WILLIAM A COX (General)

Hi Mike,

Yes I have a copy of the 1900 census & calculate he would have been 37 at the time of the assault on Enos. I was sure I'd read somewhere he was aged 22 & is described as a 'young man' in newspaper reports at the time - 38 is more middle-aged. I must have imagined I'd read aged 22.

I have information to add to the forum & am tying up lose ends before I do so.

Are you related?

Reports state 'family fued' - have you any idea what relation William Cox was to Enos (I suspect nephew?) & what was the final judicial outcome?

Also did he marry & if so to whom & when & where did he die & what was his middle name (A....)?

I've trawled through post 1902 but found nothing - any idea?

Regards

Graham Payne
