A place to gather and share information about the Thomas Willcox and Elizabeth Cole Willcox Family of Ivy Mills, PA. For more information see the Home page link above or contact Deniane Kartchner at Denianek@gmail.com. My husband is a descendant of Thomas and Elizabeth's son James who married Prudence Doyle. Their son John's daughter Prudence married John Christopher Kartchner.

Note: This is a work in progress! I am trying to verify everything before I post, but feel free to send me corrections and/or suggestions. It’s also not a complete history of Ivy Mills or a website for current operations, although I will gladly try to answer any questions and/or lead you to the right information.

I'm currently working on tracing this family back to England through this link:

Fabulous info about Mary Willcox Guest Montgomery

This post by Don Maring about Mary Willcox Guest Montgomery is absolutely brilliant. Thanks, Don, for the details! http://genforum.genealogy.com/willcox/messages/138.html

  1. I have just found "Ivy Mills Baptist Lists" by Friends of Old St. Thomas that shows the following:
    "1764 Gist, Thomas of Simon and Mary Gist born April 13, baptized May 7. sponsor John Wilcox". (John Willcox is the brother of Mary)

    This shows that Mary Willcox, daughter of Thomas Willcox, was not only married to Simon Gest, but also had a child by him. Simon died in 1764 - Mary married John Montgomery in 1766. I have yet to find any further references to Thomas Gist.
    Would be glad to discuss with anyone interested.
