Since the list seems rather slow I'll post a note about one of my brick walls: WIlliam Pernall COX husband of Sarah Jane MYERS. Would like to share information with those having information on any of these people. Looking for any information to document the birth, parents and siblings of William Pernell Cox. I found this obit at the Fairmont State College library --- Press, Fairmont, WV, Thursday Evening, March 29, 1900, Obituary - William P. Cox, better known as "Pernell" Cox, died at his home in the First ward, Saturday. The funeral was held Sunday, services being conducted by Rev. Bennett, of the Christian Church, with interment at the Maple Grove cemetery. "Pernell," as he was familiarly known, had resided in the First ward for a number of years and the old citizens of the town say he was near 70 year of age. For some time past he had been suffering from diseases incident to old age. I have not been able to locate any information on Rev. Bennett or records for the Christian Church. The death certificate indicates his age as 72, therefore born abt. 1828. Per the death certificate the funeral director was E. Musgrave and death occurred March 25, 1900, I have not been able to locate any records for this funeral home. The census record below indicates he was born in WV and his parents in Delaware and his children as - 1880 Census, Palatine, Marion, West Virginia Family History Library Film 1255407 Page 362 Wm.
