  • From the Birch Family Tree by Roy Birch on rootsweb:  All the children are listed under both Levi Lane and Thomas Cox as the fathers.  Since all the birthdays are after the marriage date to Thomas Cox, he might be the father.  Child Martha had follow on information so I put the children under Thomas Cox. This needs to be researched to see who the right fathers are.

50.  THOMAS5 COX (HARMON4, WILLIAM C3, JOHN2, THOMAS1) was born 1753 in Loudon County, Virginia (Source: www.rootsweb.com.).  He married "NAOMI" AMY COX May 14, 1778 in Cane Creek, Orange Co, North Carolina (Source: www.rootsweb.com.), daughter of BENJAMIN COX and MARTHA GARRETSON.  She was born May 4, 1758 in Orange County, North Carolina (Source: www.rootsweb.com.), and died November 4, 1844 in Fairfield, Indiana (Source: www.rootsweb.com.).  

  • Notes for "NAOMI" AMY COX:  From the Birch Family Tree by Roy Birch on rootsweb:  All the children are listed under both Levi Lane and Thomas Cox as the fathers.  Since all the birthdays are after the marriage date to Thomas Cox, he might be the father.  Child Martha had follow on information so I put the children under Thomas Cox. This needs to be researched to see who the right fathers are.  

Children are listed above under (35) "Naomi" Amy Cox.

Sent by Frances Milne--History of Bartholomew County-Brant & Fuller 1888 page 367. "Joseph Cox, a Virginian by birth, who, at a early period had left his place of nativity and settled in Cumberland Co., Kentucky, was the first settler in Bartholomew Co., then Delaware County. He came in 1819, following an Indian Trail, making the first wagon road and settling on Haw Creek above where, in later years, the Lewis sawmill was built.  When he came, he was about 53 years of age and had a large family, being the father of 10 boys and 1 girl...Selecting what seemed a good locality, he set to work at once building a small cabin and this erected, commenced clearing a spot where in 1820, the first corn crop was grown.  The country east of Haw Creek was rather wet...But here, the Coxes, Parker, Fosters and others established homes."  

page 372.."Joseph...were among those who came and explored before the first land sales with a view to securing the best tracts. Those who made their first entries in 1822, were among others, Joseph Cox."

page 393.."Probably the first water mill, following the horse mills, was built in Bartholomew County by Joseph and Thomas Cox. Located on Haw Creek about three miles northeast of Columbus,... It ground both corn and wheat"...

page 578-Early mills.."A small water mill...Haw Creek..owned by Joseph Cox and his son, Thomas Cox. In 1831, Thomas Cox built a custom mill on Flat Rock, two miles north of the town."  

The Evening Republican, Columbus, Indiana, Thursday, January 14, 1965 "First Settlers' Graves Neglected"...Joseph and Mary Cox Lie Forgotten in Corn Field...Excerpts..."One headstone was knocked over and lay broken, almost embedded in the corn stubble and muddy soil. Cattle grazed in the field....Joseph Cox raised the first corn crop in Bartholomew county. Apples were first harvested from trees planted by Cox. Born in North Carolina of Quaker parentage [not proven] Mr. Cox had the wanderlust and lived in Virginia and Kentucky before coming to the county in 1819 at the age of 53. At that time the area was a vast wilderness belonging to Delaware county and the family followed an Indian trail making a wagon road as they came. They settled near Hawcreek five miles north of the eventual location of the Columbus settlement....Much of the information about early settlers...written by George Pence, state employee and official county historian...Joseph Cox entered his land on Hawcreek on the second day the sale opened, paying $800 for 640 acres. Later Thomas Cox, son of Joseph, built the first mills in the county, one on Hawcreek and the other on Flat Rock, but he inherited his father's wanderlust and moved on westward....There's no record of why the burial plot on the west side of Hawcreek was chosen or why Joseph and Mary lie alone. Mary died in 1846 at 75 years and Joseph five years later of chronic dysentery at the age of 85."

JOHN W. COX. For thirty-five years John W. Cox has prospered as a farmer and lived a resident of section thirty in Fairmount township. He owns a delightful country home, and his prosperity is nearly altogether the result of his careful planning and industrious labors, continued through a long succession of years.  

John W. Cox belongs to an old Quaker family of that name, originally from North Carolina. In the generation including his own grandfather were some four or five of the name, who, after their marriage in North Carolina, came north and found homes in Indiana, most of them in Grant county. His grandfather was Joshua Cox, and besides Joshua several grand-uncles and grand-aunts came to Indiana, names as follows: Mincher, Samuel, William and Julia. These different members of the Cox family became prominent in their respective communities, and all were of the Friends church. Joshua Cox and his wife, Rachael Cox, came to Indiana in 1830 and spent the remainder of their lives in Morgan county, where they reared their children. These children are named as follows: Uriah, who married and moved out to Richland, Iowa, where he died, leaving children, Joshua, John, Hannah, Enoch and Rachael; Edith and her husband also died in Iowa, and left a family of children; the next in order of birth was William Cox, father of John W.; Nathan married Malinda Overman, and had children, Sylvester, Seth, Isaiah and Rachael; J. Zimri Cox married, had a family of five children, and he and his wife died in the same year. Hannah, the widow of Amos Hiatt, lives at her home in Iowa, and has a family of children.  

William Cox, father of John W., was born in North Carolina in 1824, and was six years of age when the family moved to Morgan county. When he was about twenty years of age he visited his uncle's family in Grant county, and while there met Miss Betsey Wilson, who as born in North Carolina in 1826, a daughter of John Wilson, who settled in Fairmount township of Grant county in 1836. Miss Wilson was the acknowledged belle of the countryside, and among those attracted by her beauty and character was William Cox, who in the brief time of his visit laid successful siege to her heart and soon afterwards married her. They began life in a log cabin in Liberty township, situated ten miles from any other settlement, and had a lonely time of it for several years. They prospered, and finally moved to another farm in Liberty township, where William Cox became the owner of one hundred acres of first-class land, and in 1873 built the old family homestead, a fine brick house, at that time considered one of the best in the county. William Cox died there January 25, 1901, and his beloved wife followed him a few months later on June 12. William Cox married outside of the Quaker church in which he had been reared and was put [out] of the church, because of his refusal to express sorrow for his act, and he and his wife afterwards became charter members of the Wesleyan Methodist church, in which faith they both died.  

The children of William Cox and wife were: Nathan R., Abigail, John W., Mary, Eli J., Milton T., Zimri E., Eliza Ann, now deceased; Sarah Ellen, Elizabeth Clementine, William Valentine, Micajah T. and Emma, twins, the latter being deceased. All these children were married and had families, and all became substantial and self-supported men and women. Every son has always been free from an bad habits and all married good wives, while the daughters found good husbands.  

John W. Cox, who was born in Liberty township of Grant county, August 4, 1849, was reared in a good home, and well educated. For some years he taught school, and finally turned his attention to agriculture, and for many years has enjoyed a place of prosperity and esteem in his community. He owns a fine farm, not extensive in acreage, but highly improved and cultivated in such a manner that it is more productive than many larger places. It comprises fourty-four acres, and lies just outside the limits of Fairmount city. There is not a foot of the land which is not drained, and put to profitable production, and it is this elimination of waste that has been a large factor of Mr. Cox as a farmer. His largest and best crop for a number of years has been tomatoes, some years having had as many as seventeen acres in that crop, while his yearly average has been about twelve acres. By long experience he has learned how to brow and care for this large production, and get big revenues from all he raises. In the midst of the fruit and shade trees which surround his grounds sets a fine white house, surrounded with new barns and a forty-five ton silo. This place has been his home since 1878, and in location and value it is one of the best in Fairmount township.  

In Washington township, of Grant county, in 1874, Mr. Cox married Miss Josephine Culberson, who was born in Guernsey county, Ohio, February 23, 1853. When she was a child her parents moved to Washington township in Grant county. She is a daughter of Joseph and Margaret (Stiles) Culberson, both natives of Ohio, who located in Grant county before the war. Her father died on his farm a few years later, leaving a widow and five children. Mrs. Culberson did more than a mother's part by her children, remained at home on the farm, managed its operation and at the same time kept her little flock about her until they were grown and had started lives on their own account. She then came to live with her daughter Mrs. Cox, and died in their home in 1910, when ninety-two years of age. She was a good mother, and her influence and devotion were such that they will always be remembered by her children and descendants.  

The children of Mr. and Mrs. John W. Cox are mentioned as follows: 1. Martin E., who was educated at Fairmount, was for some years a music dealer in that city and is now in the west. 2. Burl W., went to Cuba during the Spanish-American war with the One Hundred and Sixtieth Indiana Regiment, serving until his honorable discharge. He is now in business at Alexandria, in Madison county. He married Gladys Edwards. 3. Eli W., is an agent for the Singer Sewing Machine Company, lives in Fairmount, and by his marriage to Gertrude Riblin has two children, Paul and Emmett. 4. Ollie W., is a farmer and also operates a hay press at Fairmount. He married Lora Clifford, and their one daughter is Bernice. 5. Myrtle L. is the wife of George P.[Porter] Atkinson, living with Mr. Cox on the home farm. Mr. and Mrs. Cox are members of the Back Creek Wesleyan Methodist church. Formerly a Republican voter, Mr. Cox now gives his allegiance to the Prohibition cause.
