Biography

Flag of Norfolk (adopted 2014)
Edward Fox was born in Norfolk, England.

Edward was the son of John Fox and Elizabeth Dunthorn. He was baptised on 13 Nov 1803 at Great Ellingham, Norfolk.[1]

In 1827 he married Mary Cowls at Attleborough, Norfolk.[2]

The 1841 census shows him as a resident of Market St., Attleborough. Present are his wife Mary, son Charles (10) and daughter Jane (5).[3]

The 1851 census shows him to be living in Level St. with wife Mary and daughter Jane (14). He is an agricultural labourer.[4]

The 1861 census tells us little more, but provides the valuable clue that Mary was born in Saham, Norfolk.[5]

According to government records he passed away in the June quarter of 1868 at Wayland, Norfolk.[6][7] He was buried on 5 May 1868 at Attleborough, Norfolk.[8]
