The Life And Ministry Of Benjamin Coxe
In the letter of Captain Deane, to Dr. Barlow, bishop of Lincoln, vol. I. p. 294. Mr. Coxe is mentioned as a minister at Bedford, after the abolition of Episcopacy. He was, it is said, son of a bishop, probably of Dr. Richard Coxe, bishop of Ely, one of the compilers of the Liturgy. This conjecture receives some confirmation from his being called an ancient minister, by Mr. Richard Baxter in 1644. After having been graduated in one of the universities, he seems to have obtained a living in the diocese of Exeter.

The Life And Ministry Richard Adams
He was originally a member of the baptized church formed by Mr. John Tombes at Bewdly, and by that learned man was educated with Captain Boylton and Mr. Eccles for the ministry. It is probable that he obtained the living of Humberstone in this county by the favour of his Tutor and Pastor, who was one of the Triers appointed by Cromwell in 1653. From this parish he was ejected by the Bartholomew Act in 1662, and he afterwards married at Mountsorrel, where it should seem he kept a school for the support of his family.

I was born of very poor parents in the small village of Houghton, in Norfolk, Oct. 6, 1806.

I had one sister, four years old at the time of my birth, and three other sisters; also one brother from home, but not able at that time of trouble to render any assistance to the poor widow.
