Please check out the tax lists, census records, etc. and I think you will agree. I think this Wm. is probably a nephew of John and Sarah, not the son. This is my opinion and you know what they say about opinions. Check the records for Rowan and Wilkes County, not just Rowan County. Our William was in Wilkes County, NOT ROWAN, after Wilkes Co was formed in 1787. I also believe Daniel Wilcoxson is the son of Isaac, not John and Sarah (how on earth could they have had 2 sons born 18 or 19 days apart Samuel 24 Feb and Daniel 13 Mar ???). My reasoning for this is the 1772 tax list of Rowan Co by Wm. Sharp area of Western Davie, northern Iredell, southern Wilkes and Yadkin Co.This list contains the following: David Jones & Daniel Wilcox 2 polls (David Jones,Jr. was a witness of George Wilcoxson's will), Thomas Holman 1 poll, Isaac Wi! lcox & William Wilcox 2 polls(Isaac chosen as the guardian of Wm, Daniel & Martha after their father, Isaac, deceased), Matthew Sparks 1 poll, Wm Sparks & son Matthew 2 polls (Wm Wilcox married Wm Sparks daughter, Nancy c 1773/74), Mathia Busey 1 poll, Jos Holman 1 poll, Geo Wilcox 1 poll, Wm Whitacar & son John & Thos. Stogdell 3 polls, Isaac Holman 1 poll (all these people are relative to this Wilcox family if you follow this line through marriages). When you look at this do you see my reasoning? Sorry, I just don't see where this Wm is the son of John. Maybe you can show me where I am wrong. Judy Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
