Thank you for this additional informaiton. I found one source stating John died in Rowan Co NC but have not found any source documents. His grave location may be in Ashe Co NC. Part of Rowan became Ashe in 1799 and several members of my line, from Samuel Wilcoxson, are buried there. The Ashe Co grave register does not go back that far. I have the four pages with Wilcoxsen, Wilcoxson, and Wilcox and John does not show. I doubt Rowan Co goes back that far either.
It seems both Rowan and Ashe Co courthouses burned in the mid 1860s. It may have been an accident or the work of Union Gen. Stoneman's men as they swept through that area during the CW.
Cousin, if you want to get in touch with me my e-mail address is available though this site. If my memory serves me right we are both descendents of Samuel.
