Edward Coxon

Biography

• Edward Coxon was Presbyterian.
• I have linked Agnes (c 1775) and Frances (c 1777) to the same father Edward. This link remains to be proven.
• He was born estimated 1750. (DOB estimated from DOM).¹
• He married Margaret Buckham on 21 March 1775 in The Parish Church, Elsdon, Northumberland, England. (This is a bit of a long shot! In the Longfram Presbyterian church records a Margaret is shown as the mother of some of the children to Edward Coxon. In the IGI an Edward Coxon married Margaret Buckham at Elsdon in 1775, a few months before Edward's first child Agnes was born. It is believed that William Coxon moved from Redesdale to Overgrass. Could Edward and Margaret also have moved to Coquetdale from Redesdale?)^1,2

Parents

Biography

• He was also known as William Foster.¹
• William Foster was a Brickmaker.^2,3,4
• William Foster lived He was born in St.Alban's, Herts (though the 1881 census says Hants which must be wrong). By 1864 he appears to be working & living in Midhurst. His exact movements at this time are a little confusing. Children are variously born at Woolbeding, Cocking and Bognor, all in the same area but with no consistency from census to census. By 1870 he is in Bradford for the birth of Thomas. He is at Ferry Hill, Co. Durham at the time of the 1871 Census, though Georgina's birthplace is given as Coxhoe. By 1975 for the birth of Frances he is in South Shields where he appears to have lived until his death.
• He was born about 1832 in St.Albans, Hertfordshire, England. (DOB estimated from Census data).²
• He married Elizabeth Pitman on 23 September 1863 in Midhurst, W. Sussex, England. The marriage was witnessed by Eliza Jane Pitman.⁵
• He witnessed the marriage of Archibald McMeiken and Eliza Jane Foster on 18 July 1886 in St.Michael's Church; South Westoe, South Shields, Co. Durham, England.⁴
