1751 He was the third Marquis of Dorset and was named the first Duke of Suffolk in 1551. GREY, Henry Duke Of Suffolk (I7587)
 
1752 He was the third President of the United States of America. His ancestors also supposedly include Robert De Beaumont, another ancestor of ours. In "Thomas Jefferson - A Life" it states," From this point ( 19-16) on, the line we shall bewing (one of a number of possible lines going back to Charlemagne (35-32) and beyond) is composed entirely of earls, counts, princes, and kings (and their daughters in some instances) except for Alan la louche's mother-in-law, Helen (20-17) daughter of Alan, Lord of Galloway (21-18) who signed the Magna Caita. The line follows the one in Burke's Presidential Families, Appendix C-3, which is the "Vere" line mentioned above, up to this point. Burke's however, mistakenly continues Helen's ancestry to King David I of Scotland through her mother, who was actually not Margaret but Alan's first wife, whose name is not known. Our line continues through Helen's husband, Roger de Quincy, Earl of Winchester and companio'1 of King Richard on the Third Crusade. Roger's mother was the daughter of Robert de Beaumont (22-19), Earl of Leicester (d. 1190), whose grandfather Robert, the first Earl of Leicester (24-21), married Isabel, granddaughter of King Henry I of France (26-23) and of Herbert IV, count of Vermandois (26-23), who was descended from Charlemagne (35-32) and King Henry I of Germany (31-28) as was pointed out earlier in this article." JEFFERSON, Thomas (I1587)
 
1753 He was the well known Dunker minister of the time. STUTZMAN, Jacob Sr. (I9258)
 
1754 He was the youngest of John's sons according to John's will. He was not listed as a minor by Mary Ponder's second husband, John Gilgore in 1806 so he likely would have been at least 18 by that time or born before 1689. There is the possy that he'd been indentured in a trade by that time also relieving him of his step-father's care.

He might be the William Ponder whose estate was inventoried in 1724 in Liber 10, Folio 159 in Queen Anne's, Maryland. If so, his administration is # 452, Liber 6, Folio 194. 
PONDER, William (I10221)
 
1755 He was to be taken care of by his brother Richard till he was of age in his father's 1702 will. James Ponder left a will in 1750 in Queen Anne's, Maryland in Box 9, Folder 80 and also Liber 27, Folio 417. PONDER, James (I16812)
 
1756 He was trained by the Church of England for his career. He emigrated to Pennsylania in 1709 and was ordained in Uwchlan Twp., Chester Co., PA in 1712. JOHN, Samuel (I8621)
 
1757 He was with his parents when they moved from Wrightsborough Monthly meeting in Georgia to Miami Monthly Meeting in Miami Co., OH on 9/12/1805. COPPOCK, Jesse (I1670)
 
1758 He was younger than his wife, Mary by multiple years. He was a clergyman in the Anglican Church and Rector for Queen Anne's Parish when he married Mary. As her spouse, he became the Commissary in Maryland for the Lord Bishop of London. HENDERSON, Jacob (I5921)
 
1759 He we was heir to his older brother, Christopher who died without issue. He was the High Sheriff of Ripon and the M.P. for Yorkshire in 1585. In his will dated 1586, he only names some of his children in the following order: John, Geormas, Christopher, Robert, and Francis. There are several additional children listed for this William at www.flash.net/~barker/html1/d0003/g0000220.htm. (F-511, 527) His will was not probated until Apr 5, 1603. MALLORY, Sir William (I14103)
 
1760 He went by his middle name, Henry. BAUMGARDNER, Hiram Henry (I9418)
 
1761 He went by his middle name, Willis. He worked in the Coal Mines in Pennsylvania and was also a carpenter. They lived in Clearfield Co., PA for the first two children and moved to Jefferson Co., PA where the next three children were born
 
BAUMGARDNER, Almaney Willis (I9453)
 
1762 He went by the name of Harry B. Coate as an adult. He was known for his astute business sense. He was the senior member of a drygoods business called Coate and Caw in the Allen building in Troy, Ohio. He ran off with his governess andd to Chicago, IL where he was the vice-president of Cooper, Coate and Casey Co. When he left his wife with the governess, this tainted his memory in the eyes of his family, as they were quite fond of his wife. He married the governess apparently after his wife, Mary, divorced him. He had at least one daughter by his second wife. Her married name was Mrs. Gertrude Huddel. (C-370a) He and his second wife lived in Los Angeles, California where he opened another dry goods store with three surnames in the title of it too. He owned that store for 38 years and died at a ripe old age. (C-370a, 2081, & Al Coate) COATE, Henry (Harry) B. (I11641)
 
1763 He went by the name of Rich in the census records. They rented their home and he was a farmer by trade in the 1930 census. MACUMBER, Richard (I11613)
 
1764 He worked on the railroad according to the 1920 US Florida Census. Their might be 2 Samuel Shorts born in the 1883-1888 range that I could be mixing up in the records. However, none of the documents rule each other out if Sam's wife in the census records didn't know where he or his parents were born. If there is only one Sam Shorts in this time frame, he probably graduated from Rutger's University in New Jersey. In the 1900 census, he was born in Alabama as were his parents. In the 1920 census, his wife says he was born in WV and his parents in Virginia. SHORTS, Sam (I543)
 
1765 He would account for the John Calhoon in the 1830 census of Guilford, between the ages of 50 and 59. The only other census he appears to be in is as a son over age 16 in the 1790 census. This is true unless James and Jean had another unaccounted for son who died before 1795 and is not in their wills. There is a possibility of this as there is a male living with eldest son James in the 1790 census born before 1774 that could account for this John instead.

He received land from his father in his 1795 will. This indicates he was at least 21 at the time. John sold at least some of this property to brother Samuel in 1797. John again was named in his mother's will in 1804 which was proved in 1805. These are all the records he has been found in in Guilford, NC.

It is likely if his wife is Betty Forresten that he was married before and possibly lived elsewhere between 1805 and 1811 when he married Betty is 1811.
 
CALHOUN, John Johnstone (1790 census with father - over age 16) (I9278)
 
1766 He would have been born in Lunenburg where his father lived from 1748-1764. His parents had sold all of their known land there in Feb. and March of 1764, putting his birthplace in question. His name is transcribed as Samuel E. Calhoun when he was a bondsman for his daughter, Martha, in 1826.

He received a land grant in Guilford, NC in 1782 for 200 acres on Hogans Creek. He had applied for it in 1779. His father sold him 100 more acres of land in Guilford Co., NC in 1785.

He was the administrator to the estate of his father along with his brother James in 1795. It is not known when the estate was completed.

He received a bed and jug from his mother's will in 1805. He was asked to pay her funeral expenses in her will.

He sold lots of land after 1805 through 1828 in Guilford, NC.

He bought items from his brother James' estate in 1813.

He is living in Guilford Co., NC in 1830 and is listed with multiple sons and daughters still living with him. He is between age 70 and 79 in this census. His possible son Samuel is accounted for in another 1830 census living near likely brothers James and Moses Calhoun of Guilford Co., NC.
He is NOT the Samuel who moved to Barnwell Co., SC in 1795 and then to Montgomery Co., Georgia as is OFTEN stated in 2nd hand genealogies. He can't be as he is accounted for by all of the above Guilford Co., NC records.

He is the Samuel in the following Guilford Co., NC records.

*He was age 70-79 in this 1830 census. 
CALHOON, Samuel (predicted half sibling thru mother in Thrulines) (I16853)
 
1767 He would have likely died before his brother John was born. COATE, John A. (I1283)
 
1768 He would likely have had a 1st wife before Elizabeth Crowl and unknown children. CALHOUN, James (I10499)
 
1769 He would represent the father of at least 4 sons, three who had his same E-FT350465 haplogroup. Three of these 4 sons further down the line had variations/mutations haplogroup that delineate some more of their ancestors. E-BY164498, E-FG2323 and E-MF104747. (Mar. 2023)

Here is his bio from Clan McFarlane and Associated Clans: "1 - received the honour of knighthood from King James IV, and obtained a charter under the great seal of sundry lands and baronies in Dumbartonshire, dated 4th December 1506. On 11th July 1526 he and Patrick Colquhoun his son received a respite for assisting John, Earl of Lennon, in treasonably besieging, taking, and holding the castle of Dumbarton. He died before 16th August 1536. By his first wife, Elizabeth Stewart, daughter of John, Earl of Lennox, Sir John Colquhoun had four sons and four daughters; and by his second wife, Margaret, daughter of William Cunningham of Craigenda, he had two sons and two daughters.

2 - In 1513 Sir John Colquhoun 11th of Luss, purchased "the two merk lands of old extent of Tullichintaull from Robert Rose of Tarbat"
[History of Clan Macfarlane Vol. II - manuscript by James Macfarlane; Chapt. 40]"
 
COLQUHOUN, XI, LORD OF LUSS COLQUHOUN, Sir John * E-FT350465 PREDICTED (I10676)
 
1770 He wrote his will Dec. 12, 1689 and it was proved on Jan. 21, 1689/1690 in Barbados. LESLIE, Charles (I2010)
 
1771 He wrote his will in Curry Rivel on Oct. 3, 1716 under the title of Yeoman. He named his sons William, John,Thomas, Robert, Jeffery, Jacob, Marmaduke, and daughters Elizabeth, Joan, Mary and Sarah. His wife, Elizabeth, was named his exe. It was witnessed by James Hurd, John Richfield, and Thomas Crofts. It is theory on my part that he had 3 wives, 2 of them named Elizabeth. In this time period and place most families lost a lot of children before adulthood and the number of children he lists in his will plus the larger number in the christening records would indicate that his family was significantly larger than the number of children living at the time of this will. He was also wealthy as indicated by the fact that his will had a duplicate in the Prerogative records of Chanterbury. COATT, William Sr (I6692)
 
1772 He's usually considered to be the descendant of George Calhoun and Eliz. Wilson though YDNA disagrees. CALHOUN, Thomas E-BY165188 (I4847)
 
1773 He, his father and possible grandfather, all had their first names in Latin in their church records which was Gulielmis or William in English. COATE, William (I3882)
 
1774 He, his wife and oldest daughter were born in Canada and became naturalized citizens when they moved to Ohio, in the range of 1909-1912. He was a lineman in his first daughter's birth record in 1908. He was a lineman (in the telegraph in) earning a wage according to the 1920 census record. In the 1930 census, he and his wife were living alone. It gives their same age and states that he was a lineman by trade. In this census, his father is listed as being born in Scotland, not Canada as the 1920 census had. He was not working at the time. His wife was employed as a maid in a home. His daughter, Evelyn and son Robert and son Melba are living in the household next to them. He registered for the draft in World War I. It is unknown if he actually served in this war, but he did enlist in World War II.

The World War I record gives his wife's name as Jane. He was employed by Sherwin Williams Co. They lived at 1437 17th St. in Cleveland. He was born on Sep 8, 1877 in Kingston, Ontario, Canada according to the World War II record. They lived at 3126 Prospect Ave. in Cleveland at the time. He was employed by the W.P.A. on Oct. 25, 1942.

He was 6 ft. tall, 240 lbs., had gray eyes and hair, wore glasses and had a broken finger on his left hand. The 1920 census was taken in Jan. of 1920, so he would have been 42 years of age matching this World War II Registration card. He looked just like Theodore Roosevelt even down to the dress. He worked with the CCC. He ran one unit. He was dared to pick up this huge tree trunk. He could never pass up a dare and this one ripped his bowels and eventually killed him.

His obituary in the Cleveland Plain Dealer was as follows: "Barr, William, beloved husband of Jane, father of Isabelle Clark, Evelyn Maxwell, Robert Barr and Melba Leckin, residence 3126 Prospect Ave. Friends may call at A.E. Brown Funeral Home, 8806 Euclid Ave. Services Thursday, Aug. 12, 2 p.m."

The following newspaper articles might possibly belong to this family in the Cleveland Plain dealer. There were many Barr families living in the area previous to this Barr family locating in Cleveland though Navarre, Nov. 16: Mr. and Mrs. William Barr and daughter spent Sunday with the former parents: Mr. and Mrs. Frank Barr. 
BARR, Dr. William (I9536)
 
1775 He, his wife and one child attended the 1859 reunion of his family. COATS, Andrew (I5304)
 
1776 He, his wife and son Richard lived in a leased cottage in Mainwaring in 1577. He was listed as a householder at his death and a shoemaker in at least one other record according to Bob Yarwood. (C-2272) Bob Yarwood theorizes that John'er was named Humphrey, also a shoemaker of Over Knutsford. He payed a lay subsidy tax in 1742 and pleaded in a Duchy Court of Lancaster in 1545. He is obviously at least a generation older than John, lives in a nearby area and is the same profession. (C-2272) YARWOOD, John (I8386)
 
1777 He, his wife, children and brother, Calvin lived in Dublin, Mercer Co., Ohio in the 1860 census records. He apparently moved to Corning, Arkansas like his brother, William, did by 1880. Here is a transcription of the 1880 census recorde and his family in Corning. "Andy J. Harb Home in 1880: Corning, Clay, Arkansas Age: 54 Estimated birth year: abt 1826 Birthplace: Ohio Relation to head-of-household: Self Spouse's name: Eliza A., Father's birthplace: PA Mother's birthplace: PA Neighbors: Occupation: Laborer Marital status: Married Race: White Gender: Male, Household Members: Name Age Andy J. Harb 54, Eliza A. Harb 54, Lucy J. Harb 18." HARB, Andrew Jackson (I11954)
 
1778 He, his wife, Rachel, and 2 children attended the 1859 family reunion held in Randolph Co., Indiana. According to his 1880 census info, both his parents were born in South Carolina. COATS, Dempsey (I5343)
 
1779 He, like his brothers, abandoned their Quaker faith, to fight slavery. He enlisted in the Civil War in 1861 and was the rank of Captain by 1863. According to Galbreath in the 1921 Ohio State Historical Quarterly, his highest rank was. He became a Baptist minister in 1869 in Vinton, Iowa. He was not actually ordained until the following year at Center Point Church in Iowa. He had a son who followed in his footsteps as a Baptist minister too. (C-2187, 2246) COPPOC, Joseph Lynch (I14149)
 
1780 He, like his father, were involved in wars against the Romans and Goths. He started Brandenburg. (C-1346) KING OF FRANKS, Richemer (I16644)

1782 Heinrich became the guardian of his brother Michael's children upon Michael's death in the orphan's court records. He was in the minutes of the 1789 yearly meeting for the German Baptist Brethren in York Co, Pennsylvania He is often lis Henry in the records, i.e. John Kehr's will lists him as his "loving brother in law Henry Danner". Henry wrote his own will on Feb 8, 1813 in Manheim Twp., York Co., Pennsylvania His executors were Elizabeth and David Danner. Children listed were Henry, David, Anna, Rachel, Leah and Solome. He was 72 years, 1 mo, and 7 days old upon his death according to his tombstone. I don't believe this quite matches the current birth date for him from other soruces. (CL-514, 526) DANNER, Heinrich (I8431)
 
1783 Helen grew up near the Coate family in Trenton, Ohio from 1920-1948. She worked for Maude Coate many years to help her with her large family. She was well accustomed to working hard, as she was the 2nd of fourteen children in her own fa

When Maude contracted what the doctors said was "multiple sclerosis" and lost her ability to walk, Helen stood Maude on her feet and walked her to downtown Trenton and back. It miraculously helped Maude regain her physical strength.

After marrying Maude's son, Warren, whom she'd known all her life, they moved to Columbus, Ohio where she lived until 1991 when she, her husband and son moved to Johnstown, Ohio. She was involved in her children's lives as class room mother an
d in the PTA. She was a President of the East Columbus Lion's Club Auxiliary as well as Vice President of the East Columbus Christian Church's Ladies Aide. She was an extremely gentle and kind hearted woman that was a loss to this world when she died of cancer in 2002. 
SCHENCK, Helen Elizabeth (I11999)
 
1784 Helen had two stepsisters and stepbrothers likely by her mother as the boys have a different surname than DiFucci. Their names were Mrs. Virginia Limano and Mrs. Josephine Dalessio, and Anthony Passilla, all of Meadville, PA and Phillip Paa of Florida. In the 1930 census, she is listed as having emigrated in 1902. She was naturalized and could speak English. She was born in Italy. Her age at marriage did not match her age currently. She was listed at age 33 and married at age 14. Her husband was listed at age 43 and married at age 21. Obviously one of these ages is incorrect. Since she was having children by 1907, I suspect she was a child bride of age 11 and her husband was age 21. DE FUCCI, Elena "Helen" (I9685)
 
1785 Helenus was the priest for the Arcadian sea-god, Pallas. (C-1346) HELENUS I, King Of Sicambri I (I16629)
 
1786 Henry and his brother John are highly likely to be underage when their father died in 1787, as their education in a trade is provided for in his will. Henry might be the Henry whose estate was probated in 1806 in New Jersey. COATE, Henry (I1290)
 
1787 Henry appears to be Robert's eldest son, as he and his mother were the executors of his father's estate in 1787. (C-1078) He might possibly be the Robert Cote who witnesses a deed between Veach and Ratlege in 1802 in Rowan Co., Northna. (E) COATE, Robert (I14855)
 
1788 Henry Coate named this son Henry in his will dated 1661. COATE, Henry (I16282)
 
1789 Henry courted Eunice in her log cabin. Her name is spelled Unis Caughren in the marriage index at Miami Co., Courthouse. After they married and moved to his home in Ludlow Creek, she helped raise her children, Joseph and Susannah Coppocn Coate (Henry's youngest) and Mary Davis (Henry's granddaughter who had lost her mother, also). Mary Davis was the grandmother of President Hoover. (C-1017) COTHRAN, Eunice (I11978)
 
1790 Henry Glascock's will dated 1606, leaves his daughter Grace L133-13-14, and mentions "John Wright, my godson, my daughter's son." GLASCOCK, Henry (I17169)
 
1791 Henry graduated in Dec. 1942 from officer candidate school at Camp Lee, Va. during World War II. He was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the Quartermaster Corps to begin his service in the war. (F-DOC) FORTE, Henry Lincoln (Hank) III (I11911)
 
1792 Henry had a nephew named Henry who was also married to this Sarah Curtis's niece with the same name of Sarah Curtis. They are listed as Henry Sr. and Henry Jr. in Indiana records, though they were uncle and nephew. The elder Henry movedulton Co., IN about 1836 from Miami Co., Ohio He and his wife had six children. (C-2176) HOOVER, Henry (I8077)
 
1793 Henry Hart was the first in his family to live in Surry Co., Virginia. On August 31, 1635, he patented 350 acres on the southside of the Maine River against Jamestown Island called Pynie Point. The patent indicated it was for the transpon of himself, wife Rebecca and five other persons. Rebecca died soon after. By 1637, he patented 250 acres in James City on the Surry side for the transportation of his new wife, Elizabeth, and four other persons. This land was also adjacent to the land of Thomas Rolfe, who was the son of John and Pocahontas. (The Rolfe land was later purchased by Thomas Warren, who married the widow of Henry Hart's son, Thomas). Source: John Bennett Boddie, "Southside Virginia Families" and "Colonial Surry". HART, Henry (I9616)
 
1794 Henry Hotspur was buried disinterred at Whitchurch, York Minster, ENG. He apparently had been disemboweled, his head being sent to York, his body to London, Newcastle, Bristol and Chester, England and then sent to his widow. (C-993) PERCY, Sir Henry "Hotspur" (I13534)
 
1795 Henry II reigned from 25 Oct. 1154 through 1189. He was called "Curt Mantel". (C-437, p. 590) He had keen gray eyes, a freckled face, short red hair, a short broad frame and boundless energy. His empire included much of Scotland, Wales,d and France, all of which he supervised directly. He traveled so often and so fast, the French king is quoted as saying "Now in Ireland, now in England, now in Normandy, he must fly rather than go by horse or ship." He had three significant women in his life, Eleanor of Acquitaine; Amabilia de Bailleol and Alice de Porhoet. Of these only Eleanor is usually listed as a spouse. History has stated that he along with his grandfather and sons had multiple mistresses. (C-502)

Thomas Becket was killed in his reign. Some of Ireland was under British rule and three of his sons started a civil war to uproot their father. (C-2251g)

His will is as follows: "Henry, by the grace of God, King of England, Duke of Normandy and Aquitaine, Count of Anjou, to King Henry, to Richard, Geoffrey, and John, my sons, to Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Archdeacons, Deans, Earls, Barons, Jus
tices, Sheriffs, and all other my faithful subjects, as well clerks and laymen of my territories, within and beyond the seas, greeting. Know ye, that at Waltham, in the presence of R. Bishop of Winchester; J. Bishop of Norwich; G. Chancellor, my son; Master Walter de Constantiis, Archdeacon of Oxford; Godfrey de Lucy, Archdeacon of Derby; Ralph de Glanville; Hugh de Morewic; Ralph fitz Stephen, Chamberlain; and William Rufo; I have made division of some part of my money in this manner:... To the religious houses of England MMMMM marks of silver, to be distributed by the hands of R Archbishop of Canterbury; R Bishop of Winchester; G. Bishop of Ely; and J. Bishop of Norwich; and Ralph de Glanville, Justiciar of England. To the religious houses of the land of the Earl of Anjou, my father, M marks of silver; towards the marriage of poor and free women of Normandy wanting aid C marks of gold, to be distributed by the Archbishop of Rouen, and the Bishops of Bayeaux, Avaranches, Sagiensis. Toward the marriage of poor and free women of the land of my father, the Earl of Anjou, C marks of gold, to be distributed by the Bishops of Main and Anjou. This distribution I have made at the place before written, in the year of the Incarnation 1182. And I charge you, my sons, by the fealty you owe me, and the oath ye have sworn to me, that ye cause it to be firmly and inviolably kept; and whoever shall oppose or contravene it, may he incur the indignation and anger of Almighty God, and mine and God's malediction. And I command you, the Archbishops and Bishops, by the oath ye have sworn to me, and the fealty ye owe to me and to God, that ye solemnly, in your Synods, with lighted candles, excommunicate, and cause to be excommunicated, all such as may presume to infringe my distribution. And know ye that our Lord the Pope has confirmed this my distribution, under his hand and seal, on pain of anathema." 
Henry II "Curtmantle" (I12821)
 
1796 Henry is listed as Henry Couts in the 1860 census for Miami, Ohio. Henry W. Coate is in the Union Twp., Miami Co., 1880, Ohio census records, p. 365a. He was 61, a dry goods merchant, born in Ohio. He listed both his parent's birthe as North Carolina. His wife in 1880 was Hannah, age 55, born Ohio and one son lived with them, Clarkson, age 16. If he is correct on his parents birth place, then Marmaduke and Mary Coppock, his grandparents would probably have been living in North Carolina before South Carolina and Ohio, too. (C-33, 384) H.W. Coate is listed in Beers History of Miami Co., OH as a dealer in groceries, dry goods, clothing, hats, caps, gents, furnishing goods, boots & shoes, tailoring, and Remington sewing machines. (C-10) He began that trade in the year 1867. Previous to that, he had been a farmer for 38 years. Previous to that he or his father are possibly the Henry Coates who was an Underground Railroad conductor along with a David Coates in Montgomery Co., Ohio. Henry W. appears to have written his will in 1848, but it was not probated until 1887 in Miami Co., Ohio (C-1025) COATE, Henry W. (I8091)
 
1797 Henry is probably the first Roby to come to America. He supposedly brought his younger brother Samuel with him. Henry was a judge and tavern owner. (C-2131) ROBY, Henry (I8228)
 
1798 Henry lived in Sterbridge (Hambridge), Curry Revell, when he married Anny Cary in 1700. According to Gary W. Coats of Portland, OR, he came with his brother James to America sometime after his father, John and brother Samuel came over. He appears to be the Henry Coate that is in the Quaker Monthly Meeting Minutes, book 2 held at 20 different locations in Somerset Co., England from 1692 till 1723. Henry first appears in them a couple times in 1692. His next appearance in 1696, then in 1700 when he requests marriage to Ann Cary. He is consistently in the meetings from 1702 on till the end of the minute book in 1723. He is the only Henry I can find in this family of the correct age to account for the Henry who is oft in the Quaker Meeting records during this time frame. (C-1347, 1542)

It is possible that Henry had a second wife named Deborah as I have a DNA cousin match to a descendant of John's son Henry married to a Deborah - at least that's where he believes his Henry Coate fits in.

He likely visited family in America as accounted for by the Henry Coate witnessing his brother James's daughter Mary's wedding to Edmund Sands on Oct. 10, 1720. He was absent from Somerset Quaker records from the 8mo 1719 till the end of the 12mo 1720/21 supporting this. The 12mo 1720/1721 is Feb. 1721. It's also possible that Henry is a son of James that witnesses the wedding. James did not name all of his children in his will, so we don't know them all.

We do not know where he died and could have been a Henry Coate in the American colonies after 1723. He might have had children that emigrated to the colonies also. This remains to be seen. He also might have been the Henry who died in Curry Rivel on 26 Nov 1727. He was an adult. Only the adult males on this page were not named with their relatives which is unfortunate for us.
 
COATE, Henry (I12244)
 
1799 Henry received 200 acres of his father's land on the hill along Yoark Road in his will written on Nov. 22, 1723. He and Esther Willson declared their first intention to marry on Mar 6, 1731 in the Chesterfield Monthly Meeting, NJ. He was supposedly from Buckingham, PA at the time. We now have autosomal DNA matches verifying that I descend from Henry and his wife, Esther Willson. I specifically have found cousins through both Esther Willson's father's and mother's side verifying this line.

A Henry Coat bought 260 acres in 1733 from Robert Willson (brother-in-law). A Henry purchased land in the southwest corner of Readings line in 1735, Hunterdon Co., NJ, north of the Assanpink River (originally the township of Hopewell) from William Biles. A Henry also bought land from Thomas Canby in 1735 which he sold in 1741 to Derrick Hoagland. (C-1,46, 2110)

Our Henry was listed as of Amwell Twp. in 1738 when he voted for John Emley and Benjamin Smith in the voting records for Hunterdon Co., NJ. A Jno. Coate was a candidate, but obviously Henry did not vote for him. (C-1824) He is likely the Henry listed as a freeholder who owned at least 50 acres or a house and three acres or more, living in Amwell Twp., Hunterdon Co., NJ in 1741. (C-294)

In 1757 our Henry moved to New Garden MM, Rowan and Guilford Counties, North Carolina from Kingwood MM, NJ. His certificate of removal from Kingswood to New Garden MM, NC is dated 14th, 7mo 1757 and lists himself and sons Marmaduke, James and John. (C-46b)

He might be on the list of Taxable Persons in Rowan Co., NC in 1759 along with James and William Coats. That Henry is listed with 2 Poles over age 16 (likely referring to his 2 youngest sons that were living with.) However, there is an unrelated (by YDNA) set of Coats in Rowan at the time named William, James and Henry who are there by 1755 in the tax records, who moved to Pasqutank Co., NC by 1769 that would account for them instead.

Our Henry should not be confused with a Henry purchasing land in this same time period in Virginia who bought 200 acres between 1756-1761. (C-1037, 1498) There were many complaints at New Garden MM against Henry & his sons, James & Marmaduke & sometime before 1764, James & Marmaduke left (without asking for a certificate of removal for which they were disowned). Henry was actually dismissed from New Garden on 7/25/1761. Sons Marmaduke and James were not dismissed until 4/29/1769. (C-1497)

Henry then moved to Newberry, South Carolina. Our Henry purchased 200 acres on July 29, 1765 from John Brooks on Scotch Creek in Berkely Co., SC, a year before William purchased land on Scotts/Scotch Creek just south of the town of Newberry, Berkeley (District)?, S.C. supporting the theory he and William were brothers. Henry's witness when he purchased land included William (brother) and James (son or nephew) Coate. (C-891, 912) This land adjoined Benjamin Pearson of Bush River, Ninety Six District, SC as stated in Benjamin's will on Dec. 10, 1784. He was referred to as the late Henry Coates in this will. Near neighbors were also the late Hugh Creightons and John Brooks. The purchase of 200 acres indicates that there were 3 persons in his household at the time.(C-1699, 1700)

There were several other land transactions, any or all of which could be his purchases. A Henry Coats obtained 150 acres on Dec. 6 1768 and May 16, 1769 in what was then Berkley (now Newberry?), South Carolina. His neighbors were Richard Griffin, Jno Caldwell, John Delany and James Cook. A Henry had land on Mudlick Creek, Craven Co. in 1770 when Ann Hagen purchased land adjoining it. Their neighbors were Richard North , William O'neal, and Anthony Griffin. (C-1411, 1835) (C-1404) Lastly, a Henry obtained 100 acres on May 18, 1773 in Berkley on the waters of the Saludy bounded by vacant land. His son Marmaduke owned land in Berkley. His son "Little John" owned land within 2 miles of brother, Marmaduke. His son, James, could be involved in the following purchases. A James bought 150 acres on Dec. 3, 1771 and 250 acres on May 4, 1772 in Berkley.

Henry's estate is probated in 96 District, South Carolina, June 11, 1784. It was administered by John Coate, Benjamin Pearson, George Powell, and bound to John Thomas Jr. for 2000 pounds in the 96th District. Henry Coate was of Bush River in this record. His inventory was made on Aug. 10, 1784 by Samuel Kelly, Hugh Creighton, and Benjamin Pearson. He had a very small estate inventory and sale. Buyers were Joseph Campbel, one cow and calf, 1 old loom, 1 horse, and 1 trunk; John Man, 1 mare; Henry Coate, 1 mare; John Coate, 1 razor hone?, 1 tract of 200 acrs of land. John Coate, Benjamin Pearson and George Powell put up two thousand pounds sterling to ensure that the estate of Henry Coate, deceased would be distributed properly on June 11, 1784. It is housed at the Abbeville Courthouse, in Abbeville, South Carolina. (Box 21- pack 48 and 487). The original land he purchased from John Brooks in 1765 was in the hands of his son John Coate of Newberry.

John sold it in parts, in 1799 to Henry Coate of Newberry (his son), in 1800 to Frederick Nance, and in 1802 to John McMorris. John was listed as deceased before 1803.
 
COATE, Henry * BigY: R-FT146901 (I11761)
 
1800 Henry V, also known as Emperor of Germany, was the Holy Roman Emperor (in 1106) who died leaving his widow, Matilda, to marry an unpopular choice, Geoffrey, Count of Anjou. When Matilda's father died without any other living legitimate ch, he had his nobles promise they would recognize her as Queen. (C-330) ROMAN EMPEROR, Henry V (I12472)
