Hello Teresa, We went to the Sumner County archives today to try to help you find your William Coakley and his marriage to Mary J. Young. We searched through the marriage record books of 1878-1886, 1881-1882,1886-1994, 1895-1902, 1902-1910, 1904-1906, 1910-1917, 1917-1923, 1923-1928, 1928-1932, 1941-1944, 1935-1939, 1927-1928, 1928-1929, 1944-1947, 1940-1941, 1941, plus the census records for 1860, 1870, and 1880. We did not find any marriage of William Coakley to Mary J. Young in Sumner county, Tennessee of those years. We searched by both the Coakley surname and the Young surname. We did, however find several other Coakley marriages. I think I should point out to you that all of the earlier census books showed Coakleys only in Cheatham County. I did not see any Coakley family members in any other county in 1860, 1870, or 1880. If you think of any more information that can help us help you. Thanks for being part of the ROOTWALKER family. Sincerely, Stan Magnesen ROOTWALKER site/list coordinator ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In a message dated 2/14/01 7:07:21 AM Pacific Standard Time, kyoung17345@yahoo.com writes: > Subj: Re: [ROOTWALKER] Coakley > Date: 2/14/01 7:07:21 AM Pacific Standard Time > From: kyoung17345@yahoo.com (Teresa Young) > Reply-to: TN-ROOTWALKER-L@rootsweb.com > To: TN-ROOTWALKER-L@rootsweb.com > > Hi the one i have is William Coakley married Mary J > Young of Summer co tn .The names is all i have.Thanks > Teresa > --- Yelowstone@aol.com wrote: > > Good morning Teresa! > > > > Would you happen to have an approximate marriage > > date and the name of the > > bride of Mr. William Coakley? > > > > Thanks, > > > > And Thanks for being part of the ROOTWALKER family, > > Too! > > > > Sincerely, > >
