Thankyou for you all, I appreciate your help. Yes this is the Nellie Grace I was looking for. Someone I know needs to get in touch with the Wright family, so it looks like it will be the son of Nellie Grace, Robert Wright age 13 in 1939. I managed to find a marriage to a George Harold Wright in 1928 Gravesend to a Nellie Grace Funnell, which looks like 2 yrs after son Robert was born.

There are lots of births of boys named Henry George Cox, in many different years and places.
He could have been born anywhere - not necessarily in Kent.

We need to know the details from the 1959 marriage cert.

Maybe was a different birth year
