Daniel Coxe (1640 – January 19, 1730) was a governor of West Jersey, 1687-1688 and 1689-1692.
Born in London, Coxe was a physician in the court of Charles II of England. He never actually went to the North American continent; instead, his son Daniel Coxe, Jr., and an agent, John Tatham, went in place of him.
Coxe opened the earliest commercial-scale pottery in New Jersey.[1]
Coxe was appointed by the Duke of Norfolk as Provincial Grand Master of Freemasons for the provinces of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, but died before he had chartered any lodges.
Coxe died in 1730, and was buried in Saint Mary's Episcopal Churchyard in Burlington, New Jersey.
