Hi Paula, I found your ancestor on the Website: Commonwealth War Grave commission, (CWGC) You can put in a Google search with: CWGC and find all this information Name: Cox, Frederick Initials: F Nationality: United Kingdom Rank: Private Regiment/Service: Royal Munster Fusiliers Unit Text: 1st Bn Age: 23 Date of Death: 21/8/1915 Service No: 5268 Additional information: Son of John and Mary Cox, of 9, Quarry Cottages, Penrhyn Bay, husband of Mary Cox, of 6, Windmill Lane, Crumlin, Co. Dublin Casualty Type: Commonwealth War Dead Grave/Memorial Reference: Panel 185 to 190 Memorial: HELLES MEMORIAL ------------------------------------------- I didn't know that the Royal Munster Fusiliers were at Galipoli. Lots of Australien and New Zealand soldiers were killed at Galipoli. We remember them on the 25 April, which is called ANZAC Day. A Public Holiday! A very solemn day.

I do not know a great deal about my COX family in Ireland and your theory may indeed be correct although Frederick's grandparents did not marry until 1853 so I doubt if your Hugh b1848 is the brother of Frederick's father John b1864. In case you recognise any details, here is all I know. John COX - A Herbalist/Doctor and a Military Policeman during WWI. Possibly born in Cork, married Annie MC NEIL (Scottish) on 4th October 1853 at Banbridge, Ireland. Church unknown. John & Annie had two known children, John and Mary:- 1) John COX - A quarryman. b1864 in Glasgow, Scotland & died 1957 in Wales. John married Mary Ann MILAN or MYLAND on 6th February 1892 at Catholic Church, St Mary, Belfast. John & Mary had eight children but only their eldest child was born in Ireland:- a) Frederick COX. A solider. b1892c in Belfast. Frederick married Mary ? and had one daughter called Nancy. Frederick died in 1915 in Gallipoli. Last known address of his wife and daughter in 1915 was 6 Windmill Lane, Crumlin, Co Dublin. 2) Mary COX. b1865 in Magherafelt, County Londonderry. Mary married Michael Slattery in 1882 location unknown. Mary and John moved to Manchester and spent the remainder of their lives there. The reason for joining this list was to find any information on the descendants of Frederick COX i.e. Mary and Nancy. Does anybody know what happened to Nancy? Did she remain in Dublin (known to be living in Ireland in 1926)? Did she marry? However, if anyone has any of the above people in their tree, I would be delighted to hear from them. Regards. Paula - North Wales Hi Paula, I have a Hugh Cox, who was born in Co Cavan about 1848.. He was the 5th son of John Cox, Farmer, Co. Cavan. Hugh married Mary Quigly in Dublin in 1877 and they went to live in London. They had 3 sons killed in WW1, one of them was also Frederick. Perhaps your Frederick's father John and Hugh Cox were brothers? Not impossible, but possibly a long shot!! regards, Inga New Zealand ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to IRL-DUBLIN-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message -- No virus found in this incoming message.
