Judith, This may be a long shot but probably worth a try. I am searching for information about Klocks, Kocks, Cox or possibly Kox. We have found these variations used. First name Mathias and married to Wihelmina Weller. They came to US from Germany in 1887 according to the 1900 census for Perry Township. (Cox) They lived at 941 Third St, Massillon as an owner. Any notice of a purchase or sale of the property would be interesting. Their children were: William Sep 1878 married to Hanna E Schaar Herman Mathias Feb 16, 1880 married to Edna Mae McKergin My grandparents. They moved to New Jersey but we don't know when. Helen G married to Griffith Anna Jul 1881 married to Davis Mary Nov 1889 married to Harry Starkey Minnie Apr 1896 married to Grisswell. Any information about any of the above will be greatly appreciated. If any descendants still alive are located that would be great. Thanks in advance for any help.
