James and Lousia Cox were already in New Zealand, having arrived on the “Randolph”, on 16th December 1850. And, their ages do not tally with dates we know].

NOTE: Brian of nzolivers note that the first given name of “Susan” is not recorded above.

Full date of death of 3 June 1892 confirmed from further searching in March 2022 on BDM Search by incrementally changing the date range for the death.

Susan does not appear in any Electoral Rolls. This is because woman did not receive the vote in New Zealand until the 1893 Election. Unfortunately, Susan died a year before this, in 1892.

Louisa here is the x2 great-grandmother of Brian of nzolivers. Brian's DNA results show a 3% ethnicity for Wales (that can include Bristol) on his maternal side.
Now, Louisa was born in 1826 in Bristol, Gloucestershire, England and borders Wales. Therefore, Brian concludes that his Welsh ancestry is in fact from Louisa.
In August 2023, Brian asked "ChatGPT" whether Bristol was part of England or Wales in 1826? The response is as follows:

"In 1826, both Bristol and Gloucestershire were part of England.
Bristol is a city located in the southwest of England, and it has historically been a significant port and trading centre. It was one of the most important cities in England during the medieval period and beyond".
"Gloucestershire is a county in the southwest of England, with Bristol situated near its southwestern border. The county is known for its beautiful countryside, including the Cotswolds, and its historic towns and cities".
"Wales, on the other hand, is a country to the west of England, sharing a border with Gloucestershire to the west and north. In 1536 and 1543, several acts of Parliament incorporated various parts of Wales into the legal system of England, effectively bringing Wales under English control. Therefore, by 1826, Bristol and Gloucestershire were firmly established as part of England, and Wales was a separate entity with its own distinct legal and administrative system".
