Thomas Edward Cox Books, 1829–1854,
Henrico County, Virginia
Description of the Collection
This collection chiefly documents the farming activities of Thomas Edward Cox at his farm,
Laurel Spring, Henrico County, Virginia in 1853 and 1854. Considerable information also appears
on Cox’s medical practice in Henrico County in the 1840s and early 1850s. Limited information on
his family and personal life can be culled from Cox’s daybook entries. Edward Cox’s farming
activities in the late 1820s receive some attention, but nothing appears on his life otherwise.
The seven volumes in the collection consist of two farm account books of Edward Cox and
two physician’s ledger/notebooks and three farm account/daybooks of Thomas Cox. The volumes
are arranged chronologically by the earliest date appearing in them, except for Volume 7. This
volume was dated by the original processor as 1854 but actually contains some entries for 1853
as well. The volume was not renumbered to avoid confusion for earlier users.
