Biography
In the GRO record of her marriage to Robert Fox she is described as an ironer and since she only signed with a mark she was probably illiterate at that time. Her birth does not appear to have been registered, nor was that of her younger sisters but her brother's births were registered. She was christened on 14th November 1847 at St John the Evangelist in Notting Hill, London. She died at age 48yrs.
