    3. The West Briton (Friday, 22 Jan 1858) reported the following birth at Marazion: > BIRTHS > > At Marazion ... and on Monday last, the wife of Mr. George FOX, of a son. A week later the Royal Cornwall Gazette (Friday, 29 Jan 1858) gave a different version of the event: "At Marazion ... the wife of Mr. George FOX, of a daughter..." The child was in fact Elizabeth FOX (1858-1929), daughter of George FOX and his wife Mary Anne BADGE, and her birth was registered at Penzance during 1Q1858. Elizabeth was an assistant school mistress at the 1881 Census and a board school teacher at the 1891 Census. In 1898 she married Johnson TREVASKIS (1847-1933), who was the nephew of my own 2nd great grandmother Grace TREVASKIS (1820-1878, Mrs. Peter CURNOW). Bill Curnow Port Charlotte, FL, USA
