Elizabeth Blackshear was a daughter of Edward Blackshear ane Emily Goodwin Mitchell. Her first husband was Henry Wyche and her second husband was Paul Coalson. He was born in Burke Co Ga and was a lawyer. Some sites at Rootsweb have Edward Blackshear Coalson as their son, so I think that is probably your answer. There is actually quite a bit of information on the Blackshears and some of these other families. The history of Melrose plantation is interesting, you should look it up. Carol
