Hi, I'm searching for descendants of Perry W. Coats and Louisa Jane Rash. Their children were as follows: Elizabeth Benjamin John Mary Anderson Josephine Martha Samuel Emma Henry They were born in Mo. and Oklahoma. Perry & Louisa were married in Polk Co., Mo. I am descended form Josephine who married Joseph Shaw, and would like to connect with descendants of Josephine's siblings. Thanks, Shirley

Anybody here? Here is my COATS line just in case anyone is reading: John Wesley COATS b. 1823 Zanesville, Muskingum Co., OH and d. abt. 1900 in MO. He m. Sarah STRAUSBURG abt. 1847 probably in Muskingum Co., OH. She was b. 1827 Zanesville, Muskingum Co., OH and d. abt. 1895 in MO. They had at least one child: Isabella (Isabelle / Isabel) COATS b. Sept. 20, 1849 in Zanesville, Muskingum Co., OH and d. Oct. 5, 1935 in MO. She m. Willis CLARK on July 28, 1870 in Kingston, Caldwell Co., MO. He was b. Nov. 21, 1845 in Nashville, Davidson Co., TN and d. May 1, 1930 in MO. Isabelle COATS may have had a brother named John COATS. There was a boarder named John COATS who lived with Isabelle and Willis CLARK on the 1880 Knoxville Twp., MO Census. I have a note that says Isabelle COATS spent her life in Ohio, Iowa and Missouri.
