About Us

Three Generations of Insurance Agents Working For You

The history of Cox Insurance spans over seven decades of providing the best possible insurance coverage for clients. R.B. Cox Agency, Inc. was founded in 1946 by the late R.B. Cox. Upon his return from World War II, R.B. settled in Ansonia, OH and began working for John Harrison in the insurance and real estate business. R.B. bought the business in 1946 and operated it for nearly 40 years, allowing the company to change with the times, including construction of a brand-new office in 1970.

R.B.’s son, Nick, took over the business in the mid-1980s. In 1988, The Vannoy Agency merged with R.B. Cox Agency, Inc. to create the Vannoy-Cox Agency, which resulted in our second convenient location in Greenville, OH.

In 2010, Nick’s son, Ryan, took over the business as the third-generation owner. Cox Insurance Agencies are independent agents not beholden to any company. This allows us to get competitive quotes on nearly all forms of insurance. We are proud to have been named the recipient of The Daily Advocate’s 2018 “Readers Choice Award” for Insurance Agency.
