C.W. Fox Dairy


Company Names, addresses, dates:
   C.W. Fox Dairy, Fairfax, VA

Notes:
 Clarence Wilmer Fox (1913-1995)1 is listed as a dairy farmer, living in Providence on Old Lee Highway (now called Blenheim Blvd) in the 1940 US Census.
I could not find any newspaper references to his farm or dairy.

I'm not 100% sure it's the same guy, but there are 1941 newspaper ads listing someone named "C. W. Fox" as a dealer for "J.I. Case Farm Implements", located in Fairfax.2

Fox entered the Navy in December 19423, and was released from service in November 19454, so I assume his dairy was not running during those years.

In the 1950 US Census, Fox was living in Broad Run (Loudoun County VA), with his occupation listed as "Guard/Government", so he apparently was out of the dairy business by that time.
