Hi Naomi2, William Henry Rose Cox was my great grandfather.
He was the son of William Cox (b. c1805), believed son of John Cox and Catherine Rose, (b, c1819) daughter of William and Martha Rose. William, I believe, died in Moulton and was buried at Moulton on 12th September 1872. William and Catherine were married at Great Billing on 8th October 1848.
Their son William Henry Rose Cox was born around 1864 believed at Moulton.
He married Priscilla Denton at St. Peters Church, Weston Favell (now a suburb of Northampton) on 3rd April 1889. Priscilla was the daughter of George Denton.
Their first child, William George Rose Cox was born in Northampton on 14th March 1890. He died on 19th October 1974 at home in Northampton.
I too have been unable to confirm the death of William Henry Rose but will continue in my research until i can.
I should also mention that William H.R. was my great grandfather and William G.R. my grandfather.
Kind regards

Hi Mick,
            I live in Germany and doing this research with my brother in Leicester(with the aid of Skype)
William henry Rose was also our Great Grandfather.(Died around 1940 Northampton)We think.

William G. R. was the brother of our Grandmother Rose Elizabeth Cox(Died 1979 Northampton)
Married to William Charles Smith in 1919.
It was very nice to hear from you. Maybe we can help each other further with our Trees.
Send me a PM. with your contact detail and we will get in touch with you.
Regards,
              M.J.Nicholson.

Hi Naomi or should I say cousin?
I've looked up W.H. and he did indeed have a sister Rose Elizabeth so I guess that make us relatives, so, nice to "meet" you.
Kind regards

Hello Mick
I am new to this web page, only came across it by chance a day or two ago. Was looking at my Grandfathers listing on the census for 1911. Was able to find Great Grandfathers name. William Henry Rose Cox. My Father was Victor Cox born 1919. the son on Henry Cox born 1897. It would seem we share the same Great Grandfather.  I knew I had found the right family when I read others peoples entries. Someone mentioned Colwyn Road. I visited as a child in the 60"s & 70's. The last time was in 1978. I always knew the House  as Auntie Edie's house, that making her my Great Auntie. Many fond memories. Not been in touch with family members for many years now, as I have been living in New Zealand for years & years now. I'm hoping you will be able to help add to my family tree. This is all new & very interesting for me as I didn't even know what my Grandfathers name was till a few days ago. He died in 1947? Long before I was born, & never talked about.
Hopefully a new relative down under.

Hi Julie, how marvelous to hear from you. as you say, we are indeed from the same stock. My grandfather was William George Rose Cox, Victors brother.
I've posted the tree, as far as I've got, on line. I've called it Northamptoncoxes.
If you would like to access it let me know. i will need your email address.
I've got some pictures of a few of the Cox's including one of your father and some of our grand and great grand parents. I don't think you can add pictures on this site so if you  would like to see them, I can email them to you.                         
I have no information about your side of the family (doesn't that sound horrible, YOUR side of the family) but I'm sure you know what I mean.
Julie my email address is  (*)  and if you go to www.thecoxes.f9.co.uk you will find a photo of myself and my wife Jan.
As I say, it's lovely to hear from you and if there is anything you want to know about the family you only have to ask and if I can answer you I will. If I can't, I'll try to get the answers for you.
Take care and look after yourself and we'll keep in touch,
lots of love
Michael (Mick)
