From another researcher:
“We were at the Records office in Shrewsbury for about four hours taking nearly 500 photos of documents. The Foxes used a famous solicitor who gave all their records to the records office, there was a big court case between John Oakley's children and the rest of the family with William Oakley acting as executor for the Foxes … I think there's some letters in the solicitors documents with Lea Hall (farm) as William's address.”

From another researcher:
- “The Foxes lived in Shrewsbury then moved to Eastbourne early 20th century, although they had money then it seems to have disappeared.”
- “He had five sons and five daughters - no male line”
- “His father left everything in trust to his ten grandchildren (George John and Helen's offspring)) but the management and income to George John and some funds to his daughters. George John was a wine merchant and appeared to live a very grand life. George John's sisters children were vets and doctors, lawyers and the like.”
