William H Cox was my 2nd Great Uncle. My Father started his family Tree 30 years ago, then I took it over. I spent 20 years looking for William, who was born in North Wootton, Somerset, England, he and his siblings were orphaned as children. I was thrilled to find him and discover what happened to him after he left England. Sadly my Dad had passed 5 years before that happened.
