I am looking for someone to claim James Wilson Coker of Northampton. I would bet his grandfather was a Wilson. When the daus of this Wilson family married, they usually had one child with the given names James Wilson. This despite the fact that the Wilson grandfather bore a different given name. Much later our Wilsons do marry into the Coker family in IL. Don't know if one has anything to do with the other. Thanks; Marilyn
