Abstract:
Cox Trailers, in Grifton, is well-known in the eastern United States. Leon O. Cox and his sons started the company before the turn of the century, and they built bean and tobacco harvesters, tobacco trucks, and farm wagons. Later boat trailers were added. It was the Cox Camper, added in 1963, that made the company a household word in the recreation field.

Abstract:
Grifton’s population grew four fold from 1950-1960, with Kinston’s DuPont plant as the recognized factor. In the shadow of an industrial giant, a family owned business can be easily invisible. An exception was Cox’s Trailers. Location was an obvious factor, but offering quality service and products played just as much a role in its local popularity the past four decades.
