My very short FOX line is that of my mother-in-law's family in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Her mother is Alberta Mae MORRISON (1909- ). Her father Christian Wallace FOX (1906-1985) was s/o Christian FOX and Olga <Unknown>. Christian and Olga only had one other child, a daughter, Emma FOX (1904-1995) who married Simeon J DAVIS. Christian Sr. was b. abt. 1882 in PA and married about 1903/4. Olga was born 12/25/1881 in PA and died about 1964 (last residence was NJ according to SSDI) . My favorite trivia is that according to the 1910 census she was living and working in Phila as a glovemaker at a baseball factory. Her parents were from Ryne, Poland. In 1910 they were living on Front Street. Christian Sr.'s father was Christian FOX b. abt. 1839 in Prussia and died before 1910. His mother was Elizabeth J <Unknown> b. abt. 1837 in Germany and was alive in 1910. In 1875 they were living at 359 Martin and Christian was a carpenter. Christian and Elizabeth's other children were [all FOX]: Laura b. abt. 1864 Germany Lizzie b. abt. 1866 Germany Benjamin b. abt. 1868 Germany William b. abt. 1876 Penn. Minnie b. abt. 1873 Penn. Frank b. abt. 187_ Penn. Charles b. abt. 1879 Penn. Unknown (2) I have found the family in 1875 Phila. CD, and in the 1880, 1900 and 1910 census records, but the trail is more difficult to follow farther back.
