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.
