Axhorn

:) Just to say well done on your splendid discovery & What a
Brilliant name "AXHORN" to have within your Family,, Nice one :wink: John x
 
I also have Isaac Axhorn in my tree following through Isaac junior.
Isaac senior was born in Devon and had three wives, well two as he was not married to the first partner. The first mother to his children was Mary Cooper who died in 1849. Isaac soon recovered from this tragedy and married Mary Brown in the same year [who also bought other children to the marriage]. His third marriage was indeed to Katurah Cook. One busy man me thinks. :laugh:
Mary Coopers son Isaac was born 1848 and was raised by Isaac Axhorn, along with his siblings after his mothers death. The birth cert shows him as surname Cooper but Isaac Axhorn is listed as his father. However by the time of his marriage he listed illegitimate in the space for his father on the certificate. I have been unable to trace any death of Isaac Axhorn but i guess it was from exhaustion.
 
Isaac Axhorn died in Aston September quarter 1876 age 66 ref. 6d 208
September quarter contains the months July, August and of course September
