Thanks Tom, That is the information I have.. Their parents are the ones I'm after. I've been working on them for thirty years. One of the Coatneys married into the Waltrip family at one time, in Barry County. The daughter of James W. and Nancy Ann, Matildia, married a William Holland, who died in the Civil War. Matildia is my Great Grandmother. Thanks again, Bill I have James W. Coatney born in Virginia, 1787, and married to a Nancy Ann "unk" born in 1816. I have their first born son as Robertson Montgomery Coatney, born in 1832, in TN. Hope this helps.
