Reginald Cox
Appearance
Sir Reginald Henry Cox, 1st Baronet DL (30 December 1865 – 27 March 1922) was an English banker.
Cox was born in Westminster,[1] the second son of Frederick Cox DL JP of Hillingdon House and Mabel Eden.[2] He was educated at Eton. He was Senior Partner of Cox & Co and agent to the British Army. He was created a baronet, of Old Windsor in the County of Berkshire, in the 1921 New Year Honours.[3][4]
He lived in Old Windsor, Berkshire and was appointed a deputy lieutenant[5] and selected High Sheriff of Berkshire for 1919–20.[6]
In 1890, he married Sybil Weguelin, daughter of MP Thomas Matthias Weguelin. He died at the age of 57 without surviving children and the baronetcy thus became extinct after only just over a year.[7]
