Hello, I am researching the family of William Cox who was born in New Jersey (location unknown) prior to 1776 and migrated with his family to Clermont County/Brown County sometime around 1818. He finally settled down in Perry Township around the time of the formation of Brown County. William died in 1840; I don't know where he is buried. The family stayed fairly cohesive until c.1850 when William's widow, Elizabeth, and his adult children sold the farm to the Covalts and the clan spread out in Illinois. I was wondering if anyone else is researching the following Coxes, or may be able to provide any further information: William (Sr.) married 1) Margaret and 2) Elizabeth. Possible and known children: Those married in Ohio: William E. (Edward?) married Harriet Granger Jacob T. married Mary Ann Orr Robert married Mary Ann Curless David married Rachel Brown Gideon married Nancy Bull (family name later changed to Dyer) Elizabeth married Samuel Curless James W. married Malinda Fox Permelia married Aaron Bull (family name later changed to Dyer) Those married in Illinois after 1850 exit from Ohio: Caleb married Susan Mewmaw Sarah married Wilson Adams Nicholas married Clara Ann Morton Mary Cox married Andrew Jackson Brock Ogden Cox married 1) Mary Angeline ? and 2) Marion/Marianne Hilson John Cox married Susan A.M. Hickerson This family has provided many brick walls, especially getting William (Sr.) back into New Jersey; I have heard that he was possibly from the Elizabethtown area. Thank you, in advance, for any help you may be able to provide. Claudia Cox Strobel
