Well, one of our members has a William Henry Coates who was born in 1845 in PA. William's death record says that William's parents were J.A. Coats (b. PA) and L.(b. KY). The researcher believes he's found their marriage record and J.A. stands for John. Could this be the same family? Would you mind sending us more on John's family and Thomas' family or a quick summary of Thomas's ancestors. Thanks so much for writing.

Hi, I think I am the descendant to the J.A. Coates of Pa that you are looking for. His name is John Armstrong Coates (30 Jan 1824(New London,PA)-24 Nov 1902 (Vineland, NJ))son of Thomas Coates (21 Feb 1791-19 Dec 1856) and Ann Armstrong (17 Jul 1796-24 Oct 1861) and married Mary Elizabeth Mackey (28 Oct 1842-14 March 1918) on 19 Dec. 1866. One of my cousins did a lot of this research and passed it on to me. I have some unknown newspaper accounts backing up some of the facts above. I have not done a lot of research on this branch, but what I have done, i.e., looking up censuses, seems to agree with what is written. I would not take this as gospel though. I have been lurking on this list for years. This is the first time that I have seen anything with my line on it! I can get back with you in the next couple of days, but then will be on vacation for a while. I will be glad to share all that I have. I have a lot more info if you would like it. There are no male direct descendants that I know of.

I am trying to locate a J. A. Coats of Pennsylvania who was born in the early 1800's, most likely from 1815-1825. We think his first name is John. Thanks. Linda Coate Info on any J. Coats of Pennsylvania definitely by 1845 would be most helpful.

Linda, My mother and I have been researching the line of Coates that has been in the northern neck area of VA. We thought that our line had come in from James City, VA in the 1660's and soon moved into Essex Co and then Richmond Co. Edward T. Coates left Richmond county without his family and landed in Dorchester Co in Maryland in 1863. His father( James)(James) and grandfather we think were from the VA counties previously mentioned. I guess I need to start researching Samuel Coats in the time that you wrote and find before and after. Any suggestions? We have not been able to get anything concrete on the first James in VA. I need to figure where to research to see if he ties in to Samuel in MD. The distance from these 2 areas is small and would have happened by crossing the water between Dorchester Co and then to Richmond and Essex in VA. My mom lives in VA Beach and I live in Indiana. Edward T. Coates- born in Richmond Co and died in Dorchester was her great grandfather. You are right. This line is not well known and we have done a lot of work to get where we are now. Thanks! John Bratcher Our line is John Bratcher, Eva Gloria Coates Bratcher, John Elliott Coates, Robert L. Coates, Edward T. Coates, and then James and James. I don't have the material with me right now but that takes us back to the late 1700's. -----Original Message----- From: coates-bounces@rootsweb.com on behalf of Coats Family History Sent: Mon 6/9/2008 9:46 PM To: coates@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [COATES] Maryland Wills - Samuel Coats - 1686 Well, I do believe there is more about this Coats families we don't know than we do know....:) I also think there is another Wilson Coats, older in Kershaw/Camden area that we know nothing about either...seems he had a rather large piece of land, which means he probably had a family when he moved there...but I've not found anything other than a survey for him...

We've had a DNA test result kit come back that is a match to kit 7513. It only took three weeks to get the results. This was a kit without a Coates match until now so that is great. Remember, you can increase your number of points tested on your DNA sample before June 30th for about a 25% discount. We just had another member receive back his 25 point results and he is still looking forward to 37 points tested for the Wiley group. It will be th first 37 point test in Wiley's group too. Most members are finding that the 37 points of DNA give them the best information as far as sorting out their cousins goes. You don't have to get another kit either to increase your points. They use your samples that you sent in the first time to increase your DNA points. I sure would appreciate some of those Marmaduke descendants getting their test results increased as we have a difference of one point between the two of us that have carried that out so far. Thanks, new member and all participating members! Linda Coate, Admin

Does anyone know of a Joseph Coats, b. 1822 in Tennessee? Thanks, Linda Coate

Hello, Benjamin Coats was the son of Joseph Coats and Rhoda ?? I have been able to find her maiden name. On May 16 1858 in Livingston County, Missouri Joseph Coats married Dovey White. On the 1860 Livingston County, Missouri Census Benjamin was listed as being 6 years old which put his birth between 1853-1855. He was born in Livingston County, Missouri. Benjamin Coats married Belle Breeze December 21, 1892 in Livingston County, Missouri. Belle might have been his second wife. His first wife might have been Annie E. Vanduzer married in Lafayette County, Missouri June 5, 1888, 1900 found him and his family in Lafayette County, Missouri, 1910 found him and his family in Adams County, Billington Precinct, Washington as did 1920. 1930 found him and his family in Spoken County, Washington. After that I don't know where was. His children were: Mary Coats born March 1889 in Missouri, she was the daughter of Benjamin Coats and Annie E Vanduzer. Zelma Coats born September 1896 in Missouri, she was the daughter of Benjamin Coats and Belle Breeze. Mildred Coats, she was the daughter of Benjamin Coats and Belle Breeze, birth date unknown, in Missouri Hazel Coats, she was the daughter of Benjamin Coats and Belle Breeze, birth date unknown, in Missouri This all I have for right now. I do have the names of his siblings. **************Gas prices getting you down? Search AOL Autos for fuel-efficient used cars. (http://autos.aol.com/used?ncid=aolaut00050000000007)

If you already have a 12 point test and want to increase it to the 35 point one, now is a great time to do it. The offer is about a 25% discount and is only good from today through June 30th. You can write me for details. Marmaduke and Wiley's group are two that really need more than 12 points to figure out the closest cousin connections. I hope you can take advantage of their offer. Have a great weekend! Linda Coate

Does anyone know who the Willie Cotes is in the 1810 Census for Rowan Co., NC? He was living near Tempy Coates (Solomon's widow) and William Coates (also unplaced by me) who was over age 45. Willie and his wife were between 26 and 45. He had another male of the same age living in the household. They had 2 sons and 2 daughters under age 10 and they had 3 sons and 1 daughter between the ages of 10-16. Thanks, Linda Coate

Linda, per your request here is my ancestry from myself back to William Coats. I can verify my relationships though will, deeds and census through William. There may be a connection to a Phillip as William's father but I cannot verify this. Terry L.

We have a test kit back and it's a match to the Wiley Coats group of North Carolina and Tennessee! The oldest known ancestor in this line is Benjamin Franklin "Pony" Coats who died in Oklahoma in the earlier half of the 1900's. He possibly has an uncle named Benton Coats. Those persons in that group that have the names Benjamin and Benton in their family might want to get in touch with him. FamilyTree DNA would have sent you a note notifying you that you have a new cousin. I hope this new info helps everyone in this group make new connections. Have fun. Linda Coate P.S. If anyone in that group would like to submit their family tree whom hasn't already done so, now would be a perfect time to do that to help your new Coats cousin. :)
