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:

Link to article in Chester Times, 1949

"Ivy Mills Once Made Paper Used For Continental Currency"

The following is a link to an article found in the Chester Times published Friday, October 14, 1949. (page 15)

The article is a recap of other histories but is especially great because it lists living relatives in the area who were contacted for the information.
