In the network section below you should see lines like status/200 method/get, click on the top line, it should refer to your page in the file column. This should now change the bottom section and on the right you will find a tab called cookies, click on it. see what the response cookies looks like. maybe that will give you a clue

This is very interesting. As I said I followed above directions and the cookie was there but not visible in the options tab of FF. Yet according to this "To that end Firefox 52 also supports the “Strict Secure Cookies” specification. That effort prevents HTTP-only sites from delivering cookies with the “secure”attribute. " it should not be there at all.

But this is not an http only site
