1201 He is also listed of Basildon in some sources with his surname spelled Clarke. It is definitely the same John, as he has the same wife and father-in-law. (F-598) CLERK, John (I14323)
 
1202 He is also thought to be the Thomas who died in Virginia in the American Colonies in 1652 instead. CULPEPPER, Thomas * (I17095)
 
1203 He is an appropriate age to have purchased 305 acres of land from Henry McCulloh's 100,000 acres in Cain Creek, NC on 30 May, 1763. This is only a theory on my part. It could also easily fit one of his sons, nephews or cousins for thaer also. H & A Underwood purchased 333 acres on the same day in the same tract of land. UNDERWOOD, Samuel (I1408)
 
1204 He is basically not found in any records of marriage or children's births. He died young in 1754 according to Quaker records listing him as Henry Jr.. That is why he wasn't with his father when his father moved south to Virginia and then North Carolina. I've hunted for triangulations with all the people that believe they descend through him and can find none after checking 15 plus cousins at 3 cM's or above. I would have found one with that minimal check normally.
 
COATE, Henry Jr. (I17468)
 
1205 He is believed to be the John who purchased 100 acres of land in Lancaster Co., PA in 1746. He had 2 children according to "Colonial Families of the U.S.". He could be the John who left a probate record in 1750 or 1754 in Lancaster Co., PA with references of B 1 84 or B 1 68. The John who died in 1754 was supposedly born abt. 1690 according to a YDNA Calquhoun Family Project member of unproven origin and would be an Uncle to him instead.

He also died in Paxton Twp. which is 50 miles from Chestnut Level, PA.
 
CALHOUN, John (I6949)
 
1206 He is called Eochaid Muinremur in United Ancestries CD 100 according to J.K. Hinman. (F-599) PRINCE, Maireadbach (I16488)
 
1207 He is conjectured to be the parent of James Jr. McCool. His will is provided by Sandra Ferguson as follows: James McCool of Backcreek, near Opekon, will recorded 9th 2nd Mo 1751. MCCOOL, James Adams (I16174)
 
1208 He is descended from a branch in the early 1400's, possibly one of Malcolm's sons b 1395 via these breadcrumbs. BY5775 > FT32806 > FT32022 > FTA41789 CALHOON, Prediction E-FT32022 Big Y # rep. next most recent ancestor (I17898)
 
1209 He is from an ancient wealthy French family if this turns out to be the ancestral line of our William Vestal. VASSAL, Jean (I17556)
 
1210 He is given the title of Junior in his son, Moses' baptismal record. There appears to be another couple named William and Elizabeth of Curry Rivel whom were a bit younger than the William Coate Jr. and his wife Elizabeth in the baptismal res begining to have children in 1717. COATE, William Junior (I10159)
 
1211 He is highly likely to be the Earl M. Forte who was born on Sep. of 1924 in the Social Security Death Index. FORTE, Earl M. Jr. (I1737)
 
1212 He is in all likelyhood the John Troyer who was one of the first 4 families to move to Holmes County, Ohio in 1810 when it was still occupied by Native Americans. Holmes County was not actually a county until 1830. Until that point it wt of Coshocton, Tuscarawas and Wayne Counties. TROYER, John (I1648)
 
1213 He is in Kent county, Delaware records on Aug 27,1772 with George Fleming and Wm Tharp, then on Jan 12 1775 Wm Luff and Wm Tharp. On May 13, 1772 there is an indenture between Wm Tharp and Ann wife and Thomas Hall and between J Fleming.l Thorp is listed in Kent County, DE with land called New Years Chance. In 1785 he and his son witnessed a land purchase in Troublesome Creek in Guilford Co, N.C.

On October 8, 1794 a William Tharpe bought 150 acres of land from Isaac Duncan and another 60 acres from John Maiden on August 10, 1795 in Iredell Co., NC. He later sold John Maiden's land to his son. In William's will in Will Book I, p. 220, Iredell Co., NC dated Apr. 25 1807, he names wife Mary, sons: William, Joseph, Zedic, Isaac; and daughters: Esther, Armelia Cahoon, Unica, Kezziah, Ann; and grandson: Jesse Tharpe in care of son Isaac. His witnesses are Zedic Tharp, Jurat, and Samuel Wales. Amelia Calhoon and other Cahoon (Calhoon) families can also be found in Gallia Co., OH where some of William's children migrated too. Other Calhoons appear to have married Tharps in Gallia. (CL-452) 
THARP, William (I13367)
 
1214 He is in Mecklenburg Co., NC in a land transaction in 1767 leading to the theory that he is also a son of George or the older Thomas Calhoon also of Mecklenburg. CALHOON, William (I18729)
 
1215 He is in the 1850 and 1860 census for Clermont Co., Ohio. In the 1880 census, he is listed as Abraham and is living with his nephew, Sylvester Gaskins, in Pierce Twp., Clermont Co., Ohio. In it, like in his father's 1850 census, it staat Bartholomew (his father) was born in Maryland. GASKINS, Abraham (I8496)
 
1216 He is in the 1860 census for Raccoon Twp., Gallia County, Ohio on page 222. He was 31 years of age, a farmer, born in England (note that the county they were born in, in Wales had become England again and was usually under English rule (Mhshire). His wife, Mary Ann, was age 24 years. They had children named Elinor, Elizabeth, and Anna. In 1870, they live in Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio He is age 40. His wife, Mary A. is age 34. He was listed as being born in Wales. His wife is listed as being born in Ohio. REESE, George (I9102)
 
1217 He is in the following record in Chalkleys: 1789--April 21, Thomas Garvin and Elizabeth Young, daughter of James Young (consent); witnesses, John Dickey, Wm. Hook; surety, Andrew Young. GARVIN, Thomas (I16235)
 
1218 He is in the tax records in 1785 for Cumberland Co., PA and could be the son of Adam Calhoon. CALHOON, Adam (I19127)
 
1219 He is known as King of Dalriada in UA CD-100. (F-599) KING OF SCOTS, Eochaidh Crook-Nose Of Argyll (I7715)
 
1220 He is known to be the father many, many children. He lived around Cleveland down to Tennessee with Lorain being his home base. He was living in Tennessee in 2015 and is living in Lorain in 2019.

He believed his father's name was John Lawrence Lauderdale. However, all the facts presented via his baby record of being born in Cleveland, Ohio to John Lauderdale and Gardenia fit him being the son of John Robert Lauderdale and Gardenia Hightower. Gardenia is the daughter of Mary Hightower which again fits the grandmother's name Mary that he gives on social media. This is the only combination that fits his family knowledge.
 
SLAUGHTER, Bruce Lawrence (I50)
 
1221 He is likely a son of this William of Aller. There are few Coates in Aller at the time. He might also be a son of Henry and Grace instead by timing and place. COATE, William (I6640)
 
1222 He is likely an adult male when he died as he is not listed as the son of anyone. COAT, Henrery (I2751)
 
1223 He is likely born before 1682 when his family immigrated to PA, or after 1687 when the last of 4 children are listed being born in the Chester MM, PA Quaker records. In his will dated 1730 or 1731, he bequeathed 440 acres in Chester Co.,o his sons Aaron & Griffith Minshall, plus additional land to his son Isaac. Son Isaac sold 16 acres of the land he received from his father in 1752 to John Galbreath of Springfield, Pennsylvania (C-1304d, 2139) MINSHALL, Isaac (I12584)
 
1224 He is likely of Japanese descent to match the information that Marvin Green was given. HIGHTOWER (I784)
 
1225 He is likely one of the Joseph's listed in the 1830 census for Holmes Co., Ohio. (C-2455) TROYER, Joseph (I9284)
 
1226 He is likely the Andrej Dudik, from Nevicke, age 39, whom entered the U.S. on May 23, 1900 from the port of Antwerp. He was meeting up with his brother-in-law in Pottsville, PA, Joseph Kidore. He was traveling with a likely son, Fedor Duge 18 going to the same place. DUDIK, Andras (I9775)
 
1227 He is likely the Arron Coppock who died on Oct. 29, 1894 in Ohio who was age 65 and buried in Forest Hill Cemetery, in Piqua, Ohio, Section 10A, grave 350. He is of the correct age and living in Miami Co. like his father. The wife burih him is Jane Adams Coppock, 1843-1917 so this would be a 2nd wife if I have him matched correctly. COPPOCK, Aaron (I14891)
 
1228 He is likely the early Richard Ponder who purchased 38 acres in Maryland which he named Ponder's Chance. The date is not given on the index record but is in a totally different volume than his father's purchase of land. His father inl written at the latest in 1797, asked him to be a guardian for his brother, James, suggesting that he was at least 18 years of age, probably 21. This gives his birthdate as before 1682 and probably bef 1779.The following record in the Archives of Maryland show that Richard Ponder was wealthy by 1705. Lord one Thousand Seven Hundred and ffive Betweene Richard part and John Salter of the same County and Province on the other ation of the sum of ffourteene Thousand Pounds of Good Tobacco to him him the said Richard Ponder the receipt whereof the sd Richard Ponder hereof fully satisfied Contented & paid and by these prsents doth fully John Salter his Heires Exrs and admrs from Every part and parcell moveing have given granted Bargained and Sold, and by these prsents give said John Salter his Heires and assignes forever, Part of a Tract of Land side of Chester River on a Creeke called Joneses Creeke: Beginning at a and running thence south south west One Hundred and fforty Perches to with ye sd Land Three Hundred and Twenty Perches Then north north Containing by Estimation Two Hundred Acres more of Less; Together with benefitts houses Outhouses Orchards ffences and all other things ings that does concern the pmises To have and to hold the said unto ye sd John Salter his Heires and assignes to the only proper use for ever; and that the sd Richard Ponder at the sealeing & Delivery in ffree & Common Soccoge and to be and remaine ffree & Cleare of ever to the Day of the Date hereof; and does hereby obliege hiimselfe by his procurement The rents and services that shall henceforth grow True Intent and meaneing of these prsents writeing is that the said sell the abovesd Land and Plantation and all the appurtenances and assignes for Ever and do hereby relinquish any Claime or Title my Seale in the Day of in the year ffirst above Richard [mark] Ponder seal on the Backside as followeth vidzt Ponder and acknowledge the wthin deed the uses within menconed

PONDER, Richard (I10234)
 
1229 He is likely the Ellwood listed in the 1850 census for Newton Twp., Miami Co., Ohio COATE, Thomas Elwood (I14431)
 
1230 He is likely the following Benjamin who served in the Civil War: "Enlisted 5-3-1864 ae 40, Co D 145 OH Inf; mustered out 8-24-1864 Camp Chase, Ohio" He was in the 1880 DELAWARE CO OH, SCIOTO T.

B. age 17 born Ohio BENTON, Benjamin Thomas (I5231)
 
1231 He is likely the James Coates that was granted a certificate to Haverford MM, from Kennett Monthly Meeting, Chester Co., PA in Quaker records, dated 10 mon, 13 da 1785. I say might, because several of his family members seemed to be parte Kennett Monthly Meeting of the Society of Friends. (C-2153) He is likely to be the James Coats who married Rachel Jackson on Mar. 9, 1793 in Baltimore Co., Maryland according to the Marriage Register of Rev.Lewis Richards, pastor of first Baptist Church. If true, he would have married out of unity. COATES, James (I964)
 
1232 He is likely the James who purchased land in 1770 in Paxtang, Lancaster, PA where he grew up. He might also be the James that is believed to have died in 1822 with the following probate record in Lancaster Co., PA. N 1 178 CALHOUN, James Mayor of Baltimore (I17256)
 
1233 He is likely the John Clark in Jefferson Twp., Jackson Co., Ohio in the 1850 census with the following info. Name: John Clark Age: 55 Birth Year: abt 1795 Birthplace: Virginia Home in 1850: Jefferson, Jackson, Ohio, USA Gender: Maley Number: 587 Household Members: Name and Age John Clark 55, Nancy Clark 44, Elizabeth Clark 20, Hannah Clark 17, Henry Clark 15, Sarah Clark 13, Margaret Clark 11, Nancy Clark 8, Isaac Clark 3. John, Nancy and their first daughter Elizabeth were all born in Virginia. Elizabeth was born in Ohio. That means they moved to Ohio after 1830 and after their father had died in Jackson Co., Ohio. CLARK, John (I6642)
 
1234 He is likely the John Coates that witnessed the marriage of his sister Amey, in the 10mo 1780 in Kingwood monthly meething along with several other members of his family. There is a John Coates, brother of a William, who died on Mar 3,ho might be this John. He was probably born in Chester Co., PA estimated about this John's birthdate. His wife's name might have been Mary. They lived in Lower Oxford Twp., Chester Co., PA in the 1790 census. He had a son named Thomas born in 1791 who lived in the same township in the 1820 census. Thomas died in New London, Pennsylvania. They were Presbyterians who spelled their name Coates. John died in 1742. Descendants of this John moved to Vineland, NJ at some point in their lives. The info on these two brothers comes closest to matching this family, especially since John's oldest son is named Thomas. There also tend to be some King marriages into the descendants of this line. However, be aware that it is theory at this point in time. (C-2074) COATES, John (I16720)
 
1235 He is likely the John Duvall who had a subscription to the "Christian Advocate and Journal, Zion's Herald" 1829-1831. His post office address was Darnestown, Montgomery Co., Maryland at the time. This was a Methodist paper. He is py the John Duval who leaves the following will, or a transcription thereof: "Grandchildren: John G., Cecilius B., William F., Joseph J., Summerville, Louisa R., Valier Duvall (youngest of 4 grandsons under age 21) - all real estate. Son" Grafton Duvall, his wife Harriet and their children (named above), Ex: Nephew John S. Duvall, son of testator's dec'd brother Hammon Duvall, Wit: William Burns, Edward Woodfiled, Lyde Griffith." DUVALL, John (listed as half brother) (I7229)
 
1236 He is likely the John Rees listed in his niece's husband, Thomas J. Morgan's administration of his estate in 1752. He is buried in Ebenezer Cemetery in Gallia Co., Ohio. He is listed as a native of Wales in his Gallia Co., Ohio Burial Index

He might have died in 1797 in Abergavenny instead, but since no father's name was given, this suggests he was at least 21 years of age and does not account for this John. 
REES, John (I17113)
 
1237 He is likely the Joseph C. Coats who was in the 1827 tax lists for Union Twp., Miami Co., Ohio He was living with his brother William in the 1850 census for Union Twp., Miami Co., OH and he is listed as insane and in the 1860 census wheres listed as idiotic. COATE, Joseph C. (I580)
 
1238 He is likely the Mareen Duvall who purchase "Duvall's Hunting Quarter" of 100 acres on Nov 1, 170? and "Duvall's Range" of 200 acres on Nov 2, 1710, both in Prince George's Co., Maryland. He is also possibly the Mareen Duval Sr. who lel in Anne Arundel Co., Maryland in 1741. According to a book that included the "Fairview" home, this Mareen lived at "The Hermitage", the Duvall homestead between Kensigton and Garrett Park. DUVALL, Mareen (I5338)
 
1239 He is likely the oldest Young in Cecil Co., MD in 1720 when he is asked to preach and see if enough Presbyterians have moved into the region to have minister established there. The fact that he was asked to do this and has the title of Mr. indicates age and land holdings.

An attorney, Janice McAlpine, pointed out that all of the Youngs of Beverly Manor and Naked Creek cannot be the sons of John who died in 1747 as his closest next of kin is listed as his brother, James. What this suggests to me is that we descend through James instead as we have triangulations representing John Lamont Young and his wife Annie.

With new evidence and understanding from Attorney Janice McAlpine, I do not believe that this John ever came to the American colonies. Most of what has been attributed to him in the colonies actually was about his likely children. His stated son's John and James owned land in Augusta County by 1738 and appear to be the earliest Youngs in the records. Robert's family came by 1740. Hugh followed in 1740/1741 according to Hugh's son John's testimony when he was 81 in 1818.

We now know for certain that John and James of Back Creek in the Beverly Patent of Augusta Co., Virginia was not the John married to Annie Houston. It took a lawyer and descendant, Janice McAlpine to discern this. It was assumed that the early John and James C. Young on Back Creek was the John married to Annie and his brother James from Ireland. However, John died intestate (without leaving a will) in 1747. His named brother James Young was the court appointed administrator of the estate rather than the executor of a will. Multiple things are significant here. The John who died in 1747 had no descendants or heirs. We know this because his brother James was referred to as "his nearest heir" in the records. Attorney Janice McAlpine points out that by law, a brother could only be an heir if the deceased had no living descendants.

The second significant point here is since John who died in 1747 left no children then he was not John Young who married Annie Houston in Ireland and left a number of sons and daughters.

Thirdly, it means that we also do not have proof that John married to Annie has a brother James that I have seen other than the misinterpretation of the administration of John who died in 1747 in Augusta Co., Virginia.
Let this last paragraph sink in. It has far reaching effect on how we have interpreted the data up to 2010.

One more clear pattern needs to be noted about this family. The following persons interact in the land, road and court records from Beverly and the Borden Platts which suggests they are siblings: John, James C., Hugh, Robert and Nancy. Sarah, often attributed to this group of siblings, lived on Naked Creek with her husband and all interactions in her and her son Robert's family occur with Youngs in the Naked Creek area. In other words, she might not be the sibling of John Young.

Even so, DNA evidence indicates that my Sarah Young is descended from John and Annie Houston's ancestral tree. I have 9 triangulations between 5 persons who descend from John and Annie Houston Young between 5.2 and 6.6 cM's with my Mother's DNA. She was born in 1916 helping us to get these. These are on chromosome 15 from 29,000,000-31,000,000. We don't know how the Naked Creek group ties in to John and Annie Houston Young, but we know they do.
 
YOUNG OF CLAN LAMONT OF SCOTLAND, John (I12177)
 
1240 He is likely the Samuel Clark that witnessed the will of his brother Alexander Clark in 1794 in Greenbriar, VA (later to become West Virginia.) Alexander's son Samuel would have only been age 12 at the time. CLARK, Samuel (I2558)
 
1241 He is likely the Samuel who purchased land in 1767 in Cumberland Co., Pennsylvania. This is where his brother Adam also later bought land. I have a triangulation with a cousin that descends through this Samuel Calhoun. All my mother's cousin matches to Calhouns are through lines that descend from this Samuel's son David's line. There are at least a half dozen cousins to her on Ancestry with this being where they match.

Most people trace this Samuel as the son of Hugh and Agnes Calhoun. Occasionally he is listed as the son of Andrew, brother to Hugh instead. I have not seen good proof either way except that the naming patterns of Hugh's children matches the naming pattern for James' children. Some of Hugh's children also ended up in Lunenburg, Virginia when James did.

Here is his transcribed will. "LAST WILL

A Testament of Samuel Calhoun, 1721-1773

In the name of God, Amen, Nov, 30th day in the year of our Lord, one thousand seven hundred & seventy three, I SAMUEL CALHOUN, in the Township of East Pennsboro, in the County of Cumberland, & State of Pennsylvania, being weak in body, but sound in mind & Memory & Mindful of My Mortality, do order, divine, make & Ordain, my Last Will & Testament, disposing of my small Estate of Worldly Goods in the following Manner & Form.

That if His Wife, should die before the youngest child come of Age, the Personal Estate should be divided as above directed, in case of Her and the Profits of the place to be for the maintenance of the surviving children until the youngest if he lives, arrives at the age of twenty one years, at which time, He Willed the Place to be sold.

His wife to have the interest, of the third part of the price, during her natural lifetime, the other two thirds, with the principal of that, to be equally divided amongst all of his children, the two above-mentioned still excluded.

Walter Buchanan, Adam Calhoun & John Carothers can attest the above being written on the 2nd day of December 1773.

Distant relation of Vice President John C. Calhoun

"ANCESTRY OF SAMUEL CALHOUN
Samuel Calhoun is a descendant of Charlemagne, Alfred the Great, William the Conqueror, Henry I, Empress Matilda, Henry II, King John, Henry III, Edward I, Edward II, Edward III, John of Gaunt, Sir William Marshall, Strongbow de Clare, and Lady Godiva. He is a descendant of some of the major figures of Scottish history including Sir William "Braveheart" Wallace, Robert the Bruce, Malcolm III, David I, William the Lion, James IV "Iron Belt," Somerled Lord of the Isles and Lady Macbeth. He also descends from Llewelyn the Great Prince of Wales, Ireland's King Brian Boru, King Louis VII of France and Eleanor of Aquitaine."
 
CALHOON, Samuel YDNA E-BY165188 half-brother in Thrulines w ave 9 cM's (I10307)
 
1242 He is likely the W.C. Glenn owning land in Huntington Twp. Gallia Co., Ohio just west of his father A.Y. Glenn in the 1874 Gallia Co., Ohio atlas, in Twp. 7, Range 16, section 26. He is also likely to be the Curry Glenn who along with hier, Andrew, and Uncle James and cousin Milton were operators on the Underground Railroad. GLENN, William Curry (I14924)
 
1243 He is likely the William who left a will or probate record in 1823 in Lancaster Co., PA. N 1 266 CALHOON, William (I10306)
 
1244 He is likely to be the Jacob Cook who attended the Quaker marriage of Nehemiah Underwood and Rachel Yarnel on the 14d 10m 1773 in Warrington Twp., York Co., Pennsylvania (C-2418b) COOK, Jacob (I242)
 
1245 He is likely to be the William Calhoun who bought 150 acres in Paxton, Lancaster Co., PA in 1765. The land was paid for by John and E. Albright, heirs for the deceased Henry Albright. His wife or one of his grandparent might be an Al. Some of his descendants believe he died in Madison, Alabama. He is also possibly the William whose estate was probated in 1838 in Lancaster Co., PA. I 1 124 CALHOUN, William (I2882)
 
1246 He is likely to have been born in Bridgewater and die in Curry Rivel, but this is not proven. He is also likely to have been born several years before 1615. He and his sister Joan were named in their grandfather's will. COATE, John (I2405)
 
1247 He is listed as a "dyer" in his son's 1704 baptism and as a victullar by profession by his daughter, Mary's christening in 1706. According to Wikipedia a victullar is a person whom "supplies food, beverages and other provisions for the crew of a vessel at sea." He temporarily went back to being a dyer in 1716 and was a Victualler by 1718 again.
 
STEPHENS, Joseph (I18367)
 
1248 He is listed as a "Saylor" in his son Edmund's baptismal record. If he is the one born in 1588 in Cornhill, London, London, England, some of his relatives are listed as Shipwrights. This would explain his eldest son, Edmond's interest in travel to the colonies and Edmond's being trained in carpentry making this theory more plausible. Son Edmund also left from London to come to the colonies. Stepney is in downtown London. Edward moved from Ratcliff to Lymehouse/Limehouse by 1612.

Here are the other Edwards that could be him, but lived at a somewhat further distance to London where he married Ysabell according to FreeReg.uk.org.

Edward Johnson - 7 January 1588
St Andrew by the Wardrobe with St Ann Blackfriars, London, England, United Kingdom, son of William (next closest match)

Out of these, I am theorizing that Edward is the one born in Cornhill, London, England. His father's name fits into the family tree. He lived closest to Bishopsgate, London, England where he could have met his wife. He was of a correct age to marry. He was a sailor with relatives who were shipwrights who could have taught his son, Edmond, carpentry as the trade he came to the American colonies with. Since his son was the first born son and came to America, it suggests the family did not have a lot of money for their first born need to make his way in the world instead of inheriting wealth from his parents. 
JOHNSON, Edward (I11486)
 
1249 He is listed as a Blacksmith at his marriage to Ann Fry and is likely quite a bit older than her to have that profession and be marrying a minor. His age is verified in his burial record at being age 76 when he passed. COATE, John (I6665)
 
1250 He is listed as a cabinet maker in the 1860 census. COWDERY, Jacob (I333)
