Item concerning Grover Cox in the April 4, 1946 Crawford County Avalanche:

"Grover Cox, head bookkeeper at the Dore Manufacturing Company, has bought the Biggs' home on Maple Street."

Grover's obit appeared in the January 20, 1966 Avalanche. They were living at 300 Huron Street, Grayling at the time, apparently next door to the Metcalfs. He was office manager for Bear Archery from 1945 until 1962. One additional child noted here - Mary Esther who died in infancy. No specific date of death is given for Grover but we can assume January 1966. Find A Grave reports burial in Saint Mary Cemetery, Gaylord.
