  • Retain, please:

None of the references are genealogical sources. The two Journals of Caroline and Barclay Fox give an entertaining and informative picture of these influential people. Caroline has an ODNB article, as does her father. The initials AM in Barclay's journal usually mean an interesting tale of his elder sister.Vernon White . . . Talk

  • Possible keep -- As a founder of what seems to be a notable Cornish institution, attracting royal patronage in 1835. I think she is probably notable. I did not see the previous AFD which I might have objected to. The Fox family were also involved in Neath Abbey ironworks and a related foundry in Cornwall, both of which are certainly notable as producers of steam engines, principally for pumping out mines.

  • Keep - Notable figure in Cornish history; she also has an entry in the Cornwall Artists Index. Furius (talk) 20:19, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
