Obituary: Page 320.

Hon. John Willcox, the late representative of Telfair, died at his near 
Temperance in that county, on Thursday, December 16, 1880, in the 67th year of 
his age.  During the recent session of the legislature Mr. Willcox, while in 
Atlanta, contracted pneumonia, but so far recovered as to be able to return 
home, when a relapse occurred, and he died after a few days illness.  Mr. 
Willcox was elected to the legislature at the first election after the 
constitutional convention, and was reelected in October las.

A special election to fill the vacancy will probably be ordered by Governor 
Colquitt in April or May, as an adjouned term of the legislature will be held 
in July next.  Possibly the election may be ordered at an earlier date.

LOCAL NEWS.

We are sorry to learn through a private letter under the date of November 28, 
that Hon. John Willcox, the Representtive from Telfair County, is seriously 
ill in Atlanta. ( Compiler Note: Jon Willcox died on December 16, 1880.) 
Reason for no actual obituary in Dodge County Paper.  These issues are missing.

Daniel (1816-1843), He married 2nd. abt 1844, Louisa Ann Conner (1815-1884).  
They are all buried at the John Willcox Plantation Cemetery, Telfair County, 
Georgia. *****Please Note*****According to Martha Albertson, noted 
Wilcox/Willcox Historian.  The above John Willcox is listed as John Wilcox and 
all his descendant are using the name Wilcox. If you go to FIG and look up 
this cemmetery, his grave is plainly John Wilcox.
