Let's see....this is what I have on the Coats family in Chester County SC: http://www.coatsarchive.us/docschester.html Now, Notley has a daughter named Peggy, I think it was, that we don't know what happened to her....his son went to MS, William was his name and he married a Jane Huey, we believe...Notley's will is at the above link... This is the group we believe came from Frederick County MD, Notley we believe to be the son of Charles Coats of Frederick County MD, where the name is spelled Coart in the transcribed records, in the MD Tax records this Charles is very elderly over 60, but he shows a son Notley and James living with him in MD about 1772, then in SC we have a Notley and James that show up in Chester County SC...there is also another Charles we believe to be younger than the Charles in MD...he is connected to Notley and James somehow, but we're not sure, and maybe a William Coats, who was Quaker in Newberry County SC, this Charles of SC moves to Jefferson County GA in the late 1700s....land records give the names of some of his kids...there is also a James Coats in GA...we're not sure if that is a son of Charles or some other relation i.e. brother...both Charles and James die early on, early 1800s... According to John Baker's revolutionary war file, he lived 60 miles from Charleston on the Broad River, which would put him pretty close to Newberry County SC...but how he is connected to any of the other Bakers in SC, I do not know...and there are a lot of Bakers there....:) There is a Baker DNA project and a list at Yahoo Groups...they are very active, strong and doing some really good research on the Bakers...it was with their help that really helped me to determine my Baker line was via John of Wilson County TN rather than Sylvester of North Carolina, regardless of what the old research says!!! And in 1840 John Baker of Wilson County TN is living alone on the tax records, so I figure he must have had some land...maybe a Jeremiah Baker on the tax lists with him was a son or nephew...but I'm looking now for land records that shows what happened to John's land after he died...and in some cases those records may not how up for 20 years after he died, if he had a son who took the land after he died and then say didn't sell it until later..... We have to enjoy the Hunt!
