General Notes (Husband)

On May 18, 2005 Maureen Ellis wrote:
On coming to Oregon we both became involved with the local genealogical society and began family research. In doing so I discovered Cox relatives all around me. A large group of Coxes, descendants of my Solomon and Ruth Cox and also descendants of William and Juliantha Carr Cox, came to Oregon very early. Thomas Cox, born Oct. 22, 1791, son of Joseph (son of Wm. & Juliantha) and Mary Pope came to Oregon on the Barlow Trail in 1846, was designated an Oregon Pioneer as he was the first merchant in Salem, OR and helped write the Oregon Constitution. His cousin, Solomon T. Cox, born, Mar. 17, 1793, son of Jesse (son of Solomon & Ruth Cox) and Margery Cox (daughter of Wm. and Juliantha Cox) also came on the Barlow Trail in the same Wagon Train. He went to Junction City, OR, just north of Eugene, and claimed land through the Oregon Donation Claim Grant. He was a farmer and had many descendants that still live in the local area.

General Notes (Husband)

Mary Lou Hudson found the following information in the Winter 1998 Mountain States Genealogical Quarterly:

THOMAS COX -- FATHER OF ISAAC COX SR.
The father of Isaac Cox (I 724- I 797) was THOMAS COX. This is well documented by the Quaker records. Thomas was born circa 1694 in either Delaware or Pennsylvania. perhaps on land straddling both colonies. Conclusive evidence as to his birthplace and parentage have not been found to date. and genealogists are in disagreement as to which body of circumstantial evidence to lean toward. Because of the inconclusive' nature of this evidence, it will not be included in the context of this paper.
The first record we have found of our ancestor Thomas Cox is dated 1722 , when he purchased 150 acres in London Grove (Chester Co., Pa.). He was married in the same year (on the 2nd day of the ninth month) to ELIZABETH FINCHER, a daughter of JOHN AND & MARTHA (TAYLOR) FINCHER. Their marriage was of short duration. Elizabeth dying in 1729/30, and Thomas Cox was left a widower with three small children. It is not surprising to note that Thomas married almost immediately again, in 1730. to MARY COOKE, a daughter of Peter Cooke (dec.d) and Elinor (Normand) Cooke.
In 1733. Thomas Cox sold his lands in Chester Co. and with his new wife and the children of his first marriage removed to York Co., Pa., where they settled on a grant of 200 acres. By 1748, Thomas owned 400 acres on the west side of the Conewago River in Lancaster Co. Shortly after, the Thomas Cox family removed to land on the west side of the Susquehanna River (included in his holdings was an island in the river). The lands he settled were uncleared and wilderness, and the area was considered to be on the fringes of the frontier.
Thomas Cox was an active Quaker in good standing, as were both his first and second wives. Their participation in the Quaker monthly meetings is well documented. Their names are found in the minute books of Abindon MM in Chester Co., Warrington MM in York Co.. Uenallen MM and Hungtington MM, Adams Co., and others. Names of their children and marriage dates can be found in the old Quaker records.
