I am looking for information on Joseph Coates from Orangeburg. He had the farm next to the grandfather of Pollard Coates. Pollard and Emilia Coates were born in the 1790's. Their mother was Helena Hickman Coates. This is known because all three are mentioned in the will of John Hickman, dated 1799. There is no mention of Helana's husband, although, now that I look at it again, there is no mention of the spouses of the other children, except one. Originally, we thought that Pollards father was Elijah, because his wife's name was Elanor Hickman, but we now know that Helena and Elanor are two different people. So, reading all that I have read, I must assume that Joseph is Pollards grandfather, as well as Austin's (son of Elijah) and that Sion, Elijah and Pollard's father are brothers. This being said, any information you can pass on about Joseph and his children would be helpful.

There is also a Coates and Coate list at rootsweb...<g>... Char ----- Original Message ----- From: Linda J. Coate Sent: Saturday, March 23, 2002 6:39 AM To: COATES-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [COATES-L] Sion Coates, d. 1830 Beverly Burton has found a large error in connecting up the Sion Coates. There is evidence that the Sion who died in 1830 is not the progenitor of the Coates who moved to Lauderdale Co., MS, but instead it's Sion L. Coates, b. 1770 of unproven parentage now who was the progenitor of that line. Here's my current take on Sion married to Mary Perry. Name: Sion COATS Parents: Unknown COATS (1720-) Life Range: 1756-1774 - 11 Nov 1830 1756-1774 Birth: Of Kershaw Co., SC. After 1784 Marriage (1): Mary PERRY ( -Bef 1801). ? Child born (1-#1): Betsy COATS ( -After 1830). Died after 1830. ? Child born (1-#2): Jincey COATS ( -After 1830). Died after 1830. ? Child born (1-#3): Rebecca COATS ( -After 1830). Died after Mar 1830. ? Child born (1-#4): Polly COATS ( -After 1830). Died after 1830. After 1790 Child born (1-#5): Mary COATS (After 1790-After 1830). Died after 1830. After 1791 Child born (1-#6): Sarah COATS (After 1791-Abt 1825). Died about 1825 in , , AL, USA. 1805 Child born (1-#7): Sion COATS (1805-After 1830). Died after 1830 of Kershaw Co., SC. 1807 Child born (1-#8): John COATS (1807-1856). Died in 1856 in , Cherokee Co. (now Etowah Co.), AL, USA. 24 Jun 1811 Child born (1-#9): Gideon E. COATS (1811-1884). Died in 1884 in , Cherokee Co. (now Etowah Co.), AL, USA. Marriage (2): Sarah UNKNOWN ( -After 1830). Bef 1830 Child born (2-#1): Josiah COATS (Bef 1830- ). 7 Mar 1830 Will: , Kershaw Co., SC. 11 Nov 1830 Death: Camden, Kershaw Co., SC. 1832 Probate: , Kershaw Co., SC. General Notes: This Sion is often listed as being born in 1742. However, the Sion in Kershaw Co. in the census records through 1820 is consistently given with a birthdate of between 1756 and 1774, making him a generation older than is often stated. This is supported by the fact that he called for the education of his 3 youngest children (like there older siblings) in his will in 1830. If he had been born in 1742, he would be 88 and have youngsters in the house. That's not nearly as likely as if he was in his 60's. He therefore does not fit with the parents, etc, also stated for him. Sion is in the following county court records in Kershaw Co., SC: 1785, purchases land in Camden District; 1790, Belton Vs. Sion Coats; 8/7/1794 Grand Jury; 1795, Witnesses James Perry's Deed; 5/7/1798, Appraiser of Estate of John Dixon; 8/9/1799 Grand Jury. Sion is said to have married two Perry sisters, but according to thorough first hand research by James Fort of Canada, this isn't so. Sarah, sister to Mary Perry, married a Jesse Tillman instead. All that we know for certain at this point is that Sion's first wife was Mary Perry and his second wife was named Sarah with an unknown surname. (C-2398, E) Sion and the Perry's are often connected in the records. Sion was a witness to several wills involving Perrys: James Perry of Kershaw Co., SC, Josiah Pery in 1812, James Perry Jr. and Benj. Perry. (C-1796, 1948, E) Sion is probably the Sion who purchased land in Kershaw Co., SC in 1785. Sion lived near the Present Lancaster, Chester, York county lines in Flattop section on road that runs "from Liberty Hill to Camden". He died in 1830 and his will was probated in 1832. According to Joe Coat's, this Sion didn't necessarily marry the Sarah that is often listed as his 2nd wife. This is because there was a lawsuit about the probate of his estate. After it was settled, Sion, Gideon, Sarah and her infant son Josiah-? all went to Alabama. He is probably the Sion Coats listed in a platt map dated 1826 in Kershaw County bounded by Benjamin and James Long's properties. He left a will which was probated in 1830. He left land to all of his sons and many slaves to most all his sons and daughters. His estate must have been of some substance. His wife was named as Sarah. The named children in his will in the order of naming were sons: Sion, Gideon, John, and daughters: Betsey Coates, Jincey Revell, Mary Coates, Rebecca Coates, and Polly Flanigan. His will does not support the fact that he had a son James even though some have connected him with a son James. He provides for the education of his 3 youngest children to be equivalent to what all the rest of his children have been provided with, but does not state which ones they were. He states in his will that his wife Sarah may take care of "her children" as she sees best. This implies that Sarah might have children by a first marriage to me. (C-2200, 2201) LINDA COATE, P.O.

Coate Sent: Saturday, March 23, 2002 6:39 AM To: COATES-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [COATES-L] Sion Coates b. 1770 Who has the will of Sion Coats married to Mary Perry and Sarah? I need to know what children's names are verified. Beverly Burton has enough research to highly suspect that this line is not sorted correctly. There have been stray Sion's and Gideon's and Sarah Perry's floating about in it. In particular, the Sion of Kershaw Co. in the census records that was married to Mary Perry could not have been born in 1742 as msot people state. He was born between 1756 and 1774 in all census' through 1820 according to her research. This does throw off the possibility that he is the father of Sion born 1770. Let's start with the will of the elder Sion who died in Camden, Kershaw Co., SC in 1830 to figure this out. LINDA COATE, P.O.

S.C. 1818 The information from Beverly Burton does makes since ! I have just a few things to add. Elijah Coats we know from A deed in Barnwell, S.C.and a diary dated 1890 from Elijah's g.grandson that he Married Eleanor Hickman b. (1800 S.C. Census indecates 25-26years) Elijah Coats shows up in Wilkinson County before 1810. Also, through deeds in Wilkinson County,Ms and g.grandsons diary that Austin Coates of Wilkinson Co.,Ms. is the son of Elijah and Eleanor Hickman Coates. Austin Coates is said to have 3 sisters; Elizabeth "Betsy Coates,Rebecka Coates and Mary Coates.All children of Elijah Coates and Eleanor Hickman. (The name seems to vary from Coats to Coates after arriving in Mississippi and LA) (Hickman is spelled Hicksman in the diary but, Hickman in the Will and Deeds) Joseph Coats lived next door to John Hickman and Elizabeth Bright . In John Hickman's Will he names Daughter Helena Hickman Coates and grandchildren Pollard Coates, and Emilina Coates. (I believe that Helena Hickman was married to Joseph Coates) and that Elenor Hickman married to Elijah Coates is probably a sister to John Hickman. (infor.Thru Land plats showing the land that was given to Elenor Hickman) in 1802 when the land is sold .(Will information from Justin Sanders) Also, I believe this is further concluded thru the naming of Austin M. Coates (b. 1788) Children . Martha Washington Coates,David Jackson Coates,Charles Austin M. Coates, William Elijah Coates and Joseph Pollard Coates. In the naming of these children there is a pattern which I believe develops. Charles (son of ) Austin M. Coates and Joseph (Father of) Pollard Coates. The William Elijah could imply William (brother of ) Elijah Coates. (note: or Wm. (father of ) Elijah.) I started trying to figure out these patterns with my g.grandfather who had a name that would choke a horse: Simeon Charles Austin Lanehart Coates b.Oct.1856 Simeon (Maternial grandfather) Charles (father) and (son of ) Austin (paternal Grandfather ) Lanehart (uncle married Austin Coates sister Mary ) (named in Honor of) The Lanehart's had followed the Coates children to Caldwell Parish,LA after the death of Austin Coates. Austin Marion Coates (widow) Margaret Coon had remarried to Asa Anderson. All came to Wilkinson County,Ms. from South Carolina then, to Caldwell Parish, LA. Justin Sanders and I have been working together on this group for sometime now . I think Beverly has really spread a new light on the Coats Thanks Beverly.
