Can someone give me a little help with finding out information for people who at one time owned land? What would happen if someone died with out a will. I am still searching for TF Cox.....Thomas Franklin Cox. I believe that when he passed he owned land in Paradise and that the person living next to him was Easley. Sometime after his death Ann (Anemirah North) Cox married Mr. Easley and they had one son George Easley. Within about a year of the birth Ann passed away. TF & Ann had several children and if you look at the 1900 census you will find The Easley living next door to the Cox family this was after the death of Ann, I am guessing that Mr. Easley moved back to his place with his boys. And the Cox girls along with one son John Cox lived next door. Baby George is with Mr Easley. I Believe the property to be off of 114 in Paradise close to where the Old Holt place use to be.. I have TF & Ann and children on cesnus records in 1880 ,1890,1900...unable to find 1870 Also from birth records of the children I know they lived in Cooke county and in Cottondale before living in Paradise. I am looking for ideas of how I might find information on TF Cox and hope that the ownership of land might help. The story I have been told is that he worked his self to death clearing this land for his family. Let me know if you ideas of where I can look for further information.?
