Hello Here is what I found by doing a search for Gale Cox. 1920 Laurel County, KY, Newcombe Township, ED #145, Dwelling # 166, Family 169, Image #1009, Roll T625_926, Jan. 28, 1920 COX, Gale, w/m, age 62, farmer - general farming - #153 on schedule - owns - free - no mortgage, b. MO father b. NC mother b. KY; Clara, w/f, age 62, wife, b. NC father b. NC mother b. NC; John, w/m, age 33, son, single, farm laborer - home farm, b. KY father b. NC mother b. KY; Biddie, w/f. age 17, dau, single, b. KY father b. NC mother b. KY. There is a conflict within this entry with the birth place of Gale. His place of birth is given as Missouri, yet his children say Daddy was born in Kentucky. I have no idea who Mary could be, sorry.
