Wilcoxons COMPLETED

[wilcoxon]

I have a few requests with precise details on going, but have found in 1841/51 some more Wilcoxons in various parts London and  I don`t know how they fit in. 

 Dates are from about 1790 to 1820,  I`m not going to ask for anyone to search registers for me, but if you happen to spot a Wilcoxon anywhere, I`d be pleased to know.

I`m in lovely North Wales and can`t access these myself.

Thank you all.

Thanks to you all for this, some I knew about especialy Arthur the Looking glass merchant, but you have given me much more to think about.
The will of John Willcoxon is really of interest.
I am trying to link Arthur of Camberwell with Ralph the shoemaker.
Also I think/hope that a Jonathon Wilcoxon fishmonger could be Ralphs brother.
There is a Joseph Willcoxon married Mary Houseman. Later a Mary Willcoxon widow  married Thomas Staley. In Raphs will his mother is named as Mary Haley/Staley widow, writing is a bit iffy.
So as you can see I`m trying to sort all this out. Baptism records for Ralph b about 1800 and Jonathon b about 1802 would help but I can`t find them on the IGI.
You may have heard of an actor Henry Wilcoxon ( try Google ) he is a direct descendant of Arthur the glass Mn.
 Arthur was a brother to my ancestor.
Again thank you, and any little thing you come across will be  much appreciated.
