a#COXCOXa#HOWARDHOWARD posted by Sydney Davis on Saturday, June 6, 1998: I have just browsed the COX family page with such interest! I am descended from James Benjamin HOWARD, whose sister Orpole (or Orpha) Caroline HOWARD, married the Charles COX who died in the hospital while assigned to Drewry's Bluff in the Civil War in 1802. James Benjamin HOWARD and Orpole Caroline HOWARD COX were the children of Edmond or Edmund HOWARD, who was a neighbor of the Cox family in 1850 and 1860, according to the census records of those years. Orpole and her infant apparently returned to her father's home to live while her husband was at the front. I have searched for several years for Edmund's forebears, but have not determined who his father and mother were. Do you know, or do you know someone who could tell me? Enjoyed your homepage. Thank you,
