• Notes

  The Charles M. Cox Family lived in Butler County, PA in both 1900 & 1910 -- Obit of Martha (Cox) Hughes, "Nickleville News," 19 March 1921 -- Charles lived at Evans City, Butler Co., PA in 1921 -- Obit of William Cox "East Brady Reviewer" April 1924 -- 1860 Venango Co., PA Census -- 1880 Clarion Co., PA Census -- The Informant for the Death Certificate of Charles M. Cox was Wm. Wa?el, Jr. of Evans City, PA; I'm don't know who this is but they knew plenty about Charles Cox; I wonder if it might have been the husband of Charles' daughter, Elizabeth -- Death Certificate of Charles M. Cox gave birth year of 1853
