Sorry to be so slow--your query got lost in the clutter on my desk. In any case, I'm
afraid I can't help much. As you probably know, the name Cox is quite common,
particularly among the Quaker families of Chatham County. The records of the Cane Creek
Monthly Meeting show a Hannah: b. 1781, dau of Hermon Cox (son of Hermon Cox and Jane) and
Cathrine Cox (dau. of Samuel Cox and Jane). She could be the one who married Jacob
Whitehead in Randolph County in June 1910 in Randolph County. There is no evidence that
Jacob was a Quaker.
I did not find your William Cox in the Quaker records, but my search has not been
exhaustive.
Sorry not to have been more helpful.
George Whitehead
