Researchers: After doing a little checking, I found that the Vincent Coe who married Sarah Carson was actually Vinton Coe, b. Feb. 13, 1840, at Beallsville, OH, son of James S. and Jemima (Thornberry) Coe, of Ohio County, VA, and Monroe County, OH. He married Aug. 22, 1862, in Ohio County, VA, Sarah E. Carson, daughter of Joseph and Anna (Brown) Carson. They moved to Jasper County, IA, where Vinton was a blacksmith, hardware dealer and justice of the peace. They had just one child: 1. James A. Coe, b. June 16, 1863, in Washinton Co., PA; m. Aug. 13, 1890, at Berwick, IL, Ida Theresa Beck, b. July 8, 1866, daughter of Rudolph A. and Anna Marie (Maderly) Beck. They had two sons who died at birth in 1893 and 1896. Vinton Coe had a brother Rev. Joseph Warren Coe, b. May 17, 1842, at Beallsville, OH, who was educated at Wheeling College and served with Company D, Twelveth West Virginia Volunteers, GAR, during the Civil War. He was a Methodist minister after the war and died Jan. 25, 1885, in Indianola, IA. Unfortunately, the idenity of Vincent Coe's wife is still to be learned. But at least now we know it wasn't Sarah Carson. Vincent Coe was born 1812 probably Roane County, TN, died 1850 Polk County, TN, m. about 1835, Sarah ________, born 1815 in KY. They lived in McMinn and Polk Counties, TN. Sarah lived in Polk County, TN, and Blount County, AL, after Vincent's death, and reportedly ran a boarding house in Benton, TN, for a while. They had the following children: 1. William Newton, b. Feb. 26, 1836. Civil War. 2. Jason, b. 1839. Civil War. 3. Sarah, b. 1841. 4. Francis M., b. 1844. Civil War. 5. Caroline C., b. July 17, 1848. 6. Henry Brooks Clay, b. July 11, 1852. 7. James Riley, b. Jan. 1857. Please note that Henry Brooks Clay Coe and his brother James Riley Coe were born after Vincent's reported death. Hope this is helpful. Carl Robert Coe
