[Dee]

I am looking for the ancesters of Cecil Carroll Fox, born in Canada,
Ontario..possibly Cobourg area. around 1895?? The family home was
located on Walton st. Cobourg. His father was the son of Irish
Catholic immigrants. He died when Cecil was 8 years old.He was 1 of 7
children. Names; Vince, Frank, Cecil, Basil, Alma, Mary and ?. He
married Dorothy Ann Milner who immigrated from England with her
parents .She had a sister named Josephine. She was 20 when she
married Cecil, he was 28. They lived at 110 Chapel St. Cobourg
Ontario, Canada. They had 4 children; Annie, Edith, William(Bill) and
Agnes Farry. I am the grandaughter of Cecil and Dorothy's son. I
believe I am the only survivor of the Fox and Milners. I would
appreciate any information oubut the Foxes and the Milners. Thank you.

He was born in Cobourg July 8 1895, his birth was registered as Cecil
Carl Fox (probably misunderstood by the registrar, since it appears to
be a family name - see below). His father is John C. Fox and his
mother is Ellen Farry.

Other births in the Ontario listings to the same parents: James Fox
born 25 Nov 1893, John Francis Box born Oct 5 1896, Bazil Fox born
Sept 2 1898, Edward Fox born 14 June 1890, Mary Fox born 5 November
1901, Alma Fox born 8 November 1903, Mary Bernadine Fox, born Nov 30
1904, Gertrude Evelyn Fox born 15 November 1907

I assume the first Mary died and they recycled the name. Mother
Ellen's middle name is Christina. Father John is a farmer. He is also
listed as a merchant, and in the 1901 census he's a blacksmith.

Ellen and John were married in Cobourg 25 June 1889. They were both 25
years of age, Catholics, married by Rev. E.H?? Murray, his parents are
Michael Fox and Cecilia Moran, and her parents were Edward Farry and
Elizabeth Carroll. Witnesses are Joseph Fox and what looks like
Sarah ..? Laroy?

Michael Fox died Nov 2 1882 age of 80, of old age, from Ireland, death
reported by son John. Roman Catholic.
Cecilia Fox died June 18 1911 of appendicitis, date of her birth is
Nov 14 1838, she's Irish, her parents were James Moran and Elizabeth
Conoly.

In 1901, John's date of birth is Sept 11 1863, Ellen's is Dec 27 1863.
Son Vincent is given as born 14 June 1890, Cecil is 8 July 1895,
Francis is given as being born 8 July 1896 (obviously wrong- the birth
dates above are from the provincial register), and Basil is 8 Sept
1899. I would take from this that James and Edward may have died.

Incidentally John had a sister called Margaret Fox who married a James
Fox 18 June 1894.

Hope this helps. That should be enough to get you going.

Hi Dee,
This is not directly connected to your FOX family however there may be a
connection back in Ireland.
Zacharias GRIMASON son of John GRIMASON and Ann BURRELL of County Armagh
married Elizabeth FOX daughter of John FOX and Elizabeth Mc CABE on the
26th December 1853 at Drumcree ,Armagh, Ireland.
They were of the Church of Ireland Faith as far as I am aware.
John FOX is listed as having been a Weaver on Elizabeth GRIMASON
otherwise GRIMSHAW's death record when she died on 4th November 1916
aged 80 at Dennistoun, Glasgow, Scotland.

Hope this may be of some assistance in tracing your FOX's back to Ireland.

Bye the way I ma not directly related to this family they are part of my
One Name Study on the GRIMASON surname.
