Cox Family Cemetery, Vernon County, Missouri ************************************************ Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm http://www.usgwarchives.net/mo/mofiles.htm ************************************************ INFORMATION: This cemetery is located on the original farmland owned by the Cox family in the mid 1800s. I visited it only once, in the late 1980's. It was overgrown with brush and trees, and not visible from the country road which was the nearest access. There are at least a dozen Cox family members buried there. My great-great-grandmother, Sarah Cox, 1837-1869, wife of H.D. Cox, is buried there, along with the child which died with her during childbirth. Also buried there is Hugh's (H.D. Cox's) brother, Eliakim Cox, Jr. The Cox family came from Greene County Tennessee sometime in the mid 1800's. The location of this cemetery was given to me by Vernon and Lois Cox of Richards, Missouri. Perhaps if they are still living they could provide more information about the other family members buried there. I just don't want this cemetery to be forgotten. Sincerely, Bob Singleton P.O.
