According to the same book, there is also a discrepancy with family records for her death and marriage dates which are listed as : Death: 9-2-1886 with her marriage to Christopher Shaffer in 1826. I have used family recorded dates instead of THE COX FAMILY IN AMERICA listings. The Cox family bible (transcribed as written by Richard Wilson-This bible was retrieved from Frank Wentzel, Groveport, Franklin County, Ohio upon his death abt. 1925 and was later retrieved from Francis Cox, Youngstown, Ohio upon his death in 1988. It is now in the possession of Richard Wilson at email: rcw44@@hotmail.com) list agrees with family records handed down to her decendants. | |||
