Cox, Rufus H,: Dau. Helen Frances Cox, wife 1st: Laura Blanche Cox, 2nd: Emma J Coffin

Posted: 17 Jun 2015 4:42PM GMT
Classification: Query
Surnames: Cox, Bishop, Coffin
I'm looking for an actual birth date confirming mother and father names for Helen Frances Cox, born, I think, around 1910, died October 13,1916 in a house fire in Kindersley, Sask. along with her father, Rufus H Cox whose date of death as record on the Sask. Vital Stats site is Oct 11,1916. Helen may be the daughter of Rufus's first wife, Laura Blanche Cox (nee Bishop) who died Sept 30,1910 or Helen was from Rufus's second marriage to Emma Jane Coffin. I'm thinking, Helen 's mother Laura may have died during child birth. Rufus married Emma Coffin on June 17,1912 in Medicine Hat, Alberta. Thus, Helen may be Emma's daughter.

Thanking in advance for any assistance or information provided.
Bruce
