I do have information on the descendants of James and would be happy to share. I just can't find any information on John and where he died, came from or anything else. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Terri "

Harold and Billie Sexton met at the Coble store, which is a little store in Volney, Grayson County, Va. He and a couple of other NC boys started coming to Virginia and 'hung out' with Billie and a couple of other girls. He was a good person, when not drinking. You couldn't have asked for a better person. He was jolly, and loved to talk and tell jokes. He suffered severe head aches, and seemed to always have a chip on his shoulder. For years he said that he was tired of living, and had told Billie that when he died she would die too Unfortunately, no one understood what he meant. He died, after shooting Billie, with a self inflicted shotgun wound.

"Harold Dean was my older brother, and the happiest person you could be around. He would set me in his lap, and let me steer the truck when he went over to Chestnut Hill to pick up milk for Dad. He never failed to take me with him.
He also took me into the local country store, and bought me a bottle of RC pop, and a Butterfinger. He always made a point of being home Christmas Eve, and he would take me to the store, so Santa would come to my house. I always knew that when we got home Santa would of been there. He loved to laugh, and talk when he was out in the field working. His teachers always said he was so smart in school, and they really enjoyed having him in class. He brought the first TV into Dad and Mom's house. When I first got married we couldn't afford a TV. Harold Dean found out, and gave my husband and I one. He was the type of person to do anything for anybody. When he and Billie married I went to school the next day, and all the single women teachers were asking me if it was true, and they would start crying. I didn't know what was going on, I was too young to realize they all liked him. He taught me more about driving a car, taking care of a car than anyone. He taught me how to use the brakes, and start, and stop on a hill, parking, and backing up. Harold Dean was a people person, and was in his glory when he was talking to someone. He loved to horse trade so to speak. He would go out in the morning to work in one car, and come home that evening in another one. He could get anyone to sell cars that didn't even have any idea to sell. He was comfortable with anyone. He loved life, people, and adventure. We lost a lot when he passed."

Some of my best memories of my Dad are:
.
o He loved to flat foot. He would turn the stero up really loud and when
he was dancing in the living room it feel like the house was shaking
.
o Every Christmas he would buy a crate of oranges, and bannanas for the
family. He would also have some type of present for each member of
the family
.
o We had a dog named Brownie that would sit on the front porch and we
would be play in the yard with him. Dad would always laugh while
watching us children play with Brownie
.
o Mom always said that he would give anyone the shirt off his back
.
o Dad nicked name Nancy 'The Boss', and she was able to sit with him
after he ahd been drinking
.
o One time when we had done something wrong, we went and put on several
pair of pants so that when dad spanked us it wouldn't hurt as much

He died on 19 May 1982 in Kernersville, Forsyth, NC and was buried on 21 May 1982 in Ashelawn Mem., Jefferson, Ashe, NC. BIRTH: Certificate in possession of Kathie E. Wilde The Sexton Family;Written by Daniel Miller;page 156 DEATH: Certificate in possession of Kathie E. Wilde BURIAL: Death Certificate in possession of Kathie E. Wilde LDS: IGI file;LDS Church . My brother, Barry William Cox was born on July 26, l962. He was the youngest of seven children. He had two older brothers, and four older sisters. . What can you say about a brother that you love so much, and is loved so much by all of his family? Each of us have our own individual personalities, and special feelings for one another. Those of us who knew Barry shall never forget him, and may hunger for his presence with us once more. But this is written for all the nephews and nieces that never got to feel his touch or hear his laughter. . When we were younger we always had to share a bed. Barry got to sleep with Ann, the oldest sister. She said she used to always make him repeat everybody's name in the family before he could go to sleep. I just remember her ghost stories and how they seemed so real to me. She would really have us hanging on her words to see what was going to happen. After Ann got married, Peggy seemed to be the one who looked out for Barry. . I can't remember Barry without his glasses. I know they weren't always there, but it seems that when I remember him he's standing and smiling about something. Barry and Nancy were the youngest in the family and I seem to remember the two of them playing a lot when they were younger. . It is hard to describe him, I think he was about 5 feet 9 inches tall with hazel eyes. He had brown hair parted on the side, until he changed his style. He was slim and always looked very nice. Some people seem to have a talent for being able to put clothes together and wear them, and Barry was one of them. He enjoyed new styles and always looked very neat and nice. He took an interest in his possessions-car, clothes, and etc., and took very good care of them. . He was good with electronics, and was always the one able to fix the TV. It seemed like when just the three of us were at home that he was always the one we depended on for that kind of thing. Barry was a good driver, I especially noticed this since I was older than both Nancy and Barry and they both knew how to drive before me. Mom had a green pickup truck when we lived not far from the funeral home. Nancy and Barry would drive the truck from the house to the field and turn it around and then come back. The truck was a stick shift, and it was most impressive how well they could drive it. I would never try it on the other hand. . I can remember all of us sitting down to watch something on TV and Barry being the one to get up and pop popcorn for everybody. This is long before we had the air blown popcorn or popcorn poppers. He did a good job and always popped it in the same pot. He loved bread pudding and would ask Mom to make it for him. We all loved Granny Cox's chocolate oatmeal cookies, and would get a craving for them. We could eat the whole batch by ourselves. . We all loved Barry very much. The thing I remember most about him when I was older, and away from home, is that I could call home and talk to Mom or Nancy or anybody else, but when I talked to Barry I felt like I really knew what was going on and how everybody really was. We just seemed to have this special understanding. He was never afraid to tell things the way he saw them to me. . Barry looked the most like my Dad to me. Because he wore glasses I guess and had the dark thick eyebrows. My mother said my father never met a stranger. Well the same can be said of my brother. He would walk into a room full of strangers and come out knowing them all. Not only that, he could also tell you what they liked to do and who they were related to. I can't think of anybody who didn't like him because he was so friendly. . Barry graduated from Ashe Central High School like all of us. He was proud of his graduation and had a right to be. I know this was special for Mom to see the last of her seven children graduate. Before going to Mortician School in Ohio, he had worked at three different funeral homes. . They were in Boone, Kernersville, and also Ashelawn where he is buried. He decided this wasn't really what he wanted to do with his life. So he came back home and latered moved to Kernersville, where Peggy was living and went to school at Forsyth Technical College in Winston-Salem. He was a good student there and did well in his classes. . Barry was always good to run out and get things from the store for Mom. He was always willing to run errands and worked at Ashe Memorial Hospital to earn money and help pay for a car while in high school. He was very good to look after Mom when he was home with us. . This is just a story that touched my heart that was told to me by a lady who owned a florist shop below a apartment that we lived in for a while. This apartment is not far from Nancy's shop. I can remember walking to school through a field and graveyard when we were in elementary school. The road in front of the apartment was busy and had a lot of traffic for the area in which we lived. Barry must haved had a puppy, that got run over. The florist told me she could remember how everyday Barry would come down and get the flowers they were throwing out to put on his dog's grave. I realized then why it was important to take flowers to graves of those that you love. . Barry died by a gunshot inflicted by himself. We have never found a reason A lot of people may only remember the way he died. But I shall remember the way he lived. I the short time he was here he touched hearts and shared of himself with others. He was honest and had a love for people. And most of all he would have loved all of you. He was always excited about additions to our family. He would have been the one to bring you a puppy or toy for Christmas. If we could all see Barry again we would telll him how much we love him and embrace him. I hope that you can all have an appreciation for the uncle you didn't meet but loves you all the same from heaven above. . Source ... Kathie Elaine Cox Wilde

William has been described as a very honest, hardworking, smart man with a lot of common sense. Even though he only made it to the 6th grade, all people thought he was very educated. He talked about anything, but politics was his favorite topic. When you got him started, you couldn't get him to stop. His honesty was one of his greatest traits, he never cheated anyone knowingly. He also had a great sense of humor. He was special in always making people feel good, and always found the humor in life. He had a bad temper, and his views were sometimes one sided.
.
His mother was not one of his favorite people. She left him alone with his brothers and sisters for about a year when she married George Kirk, and they lived in Maryland. William talked about going to school, and walking through the snow without any shoes, and not getting anything Christmas, but an orange, and a single stick of candy. His mother and step father (Kirk) came back to Crumpler, and lived in the house that she had bought with the money that was left when William's fatehr died. Kirk would give his, and Cora two kids candy, and toys, and tell them not to share with William, and his brothers, and sisters. William hated Kirk, and plotted several times to do away with him. KIrk, as can be seen, was a very mean man. Because of these, and other experiences, William made life much better cor his kids, and from this his children learned to put the child first.
.
When William was young, he worked for his brother Albert, on his farm. Albert said that part of his pay would be colt that he had. When William heard that Albert had sold the colt to someone else, he took the colt and went to Maryland.

Bertice was added to her name after the death of her mother, Alberta Leona Paisley.
.
Bertice was a beautiful young girl. She went to school at Fairview, in Grassy Creek. She stuttered when she was young. She has been described as love, and gave unconditonal love. She called things as she saw them, and you always knew where you stood with her. One of the things that most impressed some people about her, was her talent of sewing. She would be shown a dress in a Sears Roebuck Catalog, and she would cut the pattern out of the paper, and make it just like the one in the catalog. A great cook was what many people said about her. She loved to eat out, and loved to travel. She, like her husband William, had a pretty rough childhood. Her mother died when she was only 9 months old. Her step-mother, Stella, whom she didn't get along with at all. Because of this she stayed with her grandmother Paisley a lot. She was the anchor of the family, and there was always good food cooked in her kitchen. No one went away hungry. She also made quilts, curtains, bedspreads, sheets, and pillows for the house from feed sacks, that held food for the cattle. She loved her children, and grandchildren, and always made everyone feel welcome who came to the house. Out of state relatives always wanted to stay at her house, because it was so homey, and comfortable.
