The following comes from p. 602 of Spartanburg County / District South Carolina: Deed Abstracts Books A-T 1785-1827 (1752-1827) by Albert Bruce Pruitt. The heading at the top of the page says "Book Q." The entry reads: "p. 314-316 Jan. 29, 1814 Hardy Fluker (Edgefield Dist) to Marmeduke Coate (Newberry Dist); for $90 sold 200 ac; border: Venable's Crossroads, John Burnet, Cart Road Br, George Rowlan, School House Br, and Leonard Cardin; part of 890 ac survey Jan. 21, 1793 for Leonard Cardin. Witness Henry Coate and Joel Bell. Signed Hardy Fluker. Wit. oath Jun. 17, 1815 (Newberry Dist) Joel Bell to Y. J. Harrington JQ. Rec. Jul. 2, 1819." (Spelling and punctuation are as they appear in Pruitt's book.) This is of interest to me because it is the first time I ever have seen the names Coats and Burnett (in any spelling) on the same sheet of paper. I found this while looking for the parents of Juliana Coats and of her husband, Jeremiah W. Burnett. They ended up in Perry Co., AL, about 1850. With them was Margaret Coats, whose relationship to Juliana is unknown. Mary Carolyn Sparks mcsparks@yahoo.com mcsparks@speedgate.net

On p. 49 of Miscellaneous Alabama Newspaper Abstracts, Vol. 2, the name "Samuel Coat" appears under "Lists of letters remaining at the post office in Selma July 1, 1822." (Selma is in Dallas County, AL, not too far from the Perry Co. line) Does anyone recognize this name? Mary Carolyn Sparks mcsparks@yahoo.com

Would the Coats List Owner please E-mail me? Thank You, Tom hagrid@wt.net

Hi...well, my connection to the Coats line is Rev William Coats married Nancy Baker out of Smith County TN, who moved to Callaway County MO in 1817...their son William married first Patsy Tracy and second Cena Callaway, William and Cena's son Huff Demetrius Coats married Louisa Jane Craig, their son James E. Coats married Muzetta Nigh, their son Robert Paul Coats, my grandfather, married Leah Dotts and their son Claud Russell Coats, my father, married Anna Belle Frisinger...whew... Anyway, I've documented all back to Rev William and Nancy to Smith County TN to 1802 in the Brush Creek Primitive Baptist Church Records...according to the Callaway County History he came from SC to Smith County TN .... but I'll tell you, that group in SC is sooooo confusing...there are a bundle of Johns, Wilsons, Williams etc...some have thought that Rev William Coats father was William Coats on Kings Creek in Newberry County SC...but I'm not sure of that because there is another William in Bedford County TN where the rest of William of Kings Creeks kids went...well Barton I guess went to Robertson County TN.... Anyway, there seems to be lots of theories and few documents in most cases...so I'm just gathering documents at this point and I've found another Charles, James and William in Jefferson County GA and another group of Coats in Richmond County GA...they may and the Richmond group came probably from SC to GA...not sure about the Jefferson group...I'm checking into these records now... Soooo...that's sorta it in a nutshell....there is an Analysis section in the Coats Archive that has documented some of this info and some of the various theories...although I haven't tackled the Williams in SC yet...

Hi Billie Beck I think that our families must have traveled in the same circles, maybe neighbors. I have only one Marth "Mattie"Coats b 1865, Antelope Valley, Colusa County, California; married Frank V. Gilpatric, her father was William Alexander Coats b. 12 Sep 1832, Boone County, Missouri, d 26 Apr 1912, Yuba City, Sutter, California, married Isabella G. Boone. I have two Henry Coats. Henry Coats b abt 1780 North Carolina, maried Nancy Davis, 28 Feb 1827 Boone Co., Missouri. They had the following children: Sarah b 1829 Boone, MO; Hardin b 1833 Boone, MO; Susan Ann b 1835 m Robert Coats 8 nov 1853;Elijah b 1837 Boone, MO; Catherine A. b.1939 Boone, MO; Elizabeth b 1842 Boone, MO; Isabella b 1844 Boone, MO; Harriet b 1844 Boone, MO; Sally Ann m James Gipson 27 Nov 1853. My Great-Grandfather Henry Clay Coats b 1850 Rocky Fork, Boone, MO d 26 Feb 1899 Sturgeon, Boone, MO, m Mary Ann Cornelison 25 Feb 1876, Father James Coats, mother Sarah Elizabeth Noe. They had the following children: Carrie Elizabeth b 26 Nov 1875 d 5 Apr 1956 m Stonewall Jackson Hulen; MY GRANDFATHER - William Amos b 4 Aug 1878 Columbia, Boone, MO d 26 May 1951 Yuba City, Sutter, CA, m Frankie Belle Carpenter 1 Jul 1903; Burl b 20 Aug 1879 d 1927: Harrison T. b 4 Nov 1881 d 20 Jan 1942 Orovill, Butte, CA; John Henry b 16 Mar 1883 d 24 Mar 1944 m Armatha "Mayme" Riley; Rose b 12 Apr 1884 d 18 Jul 1959 m John C Stice; Virginia b 4 Mar 1886, d 14 Jun 1973 m Elgin Bryson; Ethel b 21 Mar 1888 d 16 Apr 1958 m Ivan Pigg; Beulah b 14 Sep 1890 d 14 Feb 1964 m Walter Stice; James E. b 27 Jul 1893 , Audrain, MO d 23 Sep 1964 m Edna Mae Bundy; Benjamin Ray b 26 Jun 1894 MO d 16 Oct 1947 Sacramento, Sacramento, CA m Lorraine; Robert J b 28 Nov 1898 d 8 Nov 1953. Note that there are spouses named Stice. Two Henrys but no Martha. My Coats came from NC after 1801 to KY and were there until after 1818 and maybe until about 1828 then moved to Boone Co., MO. I hope this helps. They certainly new the same families. Until next time..... Deane dcoats@jps.net

Thank you for taking the time to read this. Deane Coats, dcoats@jps.net

Since I have been unable to trace backwards I began coming forward. Perhaps someone will see something that may jog a memory or perhaps wake up a megabyte. I would sure appreciate any help. Here is everything....notes, questions, and all!!!! John Ashley Price b. abt 1850 married Lydia Jane Parrish b. abt. 1852 in Johnston Co., NC in 1875. A. P. Barbour & J.S. Barnes were witnesses.

Price Cemetary Information: The Price Family Cemetary (for this line of Prices) is located on Highway 1010, Cleveland School Road. The best directions I have are as follows: From Johnson Tech in Smithfield go west on Highway 210 until the road splits. Bear to the left and go approximately 2 miles to cross a creek bridge which will put you on Highway 1010. Proceed toward Cleveland Middle School (it will be on the right) but do not go beyond the school. The overgrown cemetary sits right beside it close to the road but you have to look for it. A new subdivision called Broadmore is being built around the site. This cemetary is very old with marked and unmarked graves of Price Family members. For some reason, Claude Price was not buried with the rest of the family in the cemetary listed above. He is instead buried in a cemetary off of Highway 301, across from the American Legion. This information was given to me by Van L. Coats (son of Euphemia Price). He also told me that the Coats family was from Onslo and Garner Co., NC. Well, that's it. I believe I have included everything. Looking forward to any response. Susan
