Ruth Ann,  
                  Here is all I have on Absolom COX. The first comes
from the Andrea papers: Will of Edward COX...sg.26-9-1748...no wife
listed...children: Thomas (Ex), Elijah (Ex), Absolom (Ex) and Jemima
PARKER. This is from Currituck Co. NC.
Also from Land Grants after the Revolution: 430 acres on Norris Creek,
Abbeville, SC, to Absolom COX, 6-8-1810.
Greenville Co.,SC census for 1830 shows Absolom COX,age 50-60.
Finally this notation. " Absolom COX came to IL from Abbevlle,SC, in
1804 and established a Ferry across the Kaskaskia River about 6 miles
above Evansville (IL).COX served as a Capt. of Militia during the period
of Indian unrest in the territory. COX's Ferry remained for many years,
an important crossing. Absolom had four sons: John, William, Thomas, and
Absolom." This from Randolph Co.,IL.
__________________________________
 From , " A History of COX Pioneers of Posey Co.,IN, by Rev. John E. COX
" 1931.
Absolom COX was one of 8 or 9 COX pioneers who came to this region by
1830. By wagon, across the Cumberland Mts., following the formerly "
Wilderness Trail", marked by Daniel Boone. ( The others were: "Double
Head" John COX and his brother Jonathan: "General" Joseph COX;
"Laughing" John L. COX; Furneyford COX; Jesse COX and his brother
Jonathan and William COX.)
_________________________________
Absolom is also listed in the following places:
1. Tax List 1810 Hawkins Co.,TN
2. Census 1830 Greenville, SC
3. Census 1820 Posey Co.,IN
4. 1830 Federal Census shows 3 Absoloms in IN. Floyd Co., Vigo Co., and
Posey Co.
5. 1840 Federal Census shows only two: 1 in Floyd Co. and 1 in Monroe
Co.
6. Marriage to Nancy ALLISON 24-4-1856, Posey Co. In.
______________________________
That's about it. I did have another marriage, but can't find the data.
As near as I can figure there were at least 2 Absoloms ,if not more. I
have some other children too, but don't know where I got
 them. still checking for you.
Barbara
