Mr. Ron Gosney's Response

Hello Richard
Michael Norfolk passed on your message. Looking at Wilcox family in 1901 census at Broughtons Yard, Ferrybridge we have:

Lucy Wilcox head widow 40 born Nottingham
Amos son potmaker 19 born Nottingham
Lawrence son potmaker 17 born Nottingham
Thomas son potmaker 15 born Nottingham
Harold son 12 born Nottingham
James John son 7 born Wakefield
Annie daug 5 born Ferrybridge

Amos Wilcox married Annie Shaw 30 July 1904 and this record shows his father was another Amos.

Children of Amos/Annie:
Annie Ellen born 23 Feb 1905 bap 19 Mar 1905
George Martin born 16 May 1906 bap 17 Jun 1906
Alice May born 21 May 1907 bap 16 Jun 1907
Amos Harold born 6 Nov 1908 bap 29 Nov 1908
Charles Henry born 17 Feb 1910 bap 13 Mar 1910
Thomas Edward born 6 Aug 1916 bap 27 Aug 1916
Frank born 22 Feb 1920 bap 21 Mar 1920

There is another brother Horace (I have no details) and he is still living in Aire View, The Holes, Knottingley.
The Amos that I would know, who had a garage at bottom of Aire Street, would be Amos Harold born in 1908.
