The Rev Cox married me and Ralph and my mother and daddy. We got married in his living room. He had moved to Monroe GA. My mother thought so much of him, she thought it would be a good thing for him to marry us. I had never even met him before. Ralph paid him $10. I love reading all these and finding connections to Piedmont.
