"Wilcoxson (Willcoxson), John (Jr.), b. ca 1744 PA, d. after 1830 Howard Co., MO, bur. on farm, serv. KY, m. Sarah Notson."[1]
John Jr. was on the 1820 Tax Record for Clark Co., KY, and soon settled in Howard Co., MO. He and Sarah were listed in the 1830 Census for Howard County, and died afterwards at "very old ages."
John and Sarah were buried on the "family farm," according to descendant, Miss Eva May Peeler, not far from the Peeler farm. Their grave markers were later trampled by cattle, and their graves plowed by farming.
