I wouldn't forward that e-mail to anyone. The John Alexander related to our line was John Alexander Coats, son of James Robert Coats. He moved to Texas sometime in the 1870's. They stopped for a while in Coryell Co., just south of Waco, as this was, at the time, the edge of Indian Territory. Then they moved on to Cottonwood, Callahan Co., Tx a little later. He was a commissioner of Callahan Co., in the 1880s. Some Griffins of Issaquena Co. Ms.also located there. I had the whole history of this family, but unfortunately discarded some. John A. had a lot of sons, a George Washington, and a Leonard. Leonard died sometime in the late 1990's. Most are buried there at Cottonwood. This is a different family than the one you are talking about. John W.

Yes, I was indeed thinking of William and Frances' daughters....:) and yes, Rev Will's daughter Rachel did marry a William Reed let's I think they might have married in Callaway County MO...my William and maybe James were the only kids that married in TN...William in Wilson County TN ... As far as Rev Wills' kids are concerned we have the Bible record of them as well as estate papers in Callaway County, MO that documents them all as well as in some cases who their grandkids were, since some of the kids died before Nancy, Rev Will's wife did....

And once again...the DNA project is probably the best way to help sort all this out...:) I will post what I get from Frances...some of it is old research...I might also remind folks that Thomas wife Sarah Ann also had a possible son John, when Jesse sold Thomas' land, they except a portion *that John lived on*...Frances' father I think felt that James Coats in GA, was connected to us as well...his belief that or the person that wrote the info about it, was that James Coats' family may, or some of them may have gone to Jefferson County GA...I still believe that Charles in Jefferson County GA is Charles and Ann Coats from Kelly's Creek in Newberry County SC...we have no record that Charles died in SC although some of this research seems to assume that...the Ann who died there with the daughters, I know I'm being non specific here, but this is from memory...anyway, there is no indication in the records that she is Charles' wife...and Charles and Ann did sell their land about 1792, which is about the same time that the rest of this family left SC...so I don't think the Ann in SC is Charles' wife...and we have an estate deed, a transcribed one from GA, showing which of James' kids took his land and I don't believe it named a Charles or William in it...the John in this deed is assumed to be Georgia John of SC and I did in fact find at least one reference in SC to a Georgia John Coats, not sure it was a will record or deed and I think he was just a witness to the document, so we do know that there was a connection to Georgia at least with one John...Marmaduke also had a connection to a Mariah Coats in GA...also the James Coats in GA didn't have a son William if I recall correctly... Both Frances' father and my father, although no contact over the years, have a family tradition that a James Coats was in our direct line of ancestors my dad believed he was a Quaker from Philly and I think Charles Coats in MD puts us closer to the PA Coats area...but records from that area are so scarce still, that it's still up in the air, no land records from PA on line yet....the closest we've come to any connection earlier out of SC is Charles Coats wife Sophia's son William but wife Mary in MD.....Charles and Sophia probably also had some daughters we don't know about...so that could account for no land records in MD after Charles dies, although there are no estate records for he or his wife... Also earlier research seems to but that William wife Mary in the Polk Swamp area as the same William who died after he'd lost all his family, buried I believe in Charleston SC, there just isn't any documentation to connect those two Williams' as being the same person, it has just been assumed over the years that they were.... So get those Coats cousins into the DNA project....:)!!

My Nathaniel Coats/Clarence Alexander Coates line has some really shady characters in it. It seemed that a lot of this family had scrapes with the law and some spent time in prison for murder in the early 1900's. I have court records for Clarence Alexander Coates who is the grandson of Nathaniel. Numerous descendants, now living, of Nathaniel Coats do not like to discuss their heritage but it's all history and most of the family are great people. I know Nathaniel Coats had relatives in East Texas (Rusk and Nacogdoches Counties) even though he is on the Brazos County, Texas census for 1870. His wife left him and took their four year old son from Brazos County to Nacogdoches to stay with relatives about 1899 - 1900. She supposedly went to Galveston in a wagon for supplies and perished in the hurricane of 1900. I hope I'm not writing too much but maybe someone out there knows something about this line. Thank you.

This is not too much at all. In fact a wife taking a 4 year old could explain some of the difficulty the Texas people have sometime had in following their lineage. Thanks.

I'm curious. Who did you father believe was the father of Rev. William Coats.. If you have that, we certainly would also love to know the sources for that information. This is great.

Well, It appears we have another interesting problem to solve. The member that's been writing with all the alluring tidbits about a possible lineage to Charlotte Coats's James, John, William group is related to the 1st group on our DNA page at http://www.ancestrees.com which is called Alex/James for TX/TN according to another researcher. The good news is that they are obviously both Coats lines. So anyone out there that knows you are related to Alexander Coats, we sure would appreciate you joining the group to ascertain which line is which. I thinks it's the mystery that keeps us all involved in this. :) Linda Coate, admin.

Linda, I also wish more people from the line of Group 1 would get involved in the search and share as much information as possible to solve this mystery. My Nathaniel Coats/Clarence Alexander Coates line has some really shady characters in it. It seemed that a lot of this family had scrapes with the law and some spent time in prison for murder in the early 1900's. I have court records for Clarence Alexander Coates who is the grandson of Nathaniel. Numerous descendants, now living, of Nathaniel Coats do not like to discuss their heritage but it's all history and most of the family are great people. I know Nathaniel Coats had relatives in East Texas (Rusk and Nacogdoches Counties) even though he is on the Brazos County, Texas census for 1870. His wife left him and took their four year old son from Brazos County to Nacogdoches to stay with relatives about 1899 - 1900. She supposedly went to Galveston in a wagon for supplies and perished in the hurricane of 1900. I hope I'm not writing too much but maybe someone out there knows something about this line. Thank you.

Hi John. My husband, Bobby Coates, belongs to this DNA group. He is the g-grandson of Nathaniel A. Coats. I have searched and searched for the connection to Nathaniel & Alexander but have been unsuccessful so far. I know there is one because of verbal information Bobby's father, Clarence Alexander Coates, passed down to him. The name Alexander has also been passed down from generation to generation in Bobby's family. I would enjoy reviewing the long email list as to why some might not want to test. If you don't mind sharing it, will you send it to me off list at grandbanna1@juno.com? I will check my email later this afternoon. It might just answer a few unknowns for me as well.
