I am trying to find some family of my grandmother Ella Louise Coats Beery b. 13 Feb 1897 in Batesburg, Lexington Co. SC. Her parents were Simon Bolivar Coats b. 15 May 1849 Charleston? d. 22 Oct 1936 in Prosperity, Newberry Co. SC and Zenoba Lee Roberts Coats b. 3 Apr 1865 d. 29 Jul 1902 in Prosperity, SC. His parents were Simon Bolivar Coate b. 1825 d. 1863 and Sarah Nichols b. 31 Dec 1825 in Newberry, SC d. 4 Dec 1870. She had 4 older brothers Luther, Eugene, Charles, and Floyd who all disappeared after the 1900 census. I know they all died, but I have no idea where they went. I hope someone out there might be related and can help me learn more of my Coats lineage. My email address is ehaug@msn. Elaine Haug
