----- Original Message ----- From: osborn cresson Sent: Thursday, March 22, 2001 5:52 AM To: coats@hotmail.com Subject: Re: [COATES-L] Thomas and Mary Coats - 1791 Charlotte, This will mentions Thomas Coats and Mary Coats. The Coates from Sproxton, England, did not have a Thomas alive at this time. There is a Mary (Allen) Coates and a Mary (Langdale) Coates but we do not have death dates for them and so can not be sure they were alive when this will was signed. The above also applies to the Thomas Coats mentioned in the will of George Wecherly, p. 558, Book X. My sources are "Thomas Coates" (Henry T. Coates, 1897) and "Colonial Families" (John W. Jordan, 1911).
