I just learned that my Jesse Cox ancestor (who lived around Tampico,
Jackson Co., IN; died in 1893; and is buried in Waskom Cemetery outside
of Tampico) had other Jackson County Cox relatives who apparently were
early settlers of Jackson County, perhaps around 1816 or 1817. The two
Cox names I now have are Nathan Cox and Andrew Cox. I'm not quite sure
how these two gentlemen tie in with Jesse Cox (uncle or grand uncle
perhaps?), but I'd sure like to know if anyone is researching or has
knowledge of Nathan and Andrew.
A local elderly Jackson County Cox historian recently told me that
Nathan and Andrew Cox were among the first settlers in Jackson County,
and might possibly be buried in the Grassy Fork Twp. Mt. Pleasant
Cemetery, or perhaps in the Chestnut Ridge Cemetery, which is north of
Dudleytown.
Any information on these two gentlemen would be most appreciated.

Love to hear from anyone researching the Nentrup, Kamman names.
