Thomas Cox

Benjamin Cox had eight children. Thomas Cox, his youngest son, is my direct ancestor. This past week I did some research in the 1905 Wisconsin State Census. I found the family of Thomas Cox living in Forest, Vernon, Wisconsin. The record was found on Ancestry.com. The surname Cox was very common in Vernon County. I went through the other images for the township of Forest and found William Melvin Cox, Thomas' eldest son. It was an exciting find.

    I always love finding my family members on census records. It makes their lives come to life when you are able to track their movement. And it tells a lot about the family when they stay in the same place as well!
