Lets discuss this. NOTE: Claiborne's cousin (also named Clayborne, son of Abraham) was murdered at a dance hall where he was the bouncer. (Another version of the story states the Clayborne was the owner, and that he was shot after asking a rowdy customer to step outside.) NOTE: there are different families and same individuals see spellings NOTE: ???Claiborne Coker (son of Abraham) ??see spelling of Clayborne?? HIS COUSIN. Birth: 23 March 1802 -- , Elbert County, GA. Death: 1845 - 1850 -- Morgan County, IL. ????(Shot to death) Spouse: Elizabeth Hale ?????1st married to: Parents: Abraham Coker ___________________________________ NOTE: Claiborne Coker (son of Issac Coker) Birth: 14 March 1802-- , Elbert Co., GA. Death: 12 September 1880 -- Morgan, IL ?????? Spouse: Elizabeth Hale ????? Her second Marriage??? Parents: Issac Coker NOTE: Did Elizabeth Hale Marry the cousin Clayborne (son of Abraham) first then after his death marry his cousin Claiborne (son of Isaac Coker) ???? This could be where the childre run together??? ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, March 18, 2002 2:19 PM Subject: [Coker] isaac or abraham coker children did bot have a dennis coker > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Surnames: coker > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/BVJ.2ACIB/996 > > Message Board Post: > > I have two versions of this but seems to me that both brothers had two sons one name clayborne or claiborne the other dennis coker both seemed to have went north to in., and ill. Where I have ran into lintage trouble is figuring out if they both actually name two of their kids the same. from the geneology cds I have it says that dennis coker belonging to abraham were as follows dennis coker , mary (polly) coker, claiborne cloey coker, elizabeth, martha (patsy) coker.... spous being liddia (lydia) where i am kinda wondering is dennis from my cd's shows dennis coker married to a sarah jones having two children a clarisa coker and a dennis c. coker can some one let me know if their information shows the same because i have seen same kids for abraham as to isaac coker. the other thing is claiborne coker according to record in ill., was shot can someone confirm that as well. > > > ==== COKER Mailing List ==== > The Coker Forum http://www.cokers.org/ > > ============================== > To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: > http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237 > ==== COKER Mailing List ==== The Coker Forum http://www.cokers.org/ ============================== To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237Get more from the Web.
