Hi Mark, My Grandmother Bradford had a genealogy done on the "Carter" side,(15 yrs.ago)along with it was a page with Mary Nancy Chain/Carter`s "Chain" side. This page lists Joseph Chain and Freelove Cox as her parents. Freelove Cox was born 6-28-1842, she couldn`t of been Freelove Bennet Born in 1796. I didn`t find out who Freelove Cox`s parents were untill I checked at "Family Search". I was amazed at all the research on Mary Nancy Chain/Carter- she is my ggrandmother. The only thing mentioned wrong is 2 MALE children living-they are females 1)Bertha Lerlene Carter/Bradford 2)Grace Irene Carter/Croswell-still living I`m not sure where William Cox and Nancy Ann Owens lived and had the children,I can`t find anything on them. But I will check into the information you gave me. This is worth mentioning and must have some bearing as to why I can`t find anything on William Cox: The genealogy has a footnote at the bottom of the page, ***Freelove Cox was a cousin to James M.Cox (1870-1957) who served as governor of Ohio for 3 terms and also ran for the presidency in 1920.(against Warren G.Harding with Franklin Delano Roosevelt as his running mate). *One of the submitters at Family Search recently told me that it is true...Freelove is cousin to James M.Cox. I did some research into this and here it is: James M.Cox parents:Gilbert Cox and Eliza Andrews Gilbert Cox parents:Gilbert Cox(sr.)and Anna Craig brother:William Craig Cox Might be a far fetched hunch but: If my William Cox is actually William Craig Cox than Freelove and James would indeed be cousins. William Craig Cox born:9-15-1819 died:2-1-1904 Nancy Ann Owens born:3-21-1813 died:6-18-1894 married:6-18-1836 ***William would of been 16yrs.old,Nancy 22yrs.old when they had Catherine Cox out of wedlock in 1835. This is merely a wild and crazy hunch,because I have no other idea as to how Freelove could be cousin to James M.Cox. One last thing...a researcher spotted all the "Cox" children living with Nancy Ann Owens/Bennington and Samuel Bennington in 1850 census of Oh.,Adams,Meigs page 38.She said, the census taker assumed all the children were Samuel`s because they all have the Bennington surname. I say maybe they were adopted. Well Mark keep in touch,thanks for sending all the info.,email me if anything new develops.
