Elizabeth Cook who married James Fox in Brixworth in 1708

[Ron Lankshear]

I am back to 30 October 1708 marriage of Elizabeth Cook to James Fox at Brixworth.
Elizabeth has 8 children and dies in 1730. The burial has no age shown
Does anyone have any access to Memorials with Age data?

I can see a baptism for Eliz Cook 24 Jul 1691 Brixworth James, Catarine
Checking the baptism I think it was 13 Sep 1691 not July
But alas a burial of Elizab Cook 15 Sep 1691 Brixworth, Northamptonshire, England an infant.
I think it must be the child just baptised.
I can no other Elizabeth baptisms that might be the burial .

Neither can I see James Cook marriage to a Catharine or Kathrine c1690 

Or in surrounding areas ...
Brixworth seems fairly well transcribed in that period

Thank you

I can't spot the James/Katherine marriage either, but maybe push the search date back a bit as they had a son James bpt 1687 Brixworth.

There was in Brixworth another couple who married 1671 - John Cook & Anne Allom. Their children appear to have been Mary bpt 1671, John 1673, Philip & Thomas twins 1675, Thomas 1678, Elizabeth 1680, James 1682, Robert 1686, Francis 1688.
Maybe this Elizabeth is worth looking into.

Thank you so much ... oh dear I should searched Ancestry with *ook as the 1671 marriage was John Dook to Anne Dare (image clearly Allom) and the 1680 baptism was Vook.. I know Old English writing is difficult. And Ancestry  "sounds Like" search does not hack it.

Then if Elizabeth born 1680 and she died 1730 aged 50.. and last of 8 child 1724 when she 44..

So I looked for James Fox and only one found was 21 Nov 1675 Northampton, All Saints
and if that is him he marries again after Elizabeth dies and dies himself in 1764 I presume 88 ... alas all burial says is labourer.

So I will now ignore the James and Catharine as their Elizabeth died just after birth
And now the next on my matrilineal line Anne Allom bap 1645 ...
Thank you
Thank you

Thank you, Ron ... my pleasure.

My CDs don't go back beyond 1650 for bpts, but Anc looks to have a John Cooke at Brixworth 1644 s/o Thomas & Frances.

Allom not a common name in NTH ... a family in Helmdon post-1650, though. Allum ? or maybe an 'H' in front.

I have a baptism for Anne Allom in 1645 but with only father John shown.

I am trying Anc search *ll*m and switch last to n. Hopefully that covers Hallam Allum etc
but also picks up Billingham

Nothing clear in brixworth but these look likely
John Allam Marriage Date: 5 Jun 1623 Irthlingborough, Northamptonshire, England Spouse: Alice Buckmaster
Martha Allam [Matthia Allam] Baptism Date: 13 Aug 1626 Irthlingborough, Northamptonshire, England Father: John Allam

But not finding anything else for Alice or Martha.... so hard to say if this is John Anne's father ..

What I have found so far http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~lankshear/Eagle/AllomAnne_JohnCook_marriageBrixworth.htm


i did find John Cook of 1687 they had wrong year 1686 and name Coos

And also John Cooke  1644 very likely 3 baptisms on 7 April..
