This PDF document is extracted from our book, "The McDaniels and McDonalds of Southwest Virginia" (not yet published) and reflects the latest and most complete information we have compiled on the family. Please attribute any use of this to the above book and to Jim and Mary Peterson. 165 | Page The Coxes In his 1939 family history, Ray Hurlburt speculated that the Cox family was of French descent. The Cox link with the Columbus McDaniel line is through Nancy Agnes Cox who married Solomon Franklin McDaniel, Columbus' son. Nancy’s parents, William Cox and Hannah Lamie, lived in Olympia, in Rich Valley. Olympia is just south of Nebo and an 1899 topographic map of Smyth County show’s Olympia’s location. In that same area is a Cox Branch stream that shows on current maps. Nancy’s family line follows: Rev. James Cox b. 1731, Scotland, d. btwn. 1810-1820, Saltville, Va., m. Susan Smith, b. Abt. 1735, Unk., d. bef. 1810, Saltville, Va. Children: William & Hannah Lamie Cox home near William (Cebord) Cox, b. Sep. 19, 1765, Fincastle Co.

(now Smyth), Va., d. Sep. 18, 1855, Smyth Co., Va. (Cox Cemetery, Nebo, Smyth Co., Va.), daughter of Andrew Lamie and Nancy Agnes Merlin. The origin of the middle name “Cebord” is unknown. It’s possible, however, that it’s a misspelling of the name “Debord” which was a family living in Rich Valley near Chatham Hill. Children: Nancy Agnes Cox, b. Jan. 7, 1793, Wythe Co., Va., d.
