Cynthia: The birth year and state where your Mary Catherine Wilcox was born interest me - did she have any brothers ?? Where did you find your information??? I am at a dead end on William Wilcocks/Wilcox - he was born 1744 and served in the Rev. War with a Virginia Regiment and family legend/tales/stories say his wife was from southern Virginia. We do not know when or where he was married but if he was born 1744 and assuming he was 21 when married in would have been about 1761. Charley F. Wilcox

Can anyone connect to Mary Catherine Wilcox, born 1741 in Virginia, died 1804 in Virginia? She married Abraham Bledsoe, lived in North Carolina in the area that is now Tennessee. Who were her parents and siblings? Any help at all is appreciated - she is my brick wall.

Sharon: Did not your "Red" Wilcoxen have a brother who was called "Black" Wilcoxen?? It seems I read they were brothers and had the "Red & Black" nicknames because of the color of their hair and did they come from N. C.? Charley F. Wilcox

Sandra

Congratulations Dave from Roanoke Virginia for being inducted in the football hall off fame in Canton Ohio. What a grand Honor that is you must be overwhelmed! The Harters

Charles: Thanks for your response. My gggrandfather was George Washington WILCOX, s/o Alexander J. WILLCOX, b, 1840, MS, d 1944 Beauregard Parish LA. The physical description and disposition of you line matches mine. The white hair and beard of the elder matches. http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/r/e/e/Donald-E-Reeves/index.html This is the address to my Family Tree Maker site. There is a picture of George Washington WILCOX and his son Sim. Don Reeves

Thank you Charley - Here is some further information (in case it will help!) Obediah Willcox was supposed to have owned a large plantation in Virginia (I am guessing it was on the James River at Wilcox Landing since that is where my Great Grandfather was born). He was married to Anna Eliza Webb. Anna died at age 58 leaving 5 children, including my Great Grandfather - Franklin James Wilcox. Franklin was born about 1832 at Wilcox's Landing (on the James River, between Lynchburg and Richmond). He left at age 21 to go to out west (Minnesota). Franklin was about 6'4" and weighed about 240 pounds. As stated previously, Obediah was a descendant of a Rev. John Willcox from Connecticut. Rev. John Willcox's children went to Westerly R.I., Virginia (Wilcox Landing), Pennsylvania and New York State. A statue of Rev. John Willcox is supposed to be in a square in Hartford, Conn (NOT CONFIRMED) Franklin changed the name to one "L" Wilcox from the two "LLs" Willcox. Thank you in advance for any help you can offer in this line. Margi (Wilcox) Shindell Shindell@bellsouth.net Atlanta, GA "Charley F.

Hello All - Does anyone have any information about an Obediah Willcox - who was supposed to own a plantation in Virginia (On the James River, between Lynchburg and Richmond) at Wilcox Landing during the 19th century. He had an ancestor - Rev. John Willcox whose children went to Westerly R.I., Virginia (Wilcox Landing), Pennsylvania and New York State. Obediah came from the Virginia branch. A statue of Rev. John Willcox is supposed to be in a square in Hartford, Conn The Wilcox family originated in a place called Lancastshire, England, as far back as the early 13 hundreds, the originator's name was Coan, and was connected in some way in the Kings household, well in some way the name came to be spelled from William Coan to William Coax, then, Cocks, then he was called Will Cox, then the name ws connected as Willcox, which was the way my Great Great Grandfather spelled his name. My Great Grandfather, took off one "L" and spelled as it is today - Wilcox Thank you, Margi (Wilcox) Shindell

Hi Charles, I notice from your letters you're line of WILCOX are from Kentucky. I am hunting family of Alexander b. 1812 in GA and his brother Walter b 1810 in GA. They both Spelled their surname WILLCOX until the 1860 census.Alex. in Trinity, CO. TX Walter in Rapides Parish LA . Alexander is in Simpson Co. MS census of 1850. Walter in Smith, CO. They both named the 1st born son William. Their sons did also. Any info. from you or anyone else will be appreciated. The census showed their parent were born in Tn,SC.and, KY. Different census different states. I'm against that Wall the pops up sometimes. Don Reeves

Robert, I have seen a Theron from Essex county also. Is this any connection. I have seen an Elisha and William in Peoria (1840) and have seen that a Theron Wilcox recieved a land grant somewhere around Peoria. Are these your Wilcoxes? As far as Elisha Wilcox and back, I can only remember that Lynn Burge has an extensive list of Wilcoxes, if you can find out how to get to her website, you may want to check it out. I have not visited the site in a year and do not remember where I found it.
