I am seeking information on John Cox. He was born ca 1865 and died after 1915. His wife or at least his first wife's name was Julia and he had the following children: Hugh Lou Vely John George Dollie Donnie Earlie/Earline They lived in Benton, Carroll and Gibson counties. He may have been the John Cox found in the 1880 Yorkville, Gibson Co Census with brother Wiley Robert--The 2 boys last name was listed as Cock. The Mother, Martha was remarried to Hugh A Read. In 1910 the family is found in Gibson Co, TN Dist 7. They had moved from Carroll Co in December 1905. Does anyone have any connection to this family? Thanks, Joan
I looked at the original census record and it looks like the John and Robert in Yorkville (step-sons of Hugh A. Reed) last name was changed to COX from Cock. So maybe he named a son after his step-father? Vicki At 06:26 PM 6/5/2006, you wrote: >I am seeking information on John Cox.
