Sonya, We've never discussed this surname before. Where did your Coburns come from? I have one I'm trying to find also. She was Priscilla Coburn. Lived in Anson Co., NC., but married Frederick Staton in probably Edgecomb Co., NC. She was the grandmother of my husband's Calvin Staton who came to McNairy Co., TN. Perhaps this is the American Indian connection that I've been looking for in my husband's Staton line.
