I found these articles re: Sarah Coy's family in Abstracts of Nelson County, KY. Newspapers 1807-1890 by Carolyn Wimp pg 23 ______ Wednesday, July 13, 1831 Nelson Co. Court. Amos Coy, Phebe Coy, Moses Coy, Mahala Coy, Isaac Coy, John Noris (sic.) and Sarah his wife, Silas Edelin and Unus his wife, James Brady and Rolly his wife, heirs and representatives of John Coy, Sr. dec'd, take notice that on the second Monday in Sept., next, at the Court house in Bardstown, I, Elisha Johnson, shall motion the honorable county court to appoint commissioners to convey to me a certain tract of land in Nelson Co., according to the tenor and purport of a bond which the said John Coy, Jr. and Mahala Coy his wife executed to me during their lifetime. Saturday, June 16, 1832 Nelson Co. Circuit Court, Amos Coy, Phebe Coy, Moses Coy, Mahala Coy, Isaac Coy, John Norris amd wife Sarah, James Brady and wife Rolly, heirs and legal representatives of the late John Coy, Sr., dec'd. Take notice that on the 2nd Monday in Oct. next, at the Court house in Bardstown, I, John Whitehead, shall move to honorable Co. Court, by motion to appoint commissioners to convey to me a certain tract of land in Nelson Co. accordingly to the tenor and purport of a vond which the said John Coy, Sr. and Martha his wife, executed to Elias Johnson during their lifetime, and which bond on April 11, 1832 was regularly transferred to me by the said Elias Johnson. _____ The first does refer to Elisha Johnson and the second Elias Johnson, wife is Mahala in the first and Martha in the second and the first does say John Coy, Jr. in the last sentence - which I think must be a mistake. (??) Silas Edelin and wife Unus are not listed in the 2nd notice.

Thanks in Advance I'm hoping to find some additional proof to parents of John Norris or his wife Sarah Coy. or Siblings of John Norris by any other documentation. Dave Lee posted this below on Nelson County, KY list. Since the name John Norris is very Common, lots of different ideas as to his parents. Maybe the Marriage bond or marriage Licence might give us more details. This is John Norris m. Sarah Coy Apr 20, 1827, Hardin Co., KY.
