An American Family History

David Fox was born between 1795-1805. No proof has been found that he was Bonham and Temperance's son, but he had a close connection to the family.

He married Jane Keen about 1824 in Butler County, Ohio. Jane was born about 1810 in Ohio. Her father was probably Joseph Keen.

Their children were John Fox (1825), Anna Fox (1829), Joseph A. Fox (1832), Mary Jane Fox (1836) and Susanna Fox (1838). 

The family appeared in the 1830 census in St. Clair Township.

David died after Susanna was conceived and before the 1850 census when Jane Fox appeared as a widow in St. Clair Township.  He appeared in the 1839 Tax List of Butler County. She was living with her brother, Joseph Keen, his wife, Ellen Kean, and daughters, Mary Fox age16 and Susan Fox age 12.

In 1860 Jean was living with her son Joseph and his family. The household also included her daughters Susan and Mary Jane. They were living in Vandalia, Butler Township, Montgomery County, Ohio. Susan was a seamstress. Mary Jane was listed as a widow.
