Thanks SO much for this!! Very much appreciated!! I think I'll look into Charlotte Jane Bisson and Emma Sheldon Bisson ... you never know how they may or may not be connected to the family.

There was a Thomas Naghten born about 1783 in Hampshire as well as other connected family who were plantation owners in Guyana, where Robert Augustus Naghten Cox was born ... same time period - it's such an unusual surname that I keep thinking there must be some connection but so far, I've not discovered it so will keep looking :-)

Had a look on Familysearch.Org for any Cox born Guyana and found a couple of entries.

Thanks for taking the time & effort Trish!!

I'll follow up on these leads but it's seems virtually impossible to find out much regarding Demerara ... Guyana and such ... at least online :-(

Sorry - Can't see anything for Charlotte Cox in 1841

Charlotte may well have been born 1840 since she was 1 yr old in 1841 Census in St Peter Port - maybe they never registered her birth?

Thanks all the same!!

1861 Charlotte Jane Cox born c  1841 Peters Le Post, Guernsey, Channel Islands, is visiting in Middlesex.

Thanks so much for this!! He was born in 1813 in Demerara, Guyana to Thomas & Francoise COX and even though their names are listed on his gravestone and his mother appears to be in the 1841 Census in Peter Port, I cannot find anything else on them.
