1. Our Thomas Jesse Cox * [26393],¹ son of Our Israel Cox [17] and Our Sarah Elizabeth Hudgins * [26407], was born on 14 Jun 1849 in MS Tishomingo, Parents MS MS,² died on 16 Dec 1932 in TX Shackleford, Albany, Nail Ranch at age 83, and was buried in Leuders, Haskell, TX (Rockdale Cemetery). Another name for Thomas was Tom Cox.

General Notes: Uncle Louis said (when he as 100)- "My dad was a woodchopper. He raised wood. I was there when Jesus took him. Brother Sam was a good hand.

Jim a fiddler. Bessie and Bertha were sweeties. Never had scraps with brothers.

Thomas Jesse and Amanda were the sweetest Christians I knew- Savonne Giddens

Thomas Jesse was trail boss on the Chishom Trail

Thomas Jesse tried to go to NM, but the Colorado River as too deep, so they went to Llano County. Uncle Glen said it was 1865.

Another family story says that the Sanders brothers (James Lafayette, and Jefferson) did not want Amanda to marry T. J., so they chased them until they came to the Colorado River and had to turn back because the Colorado River was too high. If so, Amanda and T. J. were nice about it, because they named their first son James Lafayette Jefferson Cox "Uncle Jim" after Amanda's brothers.

• Census: 1880, TX Llano County.

• Biographical note: 1998, TX Shackleford County, Albany.³ Uncle Louis Cox, youngest son of Thomas Jesse and Amanda, said that his father was

a trail driver on the Chisolm trail. He also said that he rounded up buffalo in Shackleford County.

Uncle Lewis told of the following conversation of his father, Thomas Jesse Cox, and mother, Amanda, as follows:

"Tom, I wish you would stop that cold air in that crack in the wall."

Tom replied, "I'll have to go to Uncle Rube Miller's and sharpen my ax!"

Uncle Lewis said his father daubed it with mud and stopped it up.

Thomas Jesse was a wood chopper. He raised wood. He would get up in the middle of the night and chop a load of wood and take it to Lampasas. A stranger offered him

$2.50 for a load. Thomas Jesse said, "By grab, I didn't charge anyone else that much, and I'm not going to charge you any more."

He was always more fair to the other man than he was to himself.

He signed his name with an "X". Amanda said, "Let me teach you how to sign your name (to vote for Roosevelt). He said, "They know my "X".

He would whip you pretty dad-gum quick.

We lived on the Gooch place. The Indians had killed the entire family of Gooches.

We had to pull broomweed to make brooms.

Emory, the county seat and largest town of Rains County, is at the junction of U.S. Highway 69 and State Highway 19, at the center of the county. When Rains County was organized in 1870 Springville became the county seat, and the name was changed to Emory in honor of Rains, who had played an important role in the authorization of the county. BIBLIOGRAPHY: William Oscar Hebison and Ambrose Fitzgerald, Early Days in Texas and Rains County (Emory, Texas: Leader Print, 1917; rpt., Garland, Texas:...

• Civil War: 1861, TX.¹⁹ 1861 - According to his son, Jim Cox, Israel was alive at the beginning of the war, because he gave the family's best horses to his daughters' husbands (or husband's-to-be) when they went off to war. I found some of these men listed on the Wood County Gen Web site under the listings of men who'd mustered into the CSA from Wood County.

However, Dee Flacy wrote me that at the end of the war, Jim took his younger brother Samuel, and they "wandered the countryside, surviving as best they could." I do not know why this would have been, with grown siblings living nearby (if they'd stayed in Wood County) or Elizabeth's family nearby (if they'd returned to Tarrant County, where Dee says Israel & Elizabeth are buried). M y dad often told me that his grandfather Jim Cox had been raised by an uncle, El Nathan Hudgins, who was the founder of the First Methodist Church of Grapevine. In 1870, Israel's youngest child, Samuel, is found in the census in the household of Thomas Hudgins, one of El Nathan's sons, but Jim Cox is not found in El Nathan's home or in Thomas' home

Dear Rhea, August 27, 2001

Thanks for your note of Aug 26, on Ellison ...

It is fun trying to sort the Coxes of that era and area.

Here is a note I made earlier on the Cox--Allison--Beverley connection..

No real proof, but info is consistent.. William Cox named in will

of John Beverley 1737 as grandson, is probably the one who died by

1783 on John's Island... This John Beverley is probably the son of

Major Robert Beverley 1641-1687 of Virginia -- and brother of

Robert Beverley, the early Virginia historian... ..

I need to

look at the Pendleton Will Book again. Two sons named in the will

of the William Cox wp 1821 (??).. were John Wesley Cox and William

Bolen Cox. These two probably kin to John Cox wp 1816. They

apparently were involved in the estate sale of William Cannon

about 1822.

Jerry Tonroy

Dear Cox Researcher Cousins and Beverly -- August 4, 2001

SC State Archives...

I have found the Miller links that support the connection between the Coxes

of Big Generostee Creek with the Coxes and Beverlys of Bertie NC. I will

try to give citations.

The Union County Historical Foundation, Union SC published a Map

book of land grants in NW South Carolina in 1976 reprinted 1995.

That pinpoints Cox locations..

William Cox got a grant in 1766 along the North side of the Enoree

River 400 acres, across from Warrior's Creek. His grant was in

present day Spartanburg County -- just south of Exit 44 on I-26,

along SC Highway 49. The James Allison grant from 1769 400 acres

is just south across Enoree River and along North side of Warrior's

Creek - in present day Laurens County. The George Cox grant - 300

acres 1767 is about 5 miles west above Ora and the John Cox (wife Elizabeth)

grant - 150 acres 1768 - is about 10 miles West, near

Gray Court.. William Cox later bought some of the James Allison

grant.

Just east of the William Cox grant in Spartanburg County is the

100 acre grant to Matthew Couch (Crouch) and there were other Couches

in the area, plus a Samuel Cannon grant 1765 - sons William, John,

James, Isaac. William Cannon may be son-in-law of William Cox..

There were Bobo's in area too - including a Hiram and a Tilman.

Laurens County Deed - Book C pages 47-48 LDS roll LR-1 SC roll C3

John Cox planter and wife Sarah of Indian Creek sold land to

Sandford Berry - 100 acres of 400 acres granted to James Allison

22 September 1769. Wit: John Cannon, John Hall signed 28 June 1788.

Recorded 27 June 1789.

Laurens County Deed - Book F pages 235-236 LDS roll LR-2 SC roll C4

Sandford Berry sold to Spencer Bobo of Spartanburg County for

60 pounds sterling on 28 Nov 1794 -- 100 acres SE part of 400 acres

granted to James Allison conveyed to William Cox by Lease and Release 4 and

5 August 1774. Since conveyed by John Cox son of William Decd to the said

Sandford Berry by Lease and Release bearing date of 28 and 29 June 1788.

Beginning at a beach on Enoree Bank s62w 44.20 chains.

Thence on old line s10e 30 chains. Thence n80e 11 chains along old

line. Thence n20e 28.50 chains. Thence n50e 11 chains on old line

to Enoree Bank. Thence to beginning.

---- The importance of these deeds is that they indicate that

the John Cox will proven 1816 wife Sarah -- was most likely son

of William Cox and not John and Elizabeth Cox. -----

---- Location of Beverly Cox is shown to be next to William Cox --

Spartanburg County Deed Book M pages 188-190 Old deed recorded

Mathew Couch and wife Fanny (Enoree) to Beverly Cox (same) for

50 pounds SC money sold 50 acres on a branch of the Enoree granted

June 16, 1700 (??) to Mathew Couch in Craven County.

So it is possible and probable that four brothers - sons of John

Cox who died by 1752 as indicated in Granville county NC orphan

records, were in this area by 1770's. 1752 orphan process named

John - 18 Beverley - 16 George - 13 and Amey - 11 as minor

children of John Cox deceased... William was probably older..

The establishment of the miller trade for William Cox and

probably his brothers is indicated in deeds on the original

William Cox grant on Spartanburg side of Enoree.

Sparanburg County Deed Book A pages 104-109 November 14, 1785

Thomas Briggs son of John Briggs miller of Enoree sold 200

acres and a grist mill to Thomas Tod -- one tract sold by

William Cox desc to John Briggs 100 acres on north side of

Enoree - other tract was in Union County. -- We do not

know by this if William Cox or his survivors sold this land.

Will of James Allison - Laurens County - proven March 9, 1789.

To son James - 150 acres where he now lives including saw mill.

To wife Nancy - 100 acres and grist mill. Daughter Elizabeth

not yet married. James is to use revenue from saw mill to

maintain grist mill (evidently his mother got this) and get

his milling free.

There were plenty of mills in the area then -- and William Cox

may have built several of them..

On Beverly Cox son of John Cox who died in 1798 (estate sale

May 1799) Pendleton District a later deed gives some insight.

Pendleton District Deed Book J - pages 57-58 Recorded 7 Sep 1807 -

Beverly Cox of Pendleton District sold 150 acres left by his

father deceased as a deed of gift 30 March 1798 (or 1799?) lying

on a branch of 26 Mile Creek sold to Harrel (Hamel) Felton 26

Oct 1802. There is a note that witness John Hodgen swore before

a JP in Buncombe County NC on 28 August 1807 that he saw Beverly

Cox assign and deliver the deed to Harrel Felton... (Earlier

I thought this connected Beverly Cox to NC but it does not, just

the witness.)

This deed is not consistent with Book E - page 201 16 Apr 1801

where the John Cox deed of gift to his loving son Beverly is

dated 30 March 1789. The Indians still had that area in 1790

I think. Correct date of gift is probably 30 March 1798 -- and

this may explain lack of will by John Cox wife Elizabeth. This

was probably all the land he owned and a will was not essential.

1800 census has Elizabeth Cox living next to or with a John Cox

in Pendleton District. John Cox with children for wp 1816 lived

elsewhere and Mary Cox (widow of Beverly)lived near him.

----- Back to Bertie County NC ---

NC Higher Court Minutes March 1727 General Court page 356..

<Daniel v. Cox> William Daniel Ordinary keeper by Thomas Jones

his Attorney comes to prosecute John Cox Mill Wright in an action

of Trepass on the Case for One hundred pounds damage And the

Sayd defendant by John Bapa. (Baptista) Ashe his attorney appear'd

and at their Motion and by Consent the Sayd Suite is putt respite

untill the Next Court on the last Tuesday in July next.

--- Case was eventually dismissed --

< Daniel v Benton Trepass on the case> July 1726 page 271

William Daniel of the Precinct of Bertie Tavernkeeper v Francis

Benton of the precinct of Bertie ....

< Daniel v Salter > March 1726 page 197

William Daniel of Bertie Precinct against Malachi Salter of

New England Mariner assault on 2 Aug 1725...

These entries seems to indicate that John Cox Mill Wright -

probably of Bertie Precinct - was not always welcome at William

Daniel's Tavern, which was probably a rough honky-tonk where

sailors fought with cowboys of the day.. or the owner ...

The assault that John Cox later alleged on 7 September 1726

--page 318 of October 1726 Court Minutes -- by William Hynes

labourer (in custody) may have occurred at or near this

honky-tonk during or after happy hour. It occurred early in

month -- maybe they had just gotten their paychecks..

I will transcribe that later...

Enough for now --- I hope this is of interest ...

If John Cox, husband of Sarah Beverly, was the son of a Daniel Cox of Craven County, there is a remote possibility that his father or grandfather was Daniel Coxe, son of Daniel Coxe, the Physician to the Queen, and Proprietor of much land in the colonies of New Jersey, and the Carolinas. That Daniel Coxe is said to have lived in Craven County

at the same time.

If it was not for this information, it would seem that William and Catherine Longfield Cox would be the suspects.
