2601	John moved to Minnesota after the Civil War according to "Gallia County Ohio, People in History". There is a John living in Blue Earth County, Minnesota in the 1870 and 1880 census records. In 1880, this John Rees is age 54, b. Wales.s a farmer. His wife was Mary, age 40, b. Ohio His has 2 stepdaughters, Maggie Roberts and Elizabeth Roberts, age 20 and 17 respectively, b. in Minnesota. All of his own children were also born in Minnesota. Annie, age 13, Emma, age 11, Ellen, age 9, Catherine, age 7, Esther, age 4; and William Rees, age 1. This doesn't appear to match the information on him in "Gallia County Ohio People in History to 1980" as stated below. (CL-711) Any of the following Johns might be Charles son John. According to "Gallia County Ohio People in History to 1980", he had a son John and 3 others named Charles, David and George. All four of these sons are probably his 4 sons listed in the 1840 census between age 10 and 15. There don't seem to be any John's matching this age range in Gallia Co., OH records. Therefore, he might be anyone of the following instead.1) John Reese who married unknown in Addison Twp., Gallia Co., OH printed in the Aug 2, 1845 Gallipolis Journal. (Torn)2) John Rees married Harriet Smith on Aug 19, 1847 in Gallia Co., Ohio*3) John Reese, age 56 and wife Ann, age 56, both born in Wales in the 1860 census for Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., OH, p. 234, living right next door to Elizabeth Phillips at this point in time (his possible sister???) There is a possibility that the census taker misunderstood their ages and wrote down 56 when it should have been 36 for each of them.... or this John is born much earlier and was not a son living with Charles in the 1840 census... his age is what seems off. He is living between Elizabeth and her brother David Rees.... It has to be the same family from location and timing.4) John Rees, in the 1860 Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., OH census, p. 210 who was age 45, born in Wales and married to a "Jana", age 36 with children named Mary A., Ellen, John, Elizabeth, (Saml.), Evan, Daniel, and (Aaron?).5) J. Rees living in Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio in 1874, Twp. 6, Range 16, section 32. If he is this one, then their is an E. Reese living adjacent to him in that same section that is a likely relative.6) John Reese, age 50 in 1880, in the Cleveland, Cuyahog Co., OH census. His parents were born in Wales. He was and Iron Mill worker. His wife was Eliza Reese, age 51 and son William, age 18 was still living at home. (CL-709)	REESE, John (I1576)
2602	John moved to Queen Anne's Parish, St. George's, Maryland about 1700 after starting to have children in All Hollows Parish, Ann Arundel, Maryland. All his children were baptised in Queen Anne's Parish. His property there was called "Fol. They sold this land Sep. 19, 1718. A John Turner bought 100 acres of land on July 20, 1704 called Turner's Adventure in Dorchester Co., Maryland that possibly belonged to this John or his father.	TURNER, John (I10659)
2603	John Noble in his 1752 will names brother James Calhoun and executors included Patrick and William Calhoun (other possible brother-in-laws).	NOBLE, John (I10451)
2604	John obtained the title of Gentleman Justice of Anne Arundel County, Maryland in 1676. In his will probated on May 31, 1705, he named his daughter, Elizabeth Duvall, the wife of John Duvall, and his grand-daughter Mary Duvall.	JONES, William (I5652)
2605	John Perilla was a pedestrian in Gowanda, NY when he was hit by a bus and died. John was married twice. He had one daughter named Nancy. He was living with his cousin, Tony Cesario in the 1930 census.	PERILLA, John (I1402)
2606	John purchased 300 acres in Berkley Co., SC on a small branch of the Saludy River called Beaverdam Creek on Sept. 1766. He was likely the John who purchased one hundred acres of land on Bush Creek in Berkley Co., SC on Oct. 16, 1770 adjoiilliam and Joseph Wright's land (brothers). John was disowned by the Bush River MM in South Carolina on 1772,8,29 and on 1773,7,3 at the Cane Creek MM, NC for unknown reasons. John obtained 200 more acres of land on the waters of Little River, one of the north branches of the Saludy River. He sold this land to James Douglas in March of 1774. John sold 200 acres of his original land grant on Oct. 1, 1785 to Joseph Thomson. (Joseph Thompson, Jr. lived near Big John in the 1790 census). He is the John Wright who sold land to William Coates on Nov. 2, 1785 in Newberry Co., South Carolina. (C-904, 908) There are a couple different death dates listed for him. The other is 1790, based on information in "The Annals of Newberry Co., SC," that says he died before his father (who died abt. June of 1790). Whereas his father is not in the census records, John appears to be still living near James Brooks on pg. 77. He is one of two, a John with 4 males above age 16, 5 under and 4 females; or there was one male over, 2 under 16 and 3 females. The census record took a period of time to gather, so it is still entirely possible that the census taker got his information down shortly before he and his father both died, missing his father entirely. This John might have served as private in the Revolutionary War under Colonel William Thompson's Rangers defending Charleston Harbor on June 28, 1776. It was known as the "Battle of Sullivan's Island." (C-588) DAR records indicate that a John Sr. was a Private in the Revolutionary War. John, however, was a Quaker when he married Jemimah Haworth in Bush River Quaker records in 1768 meaning that it's not probable that he is the Revolutionary War soldier. Persons in this family who attended the wedding were his parents, John and Rachel Wright, Joseph Wright, Isaac Cook, William Wright and John Coate (I am assuming the later is Big John Coate, his brother-in-law.) (C-866)	WRIGHT, John (I15856)
2607	John purchased the following properties in Anne Arundel Co., Maryland over his lifetime: "Duvall's Range" of 708 acres on Nov 16, 1694; "Duvall's Delight" of 1000 acres on Dec 10, 1695 ; "What You Will" of 373 acres on Jun 1, 1700; "Lugf 780 acres in 1702; and "Honest Man's Lot" of 110 acres on July 22, 1707. After his death, his son John appears to have inherited or sold "Duvall's Delight" of 3,108 acres on Apr 10, 1715. He was what you would call "A Man of Property". Harry Wright Newman conjectures in "Mareen Duvall of Middleton Plantation" that John was born in France and was separated from his father as and infant. If his theory is correct, he is the John who arrived in Maryland from France in November of 1678. This would account for why he was not in the military service like his brother, Mareen "the elder" when there was an Indian uprising shortly before he arrived. It is clear from Mareen's will that John is his oldest son. Mareen "the elder" was simply the oldest of 2 sons that Mareen named after himself by two different wives. John was the most distinguished of his father's sons. He was an officer in the military of Anne Arundel Co., Maryland in 1696. He was listed as a member of the Grand Jury in 1698. He was an advisor to the council regarding Richard Clark's treason in 1708. In Oct. of 1710, he petitioned the Grand Jury about excessive fees being levied by the court that could not be sustained by debtors either in the form of a tax or for their court fees. When he married, his father in law gave he and his wife the gift of property called "Wilson's Grove". He added to this property over time and also owned "Duvall's Range, Duvall's Delight, What You Will, Out Quarter, Lugg Ox, and Honest Man's Lott" totaling thousands of acres. He donated land for the earliest Parish church called the Church of St. Barnabas before the year 1705. He had 12 children by his wife, but also had a love affair over multiple years with Hester Ijams, a sister of his brother's wife. They had three children together, John (who died young), Anne and Elizabeth. In 1705, with his wife's permission, he gave his "mistress" 233 acres called "Burgess Choice" for her support and the support of his children by her and any others she might have in the future.	DUVALL, John Jean (I7174)
2608	John Quincy Glenn's cemetery stone has no dates. It commemorates the fact that he was in Co. B., the 36th Ohio Infantry in the American Civil War. It is assumed by me that he died in that war before 1866, but I certainly could be in erre. He is buried with his father William H. Glenn and his grandparents, James and Polly Glenn.	GLENN, John Quincy Adams (I14685)
2609	John received "Hammond's Contrivance" from his father in his will in 1753. He was not named in his mother's will suggesting he had died by 1779. He might be the John Hammond Sr. who left a will in 1772 in Worchester Co., MD in vol. 38, p	HAMMOND, John (I1974)
2610	John received 80 acres of US Military Survey Land on 8/15/1837 in TWP 4N, Range 3W and section 12 near his brother Nathaniels land and his father's land. This is recorded at the Zanesville land office. (CL-542)	TOBIN, John (I16031)
2611	John received land grants in Barnwell Co., SC in 1786, perhaps from service in the Revolutionary War: Hickman, John, p243, vol 10, 1786; Hickman, John, p167, vol 12, 1786. (E) He owned land on Edisto River, Orangeburg Co., South Ca.

2612	John Rolfe was clearly a businessman. From the Powhatten tribes' point of view, he kidnapped the woman we know as "Pocahontas" to hold her as a royal hostage of the colony in their negotiations with the chief. Pocahontas' story is a sad and tragic one. According to an interview by Pocahontas' sister, she had been raped by a Sir Thomas Dale who could be the father of Thomas Rolfe instead of his assumed father John Rolfe. Pocahontas had become so depressed that the English feared for her life. Word was sent to her father. Her eldest sister and her husband were dispatched to visit her. This is when this confidence was given between the sisters. John Rolfe is also known for the one who brought precious tobacco seeds and tobacco to the colonies. Tobacco had been a monopoly of Spain up to that point. It is only conjecture how he came upon seeds as an Englishman. John Rolfe's parentage is unknown as of 2022. The way it had been traced has been disproven by historians. John had 3 wives, one who came with him to Jamestown and died young. He married again after "Pocahontas" died in 1617 of unknown causes on the voyage from England back to Virginia, and one after that. He died when he was around 37 or 38. His date and place of birth could be totally incorrect.	ROLFE, John (I15405)
2613	John sailed from Plymouth, England to Nantascot (which was named Hull in 1646) on Mar. 20, 1630 on the "Mary and John." He lived and was possibly born in Mosterne, Dorset, England before emmigrating to the colonies. (C-806) He arrived ws parents, Thomas Gallop and Frances Paulet and brother, Humphrey Gallop on May 31, 1630. (Varying parents have been given by one other source as John Gallop and an unknown Crabbe.) John is remembered for "the first naval engagement" presumably of the colonies. (C-813) He held the title of Captain. He was educated at a military school in Holland before emigrating with his family to Massachusetts. (C-682) He is the John Gallop listed as a person owning property in Boston in 1647 in the "Book of Possessions." (C-978) His will dated 10th month 20th day, 1649, listed the following persons: Christobel (his wife), son John, Dau. Joan Gallop, two youngest sons Samuel and Nathaniel, his daughter's son John Jay. It was signed by his wife Christobel, son John Gallop and Hannah his wife and daughter, Joane Jay. It appears to have been probated on the 24th, 5th mo, 1655. (C-813)	GALLOP, John (I13062)
2614	John supposedly married and left descendants in England. (C-650)	STOCKETT, John (I439)
2615	John Theobold End was the executor of a will for Anne Shilbert, 1752 in Germantown, Philadelphia Co., Pennsylvania His own will named wife, Sibilla, and children Daniel, John, Theobald and Mary (wife of George Miller).	ENDT, Johnathan Theobold (I8719)
2616	John Thomas and family probably came to the colonies between 1644 and 1649. He is listed a a freeman in 1669 and a proprietor in 1685. He wrote a will in 1670.	THOMAS, John (I13530)
2617	John Tobin was born east of Columbus, Ohio. He originally worked in farming in Sangamon, Illinois with his father and then traveled. He returned to Sangamon and tried stock buying. He returned finally to farming finding that his true ocon. In the 1910 census, he was listed in Sangamon, Illinois at age 75 with his wife Eliza. He is buried back in Franklin Co., Ohio. He was a Democrat in politics.	TOBIN, John W. (I11943)
2618	John was a farmer by trade, not to be confused with his nephew whom was a physician. He moved from Bedford Co., VA in 1824 to Clermont Co., OH where he purchased land previously owned by Ridley in Pleasant Valley. He is likely the Johins who lived in Ohio Twp., Clermont Co., OH in the 1830 census. He was between 30 and 40. His wife was between 20 and 30. They had 2 sons under under age 5, and one from 5-10. He died there in 1879 of paralysis. (CL-504, 569)	GASKINS, John G. (I8324)
2619	John was a merchant. He is listed in Medlin's, [UL:Quaker Families:UL]. He was listed as age 38 in the 1850 Clarke Co., AL census. There was a John Coates that along with a Turner was accused of murdering a man named Cox. Coates len and Turner was punished in the stocks. I'm not sure if this incident applies to this John or not. (C-1599, 1784) According to Olivia Holt, this John achieved the rank of Major in the service and died in Sumter Co., AL. Another source said that he moved to Mississippi at one point in his life. (C-2285)	COATES, Major John (I13758)
2620	John was a shoemaker by trade. John was married twice but his second wife is unknown. He had at least one child by his first marriage who died young. (C-2272)	YARWOOD, John (I8434)
2621	John was born either in PA or NC depending upon which account is referred to. No first hand records have been found to prove which one it is. John was in the War of 1812. (C-218) There are two John Masts near each other in Ohio in tht half of the 19th century. Ours is the John who was taxed in 1816 in Montgomery County and was in the 1830 census for Butler Twp., Montgomery Co., Ohio and died there in 1863. He is the nephew of the second John (1760-1832) who lived in Miami Co., Ohio instead. He and his wife had 13 children.	MAST, John (I13103)
2622	John was captured by the Indians as a teenager. He helped his niece escape and both were later released along at Fort Pit. He was called "Indian John" fovever after.	EWING, John (I7863)
2623	John was deeded 295 acres of land by his father Robert in 1755 and 265 more in 1759. He likely was the John Young who obtained 112 acres more in 1767 of land that was his fathers in Augusta Co., Virginia south of Whistle Creek. His fatd died in 1762. (CL-562) He and his brother Samuel and likely father Robert were appointed to work on building a road from Brown's bridge to the Glebe land in May of 1753. He had a son James and 3 daughters. He was involved in the settlement of his father's estate in the following Chaukley record. "Chalkley's III, page 87: Will Book 3, Page 367.	YOUNG, John (I8120)
2624	John was either born in Hartford or Middletown, Middlesex Co., CT. His will is transcribed at http://dunhamwilcox.net/wills/cornwall_johnsr1707.htm as follows:"Digest of the Early Connecticut Probate Records(Hartford District),Charles W.ring,Hartford, 1902,Vol 2, p 47-48 CORNWALL, John, Sen., Middletown. Invt.	CORNWELL, Sgt. John (I15684)
2625	John was from Borrow, L., England. (C-1349)	BORROW, John (I12991)
2626	John was from Great Moresome, near Guisborough in N. Riding, Yorkshire, England. He emigrated from Yorkshire, England to Lurgan (Legacory), Co. Armagh, IRL before his son Thomas's birth in 1617. He is probably the John listed in Drumgorre 1664 Hearthmoney Rolls. (C-956, 1450) An ancestor of this John could be the John Calurd of Morsom, who willed his estate to wife, Margaret and son Thomas Calverd. This was written on Oct. 1562 and probated on May 10, 1565. (C-956)	CALVERT, John (I15744)
2627	John was High Sheriff in 1544. (C-1516)	PULESTON, John (I12405)
2628	John was in the American Revolution and served as a Captain.	CARTMILL, John (I6065)
2629	John was in the Burlington Co., Springfield Twp., NJ tax lists for 1773, as was brother Daniel and that he left the following will. (C-2292E, E) WILL OF JOHN COATE (transcribed by Charlotte Coats Siercks) Be it remembered that I John Cf the township of Springfield, County of Burlington and State of New Jersey. Being sick and weak of body, but of sound and disposing mind and memory, yet calling to mind the uncertainty of all sublunary enjoyments and that it is appointed for all men once to die, do make this my last will and testament. I give my soul into the hands of Almighty God who gave it to me as in the disposal of a being infinitely good and as to the worldly estate where with it hath pleased God to bless me my will is that it be disposed of in the following manner. First I give and bequeath unto my well beloved niece Hester Earle, wife of Caleb Earle my brown mare. Second I give and bequeath unto my beloved nephew Caleb Earle all the residue and remainder of my Estate both real and personal what ever and where ever the same may be, unto him the said Caleb Earle his heirs and assignees for ever, excepting only a certain Bond o obligation that I have against my Brother Daniel Coate which I hereby give him. Lastly I do hereby constitute and appoint my nephew Caleb Earle sole Executor of this my last will and testament. Sealed with my seal and dated this 25 day of April 1786. Affirmed 12 June 1786--Inventory of John Coate late of the Township of Springfield, County of Burlington, State of New Jersey. Purse and Apparel ..........................................6# 4S 6P Notes of Hand and Book accompts.............................66# 10S 4P Household Goods.............................................14# 10S 3P One Brown Mare..............................................20# -S -P _____________ 107# 5S 3P I believe this John to belong to the above info for the following reasons. 1) He had a brother Daniel who also lived in Burlington Co., NJ as an adult. 2) His brother Daniel was still alive when he wrote his will. 3) He's the only John in my extensive database with a brother named Daniel, who is the correct age and of the correct place to fit the John in this will. His brother Henry had a daughter Esther that is likely the Esther Coate, his niece, who married a Caleb Earle. Caleb Earle was the executor of his estate. He is also likely to be the John Coate who was one of several Quaker males who were given title to donated land on which to build a proper meeting house in 1775 in Burlington Co., New Jersey. The meeting house was erected on a knoll with a beautiful view at the intersection of roads leading to Juliustown and Pemberton called Arney's Mount. Other "trustees" were Jacob, Restore, Samuel and Francis Shinn, as well as William Lovett and James Smith.	COATE, John (I1414)
2630	John was left land in his father's will, "Arnold Gray" and it's addition as well as "The Neglect".	WELSH, John * (I5512)
2631	John was listed as a prisoner for 24 hours in Lanchashier,1659, by Besse's "The Suffering of the Quakers," for which he paid 2s. He was fined 14 shillings for not taking the oath of loyalty to the King in 1664. He and his wife witnesn the close relatives column the marriage of James Wright and Susannah Croudson in that Monthly Meeting on the 19d 4m 1666. I do not yet know if they were related to the bride or the groom, but it is likely that it is a grandchild to them considering their age at the time. One of their daughters would have to have had a first marriage to a Wright or a Croudson for this to be true. His will names wife Margaret, sons Samuel (to whom he gave his house), John of Great Sankei (Sankey is in co. Lancashire, England) and Thomas, and daughters Elinor, (wife of Robert Vernon), Mary (wife of Thomas Barnes) and Elizabeth (wife of Randle Speakman). It was written in 1699 in Mobberley, England. (C-1073)	MINSHALL, John (I13377)
2632	John was living in Covington, Ohio during the War of 1812 according to his obituary. He and his wife were born in South Carolina according to their 1850 census record. One grandson stated he was born in North Carolina and according tor he was born in South Carolina. Of course, this confusion could have been because the part of North Carolina he was born in later became South Carolina in 1788. After his childhood the obituary states that he went into "Teaming" as profession and drove from his parents home to Charleston, South Carolina. This supports him being raised by Big John, as Big John's sons, Wright and James were also into "Teaming". He also has one of 2 supposed decendants that have been tested for their DNA who is related to 3 other possible Big John descendants via sons William and James. The list of John's children came from one of his grandsons, John R. Coats in a handwritten document in Winchester, VA. By Sep. 5, 1822, John and Sally are living in Randolph Co., Indiana when they sold their land in Miami Co., Ohio to Benjamin Lehman. (C-2568) John is living in Randolph Co., Indiana in the 1850 census on pg. 63, White River Twp. He was age 63, b. South Carolina. His wife was age 60, b. South Carolina. Children still living with them included Lewis age 21, Andrew age 16 and Dempsey, age 6, all born in Indiana. Living next door to him is son, Joseph Coats, age 23, b. Indiana, married to Esther, age 27, b. Ohio with 2 daughters. On page 79 of this same census, son William Coats is listed, age 33, b. Ohio married to a Mary (age unreadable). On page 62, son Thomas W. Coats, age 42, b. Ohio with wife Mary age 43 and children. Son Gabrael is on page 64 at age 26, b. Indiana. There is a remarkable newspaper article on a family reunion of this couple and almost all of their descendants that was dated Jun 22, 1859 in Randolph Co., Indiana. John and Sally were at the head of the table and listed as ages 71 and 70 at the time. All of their present family was sitting in order of their age of birth around them and named in this article. There is also another lovely article on a family reunion that took place sometime in the 1880's after all but Mary "Polly" had passed from this original family. Mary was 74 at the time. There were 180 family members present. It stated that John was a farmer by night and a Justice of the Peace by day, a man of "iron constitution". He and Sally had raised 12 children and lost 2 others at a young age. They were pioneers in Randolph Co., Indiana and oft encountered wild beasts and Indians in their long lives.	COATS, John Sr. (I14997)
2633	John was married four times to Margaret Thwaites, Margaret Hastings, Elizabeth Reade, and Anne York. He held the title, Lord of Studley and Hutton Conyers. It is unknown as to which child belonged to which mother, and his children mightnclude Joan, William or Peter. Peter isn't listed in Mary Reumah Mallory's work, and Joan and William might be the sons of Sampson instead. (Sir John's mother was Margret, either Margret Twaytes or Margret Hastings. One of this descendants is Queen Elizabeth II.	MALLORY, John (I14282)
2634	John was not listed in his father's will of 1717. (C-1991)	WELLS, John (I7860)
2635	John was not one of the early settlers of Jamestown as the first group of 104 settlers landed in 1607 and established Jamestown, Virginia. He wasn't even born for another 33 years. He still was one of it's first centuries settlers though and the ancestor of General George Rogers Clark, William Lewis of the Lewis and Clark Expedition, Major General Jonathan Clark as well as our Clark line.	CLARK, John (He left no children according to Wikitree) (I15396)
2636	John was sent for in 1693 by his uncle Thomas Sisom. He settled in Northern Liberties, Philadelphia, PA when he came over with his brothers William, Thomas and George who were all supposedly Quakers. John however, married at Christ Church in Philadelphia. He was Presbyterian when he married Mary Heale. </line><line /><line>A street was named after this John Coates in Philadelphia. He is listed as John Cotes Jr. when he was executor for his brother William's estate. That might mean that their father's name was John or that there was another older John living in the area at the same time. (Colonial Families of PA: E) </line><line /><line>He might be the John Coate who attended the wedding of Daniel Mickle and Hannah Dennis of Newton Twp. on the 1 mo 27 day, 1711. (C-1,1680) He purchased a 3 acre brickyard in 1719 in Philadelphia just like his brothers, Thomas and William did. He helped administer his brother, William Sr.'s estate in 1749. (C-1665) </line><line /><line>This John Coates along with Thomas Shute owned 4 tenements on 2nd Street in Philadelphia that they were renting out for 6 pounds, 10 shillings annually in the American Weekly Mercury dated Thursday August 23, to Thursday August 30, 1739. He is likely the John Coates Jr. who donated 15 pounds for the establishment of a hospital in Philadelphia which was reported on May 29, 1755 in the Pennsylvania Gazette. </line><line /><line>His will was written in 1754 and probated in 1760, which lists a large number of children. His wife was apparently deceased by that time. (Will Book L, p. 409) It is transcribed and available at www.ancestry.com. John Coats. City of Philadelphia. Brickmaker. Dec. 7, 1754. March 20, 1760.

2639	John was the Duke of Lancaster, Earl of Derby, Lincoln and the Duke of Acquitaine. He was the 4th son of Edward III. He dominated power in the English government the latter part of his father's reign. His third wife was his long time mistress by whom he'd had four children previously named "Beauforts". The children received legitimate titles under King Richard II and became prominent in English history. John, through these children, is an ancestor of King Henry VIII. By marriage to his second wife, he was entitled to become King of Castile. Burke says he was the King of Castile and Leon. At any rate, in 1387 he gave up his claim to this title in favor of his daughter Catherine. His will is as follows: "I, John, son of the King of England, Duke of Lancaster, February 3d, 1397. My body to be buried in the Cathedral Church of St. Paul, of London, near the principal altar, beside my most dear late wife Blanch, who is there interred.

2643	John was the firstborn, but he is listed as an invalid or idiot in his father's will and Richard was therefore given the duties of the firstborn in the will. His birth date by some is conjectured to be the 1567 christening date belono a John, son of Richard. There is a Richard of Morley that has a son John in 1591 but that same Richard appears to have named a second son, John in 1598 which would have been too late for this John to be the father of Bartholomew. Instead of Richard, his father could be William, as William christened a son, John, on May 24, 1564 in Wilmslow also. (C-204) The siblings I have listed for him are taken from similar christening dates to children of the Richard of that time period. (C-204) He is listed as John of Houghe in his son, Bartholomew's christening record in 1610 at Wilmslow Parish, Cheshire, England. Hough is a village currently on the south side of Wilmslow and 3 or 4 miles from Mobberley. It is the only christening record that is available for John of Houghe's children in the Wilmslow Parish Records. (C-204) Either one of these Johns might be the one who had a son John out of wedlock. A John's burial record lists him as the bastard son of John Coppock, b. Sep 1593 in the Mobberly Parish records. He was born and buried on the same day. (E)	COPPOCK, John * (I8361)
2644	John was the High Sheriff of Derbyshire in 1688. (C-2129)	BORROWE, John (I10007)
2645	John was willed 5 lbs. by his stepfather, Aaron Coppock, on 10/3/1726 being called a "son-in-law" in the will. Son-in-law in this case meant stepson. John and Mary his wife witnessed the marriage of his step-brother, John Coppock toet Coulson in 1731. John and Mary were listed as the parents of William White when he married Sarah Pugh in 1743. John and Mary were from East Nottingham Twp., Chester Co., PA at the time. (C-1302)	WHITE, John (I13769)
2646	John was Williams' first born son. He had the same name as a cousin born the day after him in Newberry, SC who was the son of Marmaduke and Mary Coate.	COATE, John (I14808)
2647	John Whilton Coppock died in 1636 according to Gary Hawley, but the 1636 death date could apply to at least 3 different John's in that time period. Further proof is needed to narrow it to John Whilton Coppock.	WHILTON, John (I233)
2648	John William was given the nickname of Pedro by Mexican workers and he was called Peter or Pete for short. His boss and then partner, Hugh J. Glenn was murdered a few days after he married his daughter Ella. Hugh Glenn left him a greatf debt. He and his wife Ella divorced in 1891. He was a millionaire. His life ended prematurely when he was shot in the back by a "nester" in 1897. (CL-509, E) The ranch hand that killed him was Ed Oliver. He claimed self defense and although there were witnesses who said French was unarmed, somehow Ed was acquitted of murder. There was a rumor that some ranchers and business men conspired to have him killed. After his death, his heirs basically frittered away all his money and his estate was liquidated to pay for his debts.	FRENCH, John William (I6050)
2649	John witnessed the marriage of his step-brother through his wife's side, John Coppock in 1731 and is listed in the relatives column. His wife, if still living, did not attend.	ROBINSON, John (I16095)
2650	John would be the youngest son in the 1820 census, listed at age 10 to 16, giving him a birth range of 1804 to 1810. If he is the John Clark who shows up for the first time in the 1840 census by name, he was age 40-50. His wife was oe 20-30 and they had one daughter between age 5 and 10. That indicates that he probably didn't marry until 1830 or after. (CL-335, 337) There is a John B. who married Polly McDonald on Jun 26, 1821 in Cabell Co., VA that might account for our John or the John in the 1840 census.... though with the number of children they have, it's more likely that they are 2 different Johns or that this is his 2nd wife. My mother has a small match to 2 different descendants of this John Clark, 4.8 cM's on chrome 1 from 118-145 and on chrome 9 from 116-118 at Gedmatch indicating that this John Clark could be a step brother to our William D. Clark as surmised.	CLARK, John James (I8227)

John moved to Minnesota after the Civil War according to "Gallia County Ohio, People in History". There is a John living in Blue Earth County, Minnesota in the 1870 and 1880 census records. In 1880, this John Rees is age 54, b. Wales.s a farmer. His wife was Mary, age 40, b. Ohio His has 2 stepdaughters, Maggie Roberts and Elizabeth Roberts, age 20 and 17 respectively, b. in Minnesota. All of his own children were also born in Minnesota. Annie, age 13, Emma, age 11, Ellen, age 9, Catherine, age 7, Esther, age 4; and William Rees, age 1. This doesn't appear to match the information on him in "Gallia County Ohio People in History to 1980" as stated below. (CL-711)

Any of the following Johns might be Charles son John. According to "Gallia County Ohio People in History to 1980", he had a son John and 3 others named Charles, David and George. All four of these sons are probably his 4 sons listed in the 1840 census between age 10 and 15. There don't seem to be any John's matching this age range in Gallia Co., OH records. Therefore, he might be anyone of the following instead.1) John Reese who married unknown in Addison Twp., Gallia Co., OH printed in the Aug 2, 1845 Gallipolis Journal. (Torn)2) John Rees married Harriet Smith on Aug 19, 1847 in Gallia Co., Ohio*3) John Reese, age 56 and wife Ann, age 56, both born in Wales in the 1860 census for Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., OH, p. 234, living right next door to Elizabeth Phillips at this point in time (his possible sister???) There is a possibility that the census taker misunderstood their ages and wrote down 56 when it should have been 36 for each of them.... or this John is born much earlier and was not a son living with Charles in the 1840 census... his age is what seems off. He is living between Elizabeth and her brother David Rees.... It has to be the same family from location and timing.4) John Rees, in the 1860 Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., OH census, p. 210 who was age 45, born in Wales and married to a "Jana", age 36 with children named Mary A., Ellen, John, Elizabeth, (Saml.), Evan, Daniel, and (Aaron?).5) J. Rees living in Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio in 1874, Twp. 6, Range 16, section 32. If he is this one, then their is an E. Reese living adjacent to him in that same section that is a likely relative.6) John Reese, age 50 in 1880, in the Cleveland, Cuyahog Co., OH census. His parents were born in Wales. He was and Iron Mill worker. His wife was Eliza Reese, age 51 and son William, age 18 was still living at home. (CL-709)

John moved to Queen Anne's Parish, St. George's, Maryland about 1700 after starting to have children in All Hollows Parish, Ann Arundel, Maryland. All his children were baptised in Queen Anne's Parish. His property there was called "Fol. They sold this land Sep. 19, 1718. A John Turner bought 100 acres of land on July 20, 1704 called Turner's Adventure in Dorchester Co., Maryland that possibly belonged to this John or his father.

2606

John purchased 300 acres in Berkley Co., SC on a small branch of the Saludy River called Beaverdam Creek on Sept. 1766. He was likely the John who purchased one hundred acres of land on Bush Creek in Berkley Co., SC on Oct. 16, 1770 adjoiilliam and Joseph Wright's land (brothers). John was disowned by the Bush River MM in South Carolina on 1772,8,29 and on 1773,7,3 at the Cane Creek MM, NC for unknown reasons. John obtained 200 more acres of land on the waters of Little River, one of the north branches of the Saludy River. He sold this land to James Douglas in March of 1774. John sold 200 acres of his original land grant on Oct. 1, 1785 to Joseph Thomson. (Joseph Thompson, Jr. lived near Big John in the 1790 census). He is the John Wright who sold land to William Coates on Nov. 2, 1785 in Newberry Co., South Carolina. (C-904, 908)

There are a couple different death dates listed for him. The other is 1790, based on information in "The Annals of Newberry Co., SC," that says he died before his father (who died abt. June of 1790). Whereas his father is not in the census records, John appears to be still living near James Brooks on pg. 77. He is one of two, a John with 4 males above age 16, 5 under and 4 females; or there was one male over, 2 under 16 and 3 females. The census record took a period of time to gather, so it is still entirely possible that the census taker got his information down shortly before he and his father both died, missing his father entirely. This John might have served as private in the Revolutionary War under Colonel William Thompson's Rangers defending Charleston Harbor on June 28, 1776. It was known as the "Battle of Sullivan's Island." (C-588)

DAR records indicate that a John Sr. was a Private in the Revolutionary War. John, however, was a Quaker when he married Jemimah Haworth in Bush River Quaker records in 1768 meaning that it's not probable that he is the Revolutionary War soldier. Persons in this family who attended the wedding were his parents, John and Rachel Wright, Joseph Wright, Isaac Cook, William Wright and John Coate (I am assuming the later is Big John Coate, his brother-in-law.) (C-866)

WRIGHT, John (I15856)

2607

John purchased the following properties in Anne Arundel Co., Maryland over his lifetime: "Duvall's Range" of 708 acres on Nov 16, 1694; "Duvall's Delight" of 1000 acres on Dec 10, 1695 ; "What You Will" of 373 acres on Jun 1, 1700; "Lugf 780 acres in 1702; and "Honest Man's Lot" of 110 acres on July 22, 1707. After his death, his son John appears to have inherited or sold "Duvall's Delight" of 3,108 acres on Apr 10, 1715. He was what you would call "A Man of Property". Harry Wright Newman conjectures in "Mareen Duvall of Middleton Plantation" that John was born in France and was separated from his father as and infant. If his theory is correct, he is the John who arrived in Maryland from France in November of 1678. This would account for why he was not in the military service like his brother, Mareen "the elder" when there was an Indian uprising shortly before he arrived. It is clear from Mareen's will that John is his oldest son. Mareen "the elder" was simply the oldest of 2 sons that Mareen named after himself by two different wives.

John was the most distinguished of his father's sons. He was an officer in the military of Anne Arundel Co., Maryland in 1696. He was listed as a member of the Grand Jury in 1698. He was an advisor to the council regarding Richard Clark's treason in 1708. In Oct. of 1710, he petitioned the Grand Jury about excessive fees being levied by the court that could not be sustained by debtors either in the form of a tax or for their court fees.

When he married, his father in law gave he and his wife the gift of property called "Wilson's Grove". He added to this property over time and also owned "Duvall's Range, Duvall's Delight, What You Will, Out Quarter, Lugg Ox, and Honest Man's Lott" totaling thousands of acres.

He donated land for the earliest Parish church called the Church of St. Barnabas before the year 1705. He had 12 children by his wife, but also had a love affair over multiple years with Hester Ijams, a sister of his brother's wife. They had three children together, John (who died young), Anne and Elizabeth. In 1705, with his wife's permission, he gave his "mistress" 233 acres called "Burgess Choice" for her support and the support of his children by her and any others she might have in the future.

John Quincy Glenn's cemetery stone has no dates. It commemorates the fact that he was in Co. B., the 36th Ohio Infantry in the American Civil War. It is assumed by me that he died in that war before 1866, but I certainly could be in erre. He is buried with his father William H. Glenn and his grandparents, James and Polly Glenn.

John received "Hammond's Contrivance" from his father in his will in 1753. He was not named in his mother's will suggesting he had died by 1779. He might be the John Hammond Sr. who left a will in 1772 in Worchester Co., MD in vol. 38, p

John Rolfe was clearly a businessman. From the Powhatten tribes' point of view, he kidnapped the woman we know as "Pocahontas" to hold her as a royal hostage of the colony in their negotiations with the chief. Pocahontas' story is a sad and tragic one. According to an interview by Pocahontas' sister, she had been raped by a Sir Thomas Dale who could be the father of Thomas Rolfe instead of his assumed father John Rolfe. Pocahontas had become so depressed that the English feared for her life. Word was sent to her father. Her eldest sister and her husband were dispatched to visit her. This is when this confidence was given between the sisters.

John Rolfe is also known for the one who brought precious tobacco seeds and tobacco to the colonies. Tobacco had been a monopoly of Spain up to that point. It is only conjecture how he came upon seeds as an Englishman. John Rolfe's parentage is unknown as of 2022. The way it had been traced has been disproven by historians.

John had 3 wives, one who came with him to Jamestown and died young. He married again after "Pocahontas" died in 1617 of unknown causes on the voyage from England back to Virginia, and one after that. He died when he was around 37 or 38. His date and place of birth could be totally incorrect.

John sailed from Plymouth, England to Nantascot (which was named Hull in 1646) on Mar. 20, 1630 on the "Mary and John." He lived and was possibly born in Mosterne, Dorset, England before emmigrating to the colonies. (C-806) He arrived ws parents, Thomas Gallop and Frances Paulet and brother, Humphrey Gallop on May 31, 1630. (Varying parents have been given by one other source as John Gallop and an unknown Crabbe.)

John is remembered for "the first naval engagement" presumably of the colonies. (C-813) He held the title of Captain. He was educated at a military school in Holland before emigrating with his family to Massachusetts. (C-682) He is the John Gallop listed as a person owning property in Boston in 1647 in the "Book of Possessions." (C-978)

His will dated 10th month 20th day, 1649, listed the following persons: Christobel (his wife), son John, Dau. Joan Gallop, two youngest sons Samuel and Nathaniel, his daughter's son John Jay. It was signed by his wife Christobel, son John Gallop and Hannah his wife and daughter, Joane Jay. It appears to have been probated on the 24th, 5th mo, 1655. (C-813)

John was a farmer by trade, not to be confused with his nephew whom was a physician. He moved from Bedford Co., VA in 1824 to Clermont Co., OH where he purchased land previously owned by Ridley in Pleasant Valley. He is likely the Johins who lived in Ohio Twp., Clermont Co., OH in the 1830 census. He was between 30 and 40. His wife was between 20 and 30. They had 2 sons under under age 5, and one from 5-10.

(C-218) There are two John Masts near each other in Ohio in tht half of the 19th century. Ours is the John who was taxed in 1816 in Montgomery County and was in the 1830 census for Butler Twp., Montgomery Co., Ohio and died there in 1863.

John was deeded 295 acres of land by his father Robert in 1755 and 265 more in 1759. He likely was the John Young who obtained 112 acres more in 1767 of land that was his fathers in Augusta Co., Virginia south of Whistle Creek. His fatd died in 1762. (CL-562) He and his brother Samuel and likely father Robert were appointed to work on building a road from Brown's bridge to the Glebe land in May of 1753. He had a son James and 3 daughters.

John was from Great Moresome, near Guisborough in N. Riding, Yorkshire, England. He emigrated from Yorkshire, England to Lurgan (Legacory), Co. Armagh, IRL before his son Thomas's birth in 1617. He is probably the John listed in Drumgorre 1664 Hearthmoney Rolls. (C-956, 1450) An ancestor of this John could be the John Calurd of Morsom, who willed his estate to wife, Margaret and son Thomas Calverd. This was written on Oct. 1562 and probated on May 10, 1565.

John was in the Burlington Co., Springfield Twp., NJ tax lists for 1773, as was brother Daniel and that he left the following will. (C-2292E, E) WILL OF JOHN COATE (transcribed by Charlotte Coats Siercks) Be it remembered that I John Cf the township of Springfield, County of Burlington and State of New Jersey. Being sick and weak of body, but of sound and disposing mind and memory, yet calling to mind the uncertainty of all sublunary enjoyments and that it is appointed for all men once to die, do make this my last will and testament. I give my soul into the hands of Almighty God who gave it to me as in the disposal of a being infinitely good and as to the worldly estate where with it hath pleased God to bless me my will is that it be disposed of in the following manner. First I give and bequeath unto my well beloved niece Hester Earle, wife of Caleb Earle my brown mare. Second I give and bequeath unto my beloved nephew Caleb Earle all the residue and remainder of my Estate both real and personal what ever and where ever the same may be, unto him the said Caleb Earle his heirs and assignees for ever, excepting only a certain Bond o obligation that I have against my Brother Daniel Coate which I hereby give him. Lastly I do hereby constitute and appoint my nephew Caleb Earle sole Executor of this my last will and testament. Sealed with my seal and dated this 25 day of April 1786. Affirmed 12 June 1786--Inventory of John Coate late of the Township of Springfield, County of Burlington, State of New Jersey. Purse and Apparel ..........................................6# 4S 6P Notes of Hand and Book accompts.............................66# 10S 4P Household Goods.............................................14# 10S 3P One Brown Mare..............................................20# -S -P _____________ 107# 5S 3P I believe this John to belong to the above info for the following reasons. 1) He had a brother Daniel who also lived in Burlington Co., NJ as an adult. 2) His brother Daniel was still alive when he wrote his will. 3) He's the only John in my extensive database with a brother named Daniel, who is the correct age and of the correct place to fit the John in this will. His brother Henry had a daughter Esther that is likely the Esther Coate, his niece, who married a Caleb Earle. Caleb Earle was the executor of his estate. He is also likely to be the John Coate who was one of several Quaker males who were given title to donated land on which to build a proper meeting house in 1775 in Burlington Co., New Jersey. The meeting house was erected on a knoll with a beautiful view at the intersection of roads leading to Juliustown and Pemberton called Arney's Mount. Other "trustees" were Jacob, Restore, Samuel and Francis Shinn, as well as William Lovett and James Smith.

John was listed as a prisoner for 24 hours in Lanchashier,1659, by Besse's "The Suffering of the Quakers," for which he paid 2s. He was fined 14 shillings for not taking the oath of loyalty to the King in 1664. He and his wife witnesn the close relatives column the marriage of James Wright and Susannah Croudson in that Monthly Meeting on the 19d 4m 1666. I do not yet know if they were related to the bride or the groom, but it is likely that it is a grandchild to them considering their age at the time. One of their daughters would have to have had a first marriage to a Wright or a Croudson for this to be true. His will names wife Margaret, sons Samuel (to whom he gave his house), John of Great Sankei (Sankey is in co. Lancashire, England) and Thomas, and daughters Elinor, (wife of Robert Vernon), Mary (wife of Thomas Barnes) and Elizabeth (wife of Randle Speakman). It was written in 1699 in Mobberley, England. (C-1073)

MINSHALL, John (I13377)

2632

John was living in Covington, Ohio during the War of 1812 according to his obituary. He and his wife were born in South Carolina according to their 1850 census record. One grandson stated he was born in North Carolina and according tor he was born in South Carolina. Of course, this confusion could have been because the part of North Carolina he was born in later became South Carolina in 1788. After his childhood the obituary states that he went into "Teaming" as profession and drove from his parents home to Charleston, South Carolina. This supports him being raised by Big John, as Big John's sons, Wright and James were also into "Teaming".

He also has one of 2 supposed decendants that have been tested for their DNA who is related to 3 other possible Big John descendants via sons William and James. The list of John's children came from one of his grandsons, John R. Coats in a handwritten document in Winchester, VA. By Sep. 5, 1822, John and Sally are living in Randolph Co., Indiana when they sold their land in Miami Co., Ohio to Benjamin Lehman. (C-2568)

John is living in Randolph Co., Indiana in the 1850 census on pg. 63, White River Twp. He was age 63, b. South Carolina. His wife was age 60, b. South Carolina. Children still living with them included Lewis age 21, Andrew age 16 and Dempsey, age 6, all born in Indiana. Living next door to him is son, Joseph Coats, age 23, b. Indiana, married to Esther, age 27, b. Ohio with 2 daughters.
On page 79 of this same census, son William Coats is listed, age 33, b. Ohio married to a Mary (age unreadable). On page 62, son Thomas W. Coats, age 42, b. Ohio with wife Mary age 43 and children. Son Gabrael is on page 64 at age 26, b. Indiana.

There is a remarkable newspaper article on a family reunion of this couple and almost all of their descendants that was dated Jun 22, 1859 in Randolph Co., Indiana. John and Sally were at the head of the table and listed as ages 71 and 70 at the time. All of their present family was sitting in order of their age of birth around them and named in this article. There is also another lovely article on a family reunion that took place sometime in the 1880's after all but Mary "Polly" had passed from this original family. Mary was 74 at the time. There were 180 family members present. It stated that John was a farmer by night and a Justice of the Peace by day, a man of "iron constitution". He and Sally had raised 12 children and lost 2 others at a young age. They were pioneers in Randolph Co., Indiana and oft encountered wild beasts and Indians in their long lives.

John was married four times to Margaret Thwaites, Margaret Hastings, Elizabeth Reade, and Anne York. He held the title, Lord of Studley and Hutton Conyers. It is unknown as to which child belonged to which mother, and his children mightnclude Joan, William or Peter. Peter isn't listed in Mary Reumah Mallory's work, and Joan and William might be the sons of Sampson instead.

(Sir John's mother was Margret, either Margret Twaytes or Margret Hastings. One of this descendants is Queen Elizabeth II.

John was the Duke of Lancaster, Earl of Derby, Lincoln and the Duke of Acquitaine. He was the 4th son of Edward III. He dominated power in the English government the latter part of his father's reign. His third wife was his long time mistress by whom he'd had four children previously named "Beauforts". The children received legitimate titles under King Richard II and became prominent in English history. John, through these children, is an ancestor of King Henry VIII. By marriage to his second wife, he was entitled to become King of Castile. Burke says he was the King of Castile and Leon. At any rate, in 1387 he gave up his claim to this title in favor of his daughter Catherine. His will is as follows: "I, John, son of the King of England, Duke of Lancaster, February 3d, 1397.

BEAUFORT, Sir John (I7642)

2643

John was the firstborn, but he is listed as an invalid or idiot in his father's will and Richard was therefore given the duties of the firstborn in the will. His birth date by some is conjectured to be the 1567 christening date belono a John, son of Richard. There is a Richard of Morley that has a son John in 1591 but that same Richard appears to have named a second son, John in 1598 which would have been too late for this John to be the father of Bartholomew. Instead of Richard, his father could be William, as William christened a son, John, on May 24, 1564 in Wilmslow also. (C-204)

The siblings I have listed for him are taken from similar christening dates to children of the Richard of that time period. (C-204)

He is listed as John of Houghe in his son, Bartholomew's christening record in 1610 at Wilmslow Parish, Cheshire, England. Hough is a village currently on the south side of Wilmslow and 3 or 4 miles from Mobberley. It is the only christening record that is available for John of Houghe's children in the Wilmslow Parish Records. (C-204)

Either one of these Johns might be the one who had a son John out of wedlock. A John's burial record lists him as the bastard son of John Coppock, b. Sep 1593 in the Mobberly Parish records. He was born and buried on the same day. (E)

COPPOCK, John * (I8361)

2644

John was the High Sheriff of Derbyshire in 1688. (C-2129)

BORROWE, John (I10007)

2645

John was willed 5 lbs. by his stepfather, Aaron Coppock, on 10/3/1726 being called a "son-in-law" in the will. Son-in-law in this case meant stepson. John and Mary his wife witnessed the marriage of his step-brother, John Coppock toet Coulson in 1731. John and Mary were listed as the parents of William White when he married Sarah Pugh in 1743. John and Mary were from East Nottingham Twp., Chester Co., PA at the time. (C-1302)

WHITE, John (I13769)

2646

John was Williams' first born son. He had the same name as a cousin born the day after him in Newberry, SC who was the son of Marmaduke and Mary Coate.

COATE, John (I14808)

2647

John Whilton Coppock died in 1636 according to Gary Hawley, but the 1636 death date could apply to at least 3 different John's in that time period. Further proof is needed to narrow it to John Whilton Coppock.

WHILTON, John (I233)

2648

John William was given the nickname of Pedro by Mexican workers and he was called Peter or Pete for short. His boss and then partner, Hugh J. Glenn was murdered a few days after he married his daughter Ella. Hugh Glenn left him a greatf debt. He and his wife Ella divorced in 1891. He was a millionaire. His life ended prematurely when he was shot in the back by a "nester" in 1897. (CL-509, E) The ranch hand that killed him was Ed Oliver. He claimed self defense and although there were witnesses who said French was unarmed, somehow Ed was acquitted of murder. There was a rumor that some ranchers and business men conspired to have him killed. After his death, his heirs basically frittered away all his money and his estate was liquidated to pay for his debts.

FRENCH, John William (I6050)

2649

John witnessed the marriage of his step-brother through his wife's side, John Coppock in 1731 and is listed in the relatives column. His wife, if still living, did not attend.

ROBINSON, John (I16095)

2650

John would be the youngest son in the 1820 census, listed at age 10 to 16, giving him a birth range of 1804 to 1810. If he is the John Clark who shows up for the first time in the 1840 census by name, he was age 40-50. His wife was oe 20-30 and they had one daughter between age 5 and 10. That indicates that he probably didn't marry until 1830 or after. (CL-335, 337) There is a John B. who married Polly McDonald on Jun 26, 1821 in Cabell Co., VA that might account for our John or the John in the 1840 census.... though with the number of children they have, it's more likely that they are 2 different Johns or that this is his 2nd wife.

My mother has a small match to 2 different descendants of this John Clark, 4.8 cM's on chrome 1 from 118-145 and on chrome 9 from 116-118 at Gedmatch indicating that this John Clark could be a step brother to our William D. Clark as surmised.

CLARK, John James (I8227)
