Hi Vonda I'm always glad to get additional information so the records would be nice. I believe I will start in SC with you and I'll try and find the Hart's maybe which will lead us to Stephen. It just seems that he couldn't have always been a pauper---there must be some kind of history for this guy or maybe at least find a family for him, but of course that's the fun of the search right?? I went to Lecy's grave this past weekend and that cemetery is a real mess but I'll send you a copy of the pictures when I get them. I'll keep in touch with any Stephen Coe findings. Later cuz.
