This site is mainly about promoting our efforts to publish a physical volume of family history based on the Watson-Cox family ancestors and descendants.<br /><br />In particular, we are focusing on the <a href="http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:1585920&amp;id=I114699104" target="_blank">Charles Ethelbert Watson</a> family. Charles married into the Cox line through his wife <a href="http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:1585920&amp;id=I114658412" target="_blank">Amanda Irene Cox</a>.<br /><br />On the Cox side, we are focusing on families revolving around Amanda Irene's father, <a href="http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:1585920&amp;id=I114543728" target="_blank">Walter Cox</a>, and her grandfather <a href="http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:1585920&amp;id=I114509979" target="_blank">Orville Sutherland Cox</a>. A web site dedicated to O.S. Cox can be found at <a href="http://www.oscox.org/" target="_blank">http://www.oscox.org</a> and it contains many wonderful excerpts and full histories of this pioneering family that was so critical in the taming of the American West.<br /><br />For an example of where we are headed with our publishing efforts, have a look at its "sister" project, at <a href="http://wilsonbingham.tripod.com" target="_blank">http://wilsonbingham.tripod.com</a>, which focuses on the Wilson-Bingham family line.<br /><br />If you have information or talents you'd like to contribute to our project, please contact us using the form below.
