Also living in Vincent and Mary's household was Elizabeth Cock, a niece of Mary's brother-in-law Barzillai Cock. Vincent had two illegitimate children by Elizabeth: Vincent in about 1837 and Barzillai in 1844. They were brought up in Vincent and Mary's household alongside their legitimate child Mary. Elizabeth continued to live in the household, being described in the 1851 census as Vincent's niece and a domestic servant.

Living with him were E Cox, niece and housekeeper, unmarried, aged 40, and B Cox, a servant, aged 17, and described as Vincent's niece. [E Cox would be Elizabeth Cock; it is unclear who B Cox would have been, although it may have been a wrongly recorded Barzillai Sackett, son of Vincent and Elizabeth, who has not been found elsewhere in this census.].14
