William James (ca 1810 – Aug 27 1861) + Elizabeth T. Stone (1813 – Oct 27 1882). See 1840a + 1840b, 1850, 1860 . William is named in the August 21, 1857 Archibald Cox, Jr. land petition as an heir of Charlotte Cox (deceased). Note male son named "Archa." in 1850, 1860 census and "A.D. Cox" in 1869 Williamburg county militia role. "AJ Cox" is found in the 1869 SC Williamsburg County census. Elizabeth Stone Cox is not found in the 1870 census. Their children were: William James Cox, Jr.

Penny (ca 1810 - >1860) - (not known if ever married). She was living with Charlotte Cox in 1850b and in 1860a 1860b living with William Johnson, an immediate neighbor of Archibald Cox, Jr. (see 1860a and 1860b). In the 1850 census Penny is listed in the household of 60 year old Charlotte Turner Cox followed by James (11), John (11), Rowena Cox (6) and Mary Cox (28); perhaps one or more of the boys and girl were her children, or perhaps children of her sister Mary (see below). Note that in 1860 16 year old Rowena was living with Mary Cox Turner. Rowena married in 1865 and was a neighbor of James Dura Turner in 1880 (James successively had married Charlotte L. Cox and Mary Cox; one of these sisters and James were possibly Rowena's parents). Rowena died Feb. 9, 1910 and is buried in Hannah, (Florence County), SC. Penny is named in the August 21, 1857 Archibald Cox, Jr. land petition as an heir of Charlotte Cox (deceased).

Robert (ca 1812 - >1860) + Eliza Flowers (ca 1815 - >1860) = 7 children. See 1840a + 1840b , 1850a + 1850b and 1860 . Note - Archy J. Cox, William Cox and Robert Cox are listed together in the 1840 census data. Robert is mentioned in the diary of William Bartell, once in late 1828 and again in early 1838. Robert is named in the August 21, 1857 Archibald Cox, Jr. land petition as an heir of Charlotte Cox (deceased). Robert is not found in the 1870 census.

Charlotte L. (ca 1813 – Oct 30 1852) + James Dura Turner (ca 1814 – Oct 2 1895) = 4 children. She died 6 days after giving birth to her last child, Elizabeth (born Oct 24, 1852). See 1850, which shows that James's mother, Francis Turner Smith (a daughter of Amos Turner), was living with them. The Turner Bible states they were married July 1 1846. After Charlotte's death, James married her sister Mary Cox. "Ann Cox [unmarried daughter of Robert Cox?], the children Ann Haseldon [Ann Cox] deceased, children of Ann (?) Derackin [daughter of Jane Cox & James Derackin ?] deceased, Mary Turner, Robert Cox, Penny Cox, John Cox, Fanny Blount, Delilah Belfower, & the children of Charlotte Turner" are named in the August 21, 1857 Archibald Cox, Jr. land petition as heirs of Charlotte Cox (deceased).
Children of James Dura Turner and Charlotte Cox were as follows:
Alice Sophia Turner, born 27 Nov 1847 in Marion Dist, SC (now Florence Co, SC); died 25 Sep 1858 in Marion Dist, SC (now Florence Co, SC).
Joseph Preston Turner , born 9 Mar 1849 in Marion Dist, SC (now Florence Co, SC); died Apr 1919 in Florence Co, SC. He married Mary Minerva Powell .
Francis Mazell Turner , born 14 Aug 1851 in Marion Dist, SC (now Florence Co, SC); died 5 Dec 1921 in Florence Co, SC. She married James Washington Coleman .
Elizabeth C Turner , born 24 Oct 1852 in Marion Dist, SC (now Florence Co, SC); died 8 Oct 1916 in Florence Co, SC. She married Benjamin Prosser.

Jane (1814 - bf 1853) + James Derackin (1814 - af 1850) = 4 children. See 1850. The "children of Mrs. ?? Deracken, deceased" are named in the August 21, 1857 Archibald Cox, Jr. land petition as heirs of Charlotte Cox (deceased). Note that in 1860 a 15 year old female Derackin is living with James Dura Turner and Mary Cox Turner (see below). Other Derackins are also living in Marion County in 1850. At least one other child is known, Rev. Samuel E. Derackin (Feb 24 1842 - Nov 26 1893).

Ann (ca 1810-1815 - 1857 ?) + ? Haselden (? - ?) There is a William Haselden (ca 1810 - > 1870) with wife Elizabeth, who appears 1850 1860 1870 . William also appears in 1840 with a women who might have been Elizabeth, and "Ann Haeseldon" appears as a separate family. William Haseldon and wife Elizabeth would be inconsistent with Cox, since the "children of Ann Haseldon, deceased" are named in the August 21, 1857 Archibald Cox, Jr. land petition as heirs of Charlotte Cox (deceased). Ann Cox could have either died or remarried prior to 1850. The only census record that appears consistent with Ann Cox is 1840, where "Ann Haeseldon" is shown with 1 boy age 5 or younger, 3 boys ages 5-10, 1 girl age 10-15 and 1 female age 30-40. She does not appear in 1850, either having died or remarried; the 1857 land record suggests she had died.

Note that in 1869 Samuel J. Cox sells Williamsburg lands to Mary Haselden, James Haselden and William Haselden (might have been an estate settlement). It is said that four Haselden brothers (Samuel, William Micajah, Thomas and Richard) emigrated from England to PA before the Revolutionary War. One unknown brother remained in PA, the other three settled in SC, Williamsburg County. Samuel had a son, Samuel Wyatt Haselden, (married Martha Flowers). His son, William Bennett Haselden, (1844 - 1930).

Delilah (ca 1816 - > 1880) + William Bellflower (ca 1817 – > 1880) = 7 children (Henry, Samuel, Charlotte, Jesse, Robert, Mary E., Elizabeth) . See 1850, 1860. Delilah Belflower is named in the August 21, 1857 Archibald Cox, Jr. land petition as an heir of Charlotte Cox (deceased). Neither Delilah Cox Bellflower nor William Bellflower is not found in the 1870 census. However, William Bellfower (age 68) re-appears in the 1880 census with an age 68 woman, Eliza.

John (1820 - < 1870) + Susannah Louise Owens (ca 1822 - >1880) = 6 children. See 1850, 1860, 1870, 1880 . John is named in the August 21, 1857 Archibald Cox, Jr. land petition as an heir of Charlotte Cox (deceased). Based on the 1880 census, he may have started a second family.

Mary (ca 1821 – Dec 29 1876) + James Dura Turner (ca 1814 – Oct 2 1895) = 3 children. She was single, around age 22, and living with her mother Charlotte Turner Cox in 1850 along with 3 young children James (11 ), John (11) and Rowena (6); perhaps one or more were her children. Note Mary was married by 1860, that in 1860 16 year old Rowena was living with Mary and James; perhaps Rowena was an out-of-wedlock or orphan child of Mary or Mary's older sister Penny. Also see 1870 and 1880. Her gravestone shows 1876 as the year of her death, and the Turner Bible gives Dec 29 1886 as the date. Mary Cox appears with James in the 1870 census, but not in the 1880 census; it is assumed that the Bible entry year is incorrect.
Mary Turner is named in the August 21, 1857 Archibald Cox, Jr. land petition as an heir of Charlotte Cox (deceased). The Turner Bible indicates that she married James on Feb 23 1854. Her gravestone is here.
Children of James Dura Turner and Mary Cox were as follows:
Adger Legare Turner , born 2 Jul 1857 in Marion Dist, SC (now Florence Co, SC); died 29 Dec 1924 in Florence Co, SC. He married on 18 Apr 1878 in Marion Co, SC (now Florence Co, SC) Ida Emaline Altman , born 1861/62 in Marion Dist, SC (now Florence Co, SC).
Emaline Elliveen Turner , born 29 May 1859 in Marion Dist, SC (now Florence Co, SC); died 8 Jan 1937. She married on 19 Mar 1879 in Marion Co, SC (now Florence Co, SC) James M Prosser .
Robert Frazier Turner , born 21 Jul 1862 in Marion Dist, SC (now Florence Co, SC); died 17 Sep 1929 in Florence Co, SC. He married on 31 Dec 1885 in Marion Co, SC (now Florence Co, SC) Amelia Selima Creel, born 1868/69 in Marion Co, SC (now Florence Co, SC), daughter of Decatur Creel and Cassandra (---).

From Marty Grant's website:

"Charlotte Turner was born ca 1789/90 (per the 1850 census) in the area that was then Georgetown District, SC, but became Marion District in 1798 (and Marion County in 1868, and finally Florence County in 1888). Charlotte is a proven child of Amos Turner (Equity Roll # 45, 9 Jul 1831). She was married to Archibald Cox (administrator of her father's estate). They were married prior to ca 1810. Archibald Cox was listed on the 1810 census in Marion District (don't have enumerations yet).

He was listed on the 1820 census ("120001-51010").
He was listed on the 1830 census (page 9 "11100001-00141001")
He was listed on the 1840 census (page 143 "100100001-00012001")

Archibald Cox died before 1850. Charlotte Cox was listed on the 1850 census in Marion District, with several children, and apparently several grandchildren as well. (I've listed some of these grandchildren as her children, so as not to lose track of them, pending identification of their parents). My guess is that these grandchildren are children of Penny Cox, but I have no proof of that so far. Two of the boys (James and John) may be children of Archibald Cox Jr who had sons by these names (and were nowhere to be found in the 1850 census). In 1850 Charlotte was listed just a few houses from her sister Mary Turner Avant and just a few from her sister Francis Turner Smith.
Charlotte Turner Cox wasn't found on the 1860 census, so I suspect she had died by then, or perhaps had remarried. Some of their children were found in 1860 and later census records in Pee Dee township."

She died between February 2, 1854 (date of land grant to her and her son Archibald Cox, Jr.) and Sep 1, 1857.
