Thank you for sharing what Cox info you have. I don't think this is my Isaac, but will keep the info in mind just in case it might be a link. I think mine was born 1795-1799 in Pennsylvania. Thanks again.
I am back to doing genealogy research after having to take a break of several years because I just didn't have time to spend on it. I'm starting with my Cox line and have come upon an interesting book online called The Cox Family in America that gives a lot of history on the several Coxes that came to America from England, Sweden, Holland, Scotland to name some. And even includes early genealogies for many of them. From what I understand Coxes from these different lines spread far and wide across America. Since certain names were so common in different lines (like Isaac, Thomas, Wm), I still haven't connected my Isaac to which one he may have descended from. What I do know is that his folks migrated from Greene Co, PA over to the area of Tyler Co., WV by 1850 when he shows up on the census there. From what I have gathered he was born about 1795 in PA and married Mary Wise, probably also from PA and probably married they were married in PA but I haven't found a marriage certificate.
Don, I really appreciate your response to my inquiry about Isaac and Mary Cox, several years ago, that refers to a Cox-Haines connections. However, although I do have a Haines line in my ancestry, it is connected to my Bowie lineage which is a different branch altogether than my Cox lineage.
