Notes for Henry William Cox
He was recorded in the 1900 census as William H. Cox age 9, born May 1891, but in all later records he is recorded as either Henry W. Cox or just Henry.
His WW I draft registration card, filed 5 June 1917, records Henry William Cox, age 26, residence Wyatt, Elliott Co., Ky, born 3 May 1891 in Fraley, Ky, occupation farming, self-employed, married supporting a wife and 2 children.
Do not confuse him with Richard “Henry” Cox born 20 Sep 1891, son of Rev. Wesley Cox.

Notes for Henry William & Media (Family)
I cannot find a marriage record for them in Rowan Co., so they were probably married in Elliott.
