A Portrait and Biographical Record of Boone, Clinton and Hendricks Counties, Ind.,
A.W. Bowen, Chicago, 1895, pages 269:
ASA COX, who was born in Jefferson county, Ind., January 12, 1824, is a son of Er and Elizabeth (Lame) Cox, natives of New Jersey and of German descent. The family came to Boone county, Ind., in 1829, about thirteen years after the state was admitted to the Union, and when the county was a wilderness. Here Mr. Cox hewed out a farm and successfully followed his vocation until his death in 1855, his wife having preceded him to an early grave some years. They were the parents of eleven children, and of these Asa was brought up to the useful calling which had been followed by his father, and was reared under his careful training.
Asa has never married. His farm is productive, and Mr. Cox is a model citizen as well as a model farmer, his work in the latter capacity being unexcelled by any other farmer in the town- ship. In politics Mr. Cox is a democrat.
