Notes:
According to his death certificate, James Logan Cox died due to an auto accident. He apparently died at the scene or shortly thereafter since his death certificate said he was at the location of his death 1 day and it was outside the city limits (rather than at Harriman Hospital, which was inside the city limits). He suffered a fractured skull, fractured back, and broken ribs. The death certificate identifies the interval between onset and death as "sudden".
His occupation is listed as "farmer."
The death certificate also identifies his parents as Robert and Mary Cox and his wife as Gypsie Cox of Oliver Springs Rt #2.
On an unsourced family tree notation in Ancestry. John Alexander Logan Cox and family are listed as in the Orchard View community in Roane County. This would be an area on the Old Harriman Highway that runs parallel to Highway 61 between Oliver Springs and Harriman.
The middle name of "Alexander" quite possibly does not belong to John Logan (or sometimes referred to as Logan J) Cox. It does not appear on his death certificate nor in census records. There are, however, a John Alexander Cox and a John A Cox in Knox County. Since the name "Alexander" is shown on one family tree (and several others that have the exact same information", it could be that an original poster confused the two John Coxes and everyone copied from that poster--as Ancestry.com trees frequently do.
J Spradlin 2016
Early in their marriage, according to the 1910 census, John was a Sawyer in a Steam Mill.
By 1920 John Logan was a farmer and he and Gypsie had 5 children: Ina, Carl, Elmer, Elden and Albert.
In the 1930 census, John Logan Cox was a timber inspector for the lumber industry. They have added a son, John Richard Cox, and a daughter, Mildred C Cox, to their family.
In 1940 he is listed as a farmer owning his own land, with zero income from farming but income from another (unidentified) source. They have added Mary Helen to their list of children. Their household is listed as on May Valley Road.
Also in their household is Edna Ruth Nelson Cox, daughter-in-law, married to Elden Walter Cox.
Although he did not serve in the military according to family members, he does have a WWII draftFamily/Spouse: Gypsie Blanche Davis. Gypsie was born on 8 Mar 1887; died on 7 Aug 1956 in Orchard View, Roane, Tennessee, United States. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
