Tales of the Willcox family of Charles City County, Virginia

This site is dedicated to sharing the family history I have uncovered in over 20 years of researching the Willcox family that originated in England and immigrated to Charles City County, Virginia in the 1600s.


I and thousands of people descend from this line. If you landed on this page, you and I may be related!

Perhaps you hold some nuggets of information that would help me as well. Please share!


NOTE: I have created a page to see the posts in chronological order to make it easy to start from the beginning.
