I've been looking at William Coates of Davidson Co., TN. His Revolutionary War Pension application is up on Heritagequest.com and the dates of his death or his wife's do not match up with the Austin Coates family bible. I suspect that the Pension application would be more first hand and more accurate. Ex. Susannah goes before a judge to request that her husband's pension be extended to her now that she's a widow. This document is dated Nov. 8, 1845, nine months after the bible record lists her death date. She lists her husbands death date as Oct. 6, 1844. Any thoughts on this for whomever has this line? Also, do we have DNA evidence from this branch of the family? LINDA COATE, Columbus, Ohio [email protected] www.ancestrees.com
