About the Coox Surname

Many Coox families will find their roots under Cox, the form most records use. The name is usually explained as “Rooster”. The extra “o” in Coox is a spelling habit rather than a different name. Local scribes, dialects and emigration all left their mark on how the name was written. The same family of names includes Coxe and Coxon.
