COX
Karleen Cox April 5, 2005
Hi, I am in desparate need of some help. I have a great great grandfather who lived in Lee County Arkansas in 1870-1927 (Francis "Frank" M. COX and Magret (Maggie) Rose COX). I know they are buried in Hopewell Cemetery but I have a feeling his mother Georgiana? LEWIS) is buried there as well. They also had 6 children die, I imagine they are buried there as well, is there any way I can find this out? I am stuck in my genealogy. It is as if the family dropped off the face of the earth. I know Georgianna had 2 daughters, Laura LEWIS who married Richard Dick BLOUNT (and had 4 children with, but I cannot find any of the kids) I do know one of Laura's daughters Georgia V. was a teacher. And Georgianna had Susan LEWIS who married Lon RODGERS and then a TILLERY, there was also a son Fielding Warner LEWIS, but like I said they all have seemed to disappear in Lee County Arkansas, if you have any ideas please let me know. Thank you so much.
