Old Time Cowmen of the Sun River Country Cox and His Texas Longhorns
The Sun River stock pavilion recalls the pioneer cattlemen led by Konrad Kohrs Dan Flowerree H D Hogan R S Ford Tom Dunn and John R Fox with John R Cox remembered as the last of the six to die. Cox migrated from Missouri in 1865 and drove cattle to Montana later teaming with W A Clark in freight cattle operations and guiding Texas herds to markets while facing Sitting Bull’s band. He later routed cattle to Apple Creek and Chicago market, enduring hardships on the trail and in camps and forming a lasting link to Sun River’s cattle heritage.
