More about Owen Cox, English captain

Although Owen Cox was reported to have been killed at Scheveningen, as reported by Whitelock in his Memorials, that was incorrect. Page 373 of The First Dutch War, Vol.V, has the letter saying he was killed. The note on Page 390 corrects the record. Pages 95 and 96 of R. C. Anderson's book Naval Wars in the Baltic apparently notes the continued career of Owen Cox. A squadron was sent out from Landskrona on July 6th, 1659, under the command of "Major Coxe" to the Little Belt, arriving on the 20th. The Swedes defeated the combined Danish-Dutch squadron. This was where the Dutch Monnikendam (32 guns) was lost. After the battle, Coxe burnt 30 tranports at Aarhuus.
