| 2651 | John Young died shortly before 17 March 1747, the date of his estate appraisal. Bits and pieces of the estate documents were abstracted in Chalkley's I and III. They show that John's brother, James Young, was granted administration of John's estate on 17 June 1747. As far as I can tell, James Young of Whistle Creek was the only James Young in Augusta Co. of the same generation as John was. I have not found any records for a mysterious "second" James Young in the area during the 1740s. There are no deeds, no road orders and no court records. We know from the estate records that John died intestate -- without a will -- because James Young was the court appointed administrator of the estate rather than the executor of a will. We also know that John died without descendants because his brother James was referred to as "his nearest heir." By law, a brother could only be an heir if the deceased had no living descendants. At a minimum, this means that John Young who died in 1747 was not John Young who married Annie Houston in Ireland and left a number of sons. One rather clumsy abstract in Chalkley's has led Young researchers to say that both John Young and James Young were dead before 17 March 1747, however that is not the case. Records clearly show that John's brother James was granted administration of the estate on 17 June 1747 and that he handled the estate until its close in March 1749. Robert Young was a surety for James Young as administrator and Hugh Young was mentioned in the 1749 estate distribution. See the following records: *Chalkley's I, page 431: "Young's appraisement. James Young and John Young, deceased. 17th March, 1747." [Original Petitions And Papers Filed in the County Court. 1745-1748] *Chalkley's III , page 8: Will Book 1 "Page 76.'97 17th March, 1747. John Young's appraisement."*Chalkley's I, page 29: "June 17, 1747 Order Book No. I. (216) Administration upon John Young granted to James Young (his brother.)" *Chalkley's I, page 431: "James Young's petition to administer on estate of John Young, his brother and nearest heir, 17th June, 1747." [From Original Petitions And Papers Filed in the County Court. 1745-1748] *Chalkley's III, page 7: Will Book 1, "Page 46.'97 17th June, 1747. James Young (I) qualifies administrator of John Young, with sureties Partt Martin, Robert Young."*Chalkley's III, page 33: Will Book 2 "Page 32.'97 25th March, 1749. John Young's estate, Dr.[distribution] to James C. Young, administrator: To funeral charges, \'a3 4. To cash, by Henry Downs, Capt. Danl. McAnare. Capt. John Brown, Hugh Young, Robt. Scott, Robt. Bovd, John Davis." Even though we have not seen the land record itself, we know from a variety of records that John Young had land in the Beverley Patent on Back Creek. The question is, what happened to the land after John's death? I believe the land was divided among his heirs-at-law, in other words, his brothers James, Robert, and Hugh Young. This would explain why they all acquired adjoining land on Back Creek on 27/28 February 1749 -- shortly before the final accounting in John Young's estate. In fact, the deed to Robert Young actually refers to the land as "part of John Young's land in Beverley Manor on Back Creek." *Chalkley's III, Page 282: Deed Book 2 Page 638.--27th February, 1749. Same [William Beverly] to Robert Young, planter (farmer) part of John Young's land in Beverley Manor (234 acres) on Back Creek. Corner to Hugh Young and John Trimble; corner William McPheeters; corner James Young. Teste: Thomas Stewart and Charles Dalhouse. The abstracted deeds to James and Hugh Young do not contain the same explicit language about John Young's land, but that language may be in the original deeds. *Chalkley's III, page 281: Deed Book 2 Page 547.'97 28th February, 1749. Same [William Beverley] to Hugh Young, farmer, 200 acres in Beverley Manor, joining his former survey. Pat. Martin's line. Corner Pickin's old place; William McClintock's line. Teste: John Brown. *Chalkley's III, page 283: Deed Book 2, Page 645.'97 28th February, 1749. Same [William Beverley] to James Young, planter, 436 acres in Beverley Manor on Back Creek. Corner Robert Young; McFeeter's line; corner Andrew Pickens; corner Robert Campbell; corner Patrick Martin. Teste: John Wilson, John Gay. Although it seems odd that William Beverley was the grantor on the deeds if the land actually belonged to John Young, there are several other deeds for the same period that do the same thing. One involves the land in the estate of Patrick Cook, the husband of Jane Young Cook, the probable sister of John, James, Hugh and Robert Young: *Chalkley's III, page 284: Deed Book 2, Page 686.'97 1st March, 1749. Same [William Beverley] to Jean [Jane] Cook, widow, and John and Mary Cook, minors (the whole contains 802 acres), 2/3 of 2 tracts in one place, and to John Cok the remainder of the other third sold to Jane Cook, widow, during her life, according to will of Patrick Cook, her late husband. 1748, in Augusta'97 Nathan Lusk's line; John McCutchin's line. Teste: James Lockhart, Robt. Young. ---One likely explanation is that John Young and Patrick Cook (et al.) had not paid off the land when they died and that money was still owed to William Beverley. As a result, the heirs/beneficiaries had to pay off what was due on the land to get clear title from Beverley." (end of quoted email from Janice McAlpine) The last mention of John Young we have in the records is at the end of this 1802 record in court testimony in Chaukley, VII. *"Sept 1802, McPheeters vs. Moffett--Involves land conveyed to Beverley to Crockett, 26th February, 1740. Copy of deed. Deed, Robert Crockett and Margaret to William McPheeters, 23d November, 1743. Deed Robert Crockett and wife, same. William McPheeters, demandant, is son of above William McPheeters. Deposition James McClery, taken in Fayette County, Kentucky, third Monday June, 1798: In the Spring of 1742 he settled in Augusta County within 3 miles of lands in dispute. He lived in Augusta until October, 1785. Deposition before Samuel Blair, J. P., J. Bell, Elij Poage, George Trotter. John Brownlee deposes in Augusta, 3d July, 1798, that he has lived where he now lives since 1st November, 1740; he has always been a member of that society, and is nearly related to John Moffett, the defendant. John Tate also deposes that he has lived where he now lives for 53 years in October last, and had been acquainted with the lands for two years before he came to live in the neighborhood. Captain Samuel McPheeters deposes at same time that he has lived in and near where he now lives since 1741. Mathew Wilson deposes at same time that he has lived near where he now lives 60 years. John Young lived on the plantation 55 years ago and upwards." (Fifty-five years ago would have been 1747.) His death date of 1747 is usually listed as his father's death date and will instead. This is absolutely incorrect as this John Jr., son of John and Annie Houston Young, died in 1747 without having any surviving children in his will. John Jr. Young therefore, is NOT the John of Naked Creek, Virginia either. His estate went to his brothers, James, Robert, Hugh and likely sister, Jane Cooke's husband, Patrick. | YOUNG, John (I620)
|
| 2652 | John's birth date is estimated at aft 1796 from his father's will in which he is listed as a minor. He is still listed as under age 21 in an 1818 Equity court record. Only one of his brothers wasn't listed as a minor in the 1817 adminisn and that was Jehu, who has a birth date of 1802. (C-1600) He might be the John Jr. listed in the census records as living in Newberry, SC in 1820 and 1830. I do not personally know if he moved north in the early 1800s. In 1830 though, this John is living near many families with the surname of Pitts (like his mother's maiden name.) If he was this John, he and his wife were born after 1790. They had at least 2 daughters and one son. (C-1573) | COATE, John (I522)
|
| 2653 | John's descendants stayed in England. One of them, Thomas Roby, b.in 1598, who held office under Henrietta Marie, Queen of Charles I. (C-2131) | ROBY, John (I1179)
|
| 2654 | John's land is on the North and South sides of Bush River. His birth date is estimated to be between 1755 and 1780. (C-1996) | COLE, John (Jr.) (I16704)
|
| 2655 | John's parents in CD-102, were listed as Edward and Ann Sutton Bagley instead. John, age 27, Roland Bingham, Richard Bagly and John Baker, yeoman, were indicted for assaulting Lawrence White in Dudley. An arrest warrent/writ dated, 1599 was sent to the sheriff to arrest the men listed in the first indictment above, plus others. A second arrest was issued on Jan. 13, 1601. Nothing further on these arrests are in the court documents. In a different court testimony in 1631, John stated that he had lived at Old Park, Sedgely, from 1603 where he kept deer for Lord Dudley. In 1611, Lord Dudley granted him, his head deerkeeper, the ancient lodge and land in Old Park for his living quarters. By 1620, John was listed as Gentleman, age 46, in a list of Chancery depositions. The 1631 court case revolved around a suit by Walter Devereux against Lord Dudley for a large sum of debt. John Bagley was included in the efforts of Lord Dudley to defeat Devereux's claim for payment. John testified that he had lived at Old Park for 28 years. Being thrown out would leave him without livelihood. His wife was dead by the time of these proceedings. The court apparently allowed him to stay at Old Park. By a 1637/8 court case that John brought against Thomas Russell and others, John was again only listed as a yeoman. John was appointed to administer the will of his brother George Bagley on Mar. 27, 1647. In June of 1647, John Bagley, yeoman , stated in court that Lord Dudley granted him a thousand year lease in Sedgley three years before. His own will is dated 1648.

His first marriage to Margary about 1630 resulted in 6 children, before Margery's death in 1645. She was buried at Sedgley on 23 March 1644-5. He re-married to Isabella Crosse at Sedgley on 6 May 1649 at Sedgley. There would appear to be no children from this marriage. He died in 1685. See PROB 11/380 Image ref: 573/17366 will of Dudley Bagley of Sedgley.3 Samuell Bagley - Samuel Bagley, son of John Bagley. Baptised at St Edmund, Dudley on 6 February 1613.

| 2656 | John's widow was taxed on 250 acres of land in Warrington in 1779. They had 6 children. (C-636) | UNDERWOOD, John (I12130)
|
| 2657 | John's wife's name is very much theory, based upon original conjecture by Mary Helen Pemberton. She is the one who surmised that the wife's name was Susan Brock, d. of Elias Brock and Ann Hollingsworth. We suspect that her first name was accurate, as multiple grandchildren were named Susan. We cannot find John Sr anywhere after the 1830 Census. However, there is a Susana Coats living in Newton Twp., Miami Co., Ohio in the 1840 census at age 50-60 and listed as the head of household that could account for her. These are the ages of members of the household that belonged to her. Herself, 2 males from 15-20 and 2 females from 10-15. It would have to be grandchildren to account for the ages of people on the farm when the census was taken.</line><line /><line>We are now certain her surname is Brock because of 1 triangulation descendants of her parents (Elias and Ann Hollingsworth Coats) have to Phil Pearson, a 2nd triangulation she has to the ancestor of Ann Hollingsworth named Thomas Hollingsworth with this same Phil Pearson plus 2 other Brock triangulations to a descendant of a Heinrich Brock b. 1725 of Shenendoah Co., VA. </line><line /><line /><line /> | BROCK, Susana (I13924)

| 2658 | John, the youngest son of Aaron Coppock, was willed his father's plantation of abt. 100 acres when he wrote his will on the 10th mo, 3rd day of 1726. This he received prior to his marriage to Margaret Coulson. John is listed as thef Aaron Coppock of East Nottingham, Chester Province, PA, deceased when he marries Margaret Coulson on the 16th day, first month of 1731. Witnesses in the relatives column in order of signature are: Miriam Coppock (his mother) Tho. Coulson (her brother), Martha Coulson (her sister-in-law), Jn. White (his step-brother), Mary White (his step-brother's wife), Joel Bailey (his Uncle, brother-in-law to his mother, Miriam Short), Lydia Gregg (his sister), Miriam Jones (his sister), Eliz. Delaney (possibly his step-sister, formerly Eliz. White), Marg. Richard, Sarah Wily, Sarah Powell, David Gregg (his likely brother-in-law), John Robinson (husband to his step-sister, Martha Coppock), and William Wily. I've noted the ones whose relationship I understand. The mystery relatives could be important clues as to the rest of the makeup of this family. (C-2474) He sells land on which he was living on Feb 7, 1768 to Francis Armstrong. John is listed "of the township of Little Britain in the county of Lancaster, Pennsylvania". This deed also says that he obtained what was 3 parcels of land all by 1750. John in listed as the father of Joseph when he marries Jane Wilson in Little Britain MM, PA in 1769. He was again listed as being from Little Britain, Lancaster Co., the Province of PA in this marriage record. (C-2298b) John's wife is listed as the daughter of Joseph and Margaret of Germantown, Philadelphia, PA when he and Margaret married. She was born between 1705 and 1708. Her age at death was listed as 83 years in the Little Britain MM, PA Quaker records which occurred in 1788. Both John and Margaret's death dates are listed in Little Britain MM, PA records where their children had been born. Other sources have listed John's will and death place as Maryland, so this makes the death place for he or his wife in question as they died within about a year of each other. Did they occur in Little Britain Twp., Lancaster, PA or in Mongouise, (Cecil), MD? In either case, both places were just over the border from each other. Dan Treadway explains the problem this way: " The place where John Coppock and his father Aaron settled in what is now Maryland is known as the Nottingham Lots. These lots were in an area that the British Crown had granted both to Maryland and to Pennsylvania. The folks who moved to Nottingham from Pennsylvania thought they were moving to Pennsylvania, and received their grants from Penn. The boundary was only settled in the mid-18th century when surveyors Mason and Dixon drew their famous line. That line divided the Nottingham settlement, with some lots lying in Maryland and some in Pennsylvania." John and Margaret sometimes are listed with a daughter Ellen, but this is a mix-up with his daughter-in-law, Ellen Sidwell, who was married to his son, Samuel. (C-1437) This John and Margaret were the great-great grandparents of Edwin and Barclay Coppock. They were two of John Brown's famous Harper's Ferry Raiders. Even though Quakers, they were completely dedicated to the cause of freeing the slaves. They became acquainted with John Brown during John's stay in Springdale, Iowa and wished to join his cause. After Harper's Ferry, Edwin was captured and was hung like all the other captured members of this party. Barclay escaped only to be killed shortly after joining the Civil War a year and a half later. John's will is quoted as follows: " Whereas I the Subscriber being Ancient and (conscious) dering the uncertainty of my time here being now in perfect mind and memory do make This my last Will and Testament and dipose of What the Lord hath blest me with in my outward Substance in manner following 1st my Will is that my Body be decently buried & my funeral Charges paid & also my debts paid agreeable to an Article of Agreement bearing date the 21st of the 9 mo 1777 out of my Personal Estate. 2nd my Will is and I give bequeath to my son John Coppock five Shillings and a book called Scrivets (?)

(C-385) He and his brother Wesley founded the Ohio Lightning Rod Co. in West Milton, Ohio as well as invented the circuit system of lightning rods that gained worldwide usage. In the 1870 census for Union Twp., Miami Co, Ohio, he is listed as being employed in putting up lightning rods.

He might have had a brother, William, who supposedly bought land in what became Beaver Co., Pennsylvania by 1786. However, he's not in any of the Beaver Co., PA records because he died before it became that county by name.

| 2662 | Jonathan Coates owned a store in Charlestown, Pennsylvania which was mentioned in the Philadelphia Gazette when a road was being split into 2 roads near his home articled on Aug. 17, 1758. Jonathan Coates of Charlestown, yeoman, wifthe Jane deeded land to Charles Norris of Philadelphia to help pay off a debt they had to him. The land was in Charlestown bounded by French Creek. Two of it's previous owners had been Moses Coates, Jr. and Aaron Coates. (C-2139) Jonathan was a witness to the will of John Christie Tredyffrin on Dec. 10, 1762. There is the possibility that he is a relative of John Christie's wife, Sarah or to John himself, though he could just also have been a family friend. (C-1789) "HISTORY OF CHESTER COUNTY PENNSYLVANIA" , by Futhey and Cope stated "The New Holland and Ephrata Post will set off, beginning April 24, 1766, from the house of Joseph Vandegriff, Cross Keys, 3d & Chestnut St, Phila. every Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock and deliver newspapers and letters on that day. At the Gulph Tavern, at the sign of the King of Prussia, at the Valley Forge, at the Bull Tavern, at Mr Jonathan Coates's in Charlestown, at Mr George Christman's in Pikeland, at Mr Robert Ralston's and at Mr David Thomas's in Vincent twp. Letters delivered for 4 pence each - small errands performed for 6 pence each; horses taken up and down." There is a series of letters written to Jonathan that were never picked up in the post office of Charles Town, PA dated Aug 5, 1756, Jan 3, 1760, and in the Chester Co. P.O. on Apr 7, 1757, Jan 12, 1758 , July 31, 1760 and Jan 13, 1765. This Jonathan was likely the commissioner of that name that was one of many appointed to make the River Schylkill navigable. It was a large project that was supported with subscriptions (taxes) in that region and was written up in great detail on Mar 19, 1761 in the PA Gazette. (C-1681) He is likely the witness in the following will dated 1762.

(C-1670, 1783) There is a Jonathan Coates who who received a patent for 192 acres in York Co., PA in 1770 that might apply to this Jonathan or another Jonathan of similar peerage also living in Pennsylvania (PA Patent Index) He might be the Jonathan who married Jane Stinson on Nov. 7, 1771 in the Pennsylvania Archives Series. He might be the Jonathan who was on the tax lists for Great Egg Harbor Twp., Burlington Co, NJ in Aug. 1773 (C-2292E) He and his family are listed mulitple times in the Kennett Monthly Meeting records and were obviously Quakers. His marriage and the births of his children are recorded in the Uwchlan Monthly Meeting, Chester Co., Pennsylvania. They received certificates of transfer to the Kennett Monthly Meeting on Jun 5, 1783 with their minor children from Susanna to Elizabeth listed. Kennett was also in Chester Co., Pennsylvania. All but Jonathan Jr. of their older children were listed as moving to Kennett also in seperate statements. Jonathan and his wife Jane with children: Grace, Isaac, Jane and Elizabeth were granted a certificate of removal to Gunpowder MM from Kennett Monthly Meeting in Chester Co., PA on Aug 11, 1789.

| 2663 | Jonathan Danner and Elizabeth grew up in York Co., PA and lived in Hanover which is 18 miles sw of York which is in York Co., PA in 1800. By profession at that point, he made cigars and sold them for one copper penny apiece. (CL-514E)e 1800 York Co., PA census, he and his wife were between the ages of 26 and 45. They had a son and daughter under the age of 10 at that point in time. This doesn't quite fit with their actual children, from Gallia Co. census records, it is likely that they have 2 sons and 2 daughters by that point in time -- unless the older ones were living with a relative at that time. There also would have been a new baby in the house if we have Elizabeth's birthday correct. In any case, he is listed as John, the tobacconist on the Heidleberg Twp., York Co., tax lists from 1806-1817. (CL-514) History of Gallia County, Perry Twp. Ohio, H.H. Hardesty & Co., Publishers, 1882 (p. XXIII): "The following were among the earliest settlers of the township: Alexander Boggs, Abraham Beaver, John Smith (1812); Robert Armstrong (1811); Elijah Carter, Jacob Prose (1811); Samuel Allison, Jacob Roadamour, Stephen Gates, John Prose, (1811); Leonard Weis, Jonathan Danner, Michael Danner, James Porter, Paul Prose (father to Jacob and John), Joshua Riley (1810); Daniel Prose, George Smith and John Campbell." (Ancestors of Ruth Lucille Bryan at Family Treemaker.com) Jonathan Danner who lived in Perry Twp, Gallia Co., Ohio in the 1820 census, had many children, two the appropriate age to be our Jacob, and was himself over 45 years of age. It appears that his wife had died by the 1820 census due to the fact that the oldest female in the home was under age 26. One of his probable sons was named Solomon and lived next to him in the 1830 census in Perry Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio Jonathan was between 60 and 70 years of age at that time. He had 2 daughters between the ages of 15 and 19, and one between 30 and 40 plus a son between 20 and 30 living with him at the time. (CL-446) | DANNER, Jonathan * (I13767)
|
| 2664 | Jonathan was the only brother under six feet in size in his family. He was called "the Peacemaker", unusual for the strongest male family in Gallia County. He and the Glenns were early pioneers of Vinton, Ohio. He became a Presbyteriane of the Glenns. The Adney's had been a Quaker sect when immigrating to this country. (CL-455, 150, 474) Jonathan and his wife are remembered by his nephews and nieces as "wonderful persons". When a child, he played with Indians. His good friend was "cousin Johnny" a "tame" Indian who sadly met his death because of it. He could remember a story and tell it without leaving anything out after just one reading. He could stay up half the night telling stories and be up long before the Whipperwill sang. He liked to work and could just as easily be in the fields at night. He was one of the most respected and influential men in Huntington Township. He and his wife had eleven children. Six sons and three daughters grew to adulthood. (CL-376, 509) Jonathan was age 66 yrs, 8 months and 9 days according to his cemetery stone. (CL-455) His likely mother was buried next to him along with his wife. Her name was Barbara Adney, wife of John, who died on Mar. 26, 1855 at age 73 years. | ADNEY, Jonathan (I15970)
|
| 2665 | Jonathan, Jr. attended Bradford Monthly Meeting on Jun 6, 1782 from the Uwchlan Monthly Meeting in Chester Co., Pennsylvania He would have been all of 18 years of age at the time. Jonathan, Jr. was granted a certificate to Gunpowdery Meeting from Kennett Monthly Meeting in Chester Co., PA on Jun. 11, 1789. (C-2140, 2153) He was also known as John Coates in some sources. He is likely to be the Jonathan Coates who married Jane Stinson on Nov 7, 1771 in Pennsylvania Of course, this marriage could be a second marriage for his father instead. (C-1677) He could also be the Captain of an unnamed ship that is mentioned in the PA Gazette in the late 1700's. (C-1771) | COATES, Jonathan (I885)

| 2668 | Joseph and Henry Large were among the earliest settlers in Buckingham Twp, Bucks Co., Pennsylvania. He was likely the Joseph Large who was a resident of Amesbury, Massachusetts, took an oath of allegiance in Dec. of 1677, was a membertraining band" in 1680, and a soldier ab. 1689 according to a history of same. Joseph died previous to his daughter, Elizabeth Large's marriage, in 1714 as he is listed as the deceased father. Witnesses at Elizabeth's wedding included a Joseph, John, Jacob, Daniel and Sarah Large. It is not known what relationship all these family members had to each other. (C-257) Children I've listed for Joseph are all claimed to be the son of Joseph in Hinshaw. There are other unclaimed children that might belong to this Joseph or his relative, Henry Large. They include a Richard, Hester, John, and Jacob, Joseph, and Daniel Large. | LARGE, Joseph (I16072)
|
| 2669 | Joseph and his family got a certificate to Miami Co., Ohio from Bush River MM, SC on Aug. 30, 1806. Joseph was the founder of the West Milton, Ohio according to that town's Sesquicetenial Celebration. He purchased the land in section 21e purpose of creating a village. He divided it into 2 main streets and 62 lots which he sold to it's earliest members. He built the 2nd mill on Stillwater and was an industrious Quaker. He was such an astute business man among ones that were called "Quaker Aristocrats" about the time they were disowned according to a adendum to the "Annals of Newberry."

|
| 2671 | Joseph and Lydia had a daughter named Mary in 1825 in Miami Co, Ohio. They are living next to his father in the 1827 and 1835 tax lists for Union Twp., Miami Co., Ohio. There is a Joseph Coats in the 1840 census for Warren Co., TN thats to be checked to see if it might apply to this Joseph. He and his wife are living with William and Delilah Jones in the 1850 census and that census says he and his wife were born in North Carolina which does not match other records. (C-2242) | COATE, Joseph Coppock (I13623)
|
| 2672 | Joseph and Mary and 14 children according to Savage between the years 1668 and 1689. Six of them died as infants or children. Both sons named John were among these. They did name a son Johathan who lived into adulthood. Joseph's familyed their name Joy. (C-809, 872) | JOY, Ensign Joseph (I12955)
|
| 2673 | Joseph and Sarah had 12 children over a period of many years. Their son, Thomas, was next to their youngest child. (C-1343) | RICH, Joseph Jr. (I13905)
|
| 2674 | Joseph and Sarah had six daughters. They married in Montgomery county. They lived in Monroe Twp., Miami Co., OH in the 1830 census. (C-1025) Family tradition from Irene Hall Pederson, a great granddaughter of Joseph and Sarah states thle they were still young, they moved to Mercer Co., Ohio from Miami Co., Ohio. On route, they were crossing the ice covered St. Mary's River at Shane's Crossing (Now Rockford). Sarah drove her sled across with the girls and Joseph rode his horse. The ice broke under Joseph. He drowned and was not found for four days. This probably would have been a story told to Irene by her grandmother, Sarah Harp Alexander, who was a daughter crossing the ice in this story. (C-714) | HARP, Joseph (I16134)
|
| 2675 | Joseph apparently had a twin sister named Sarah. Joseph Wells was living in Anne Arundel Co., MD. on Dec. 8, 1726. He paid taxes on the Mattapony Hundred of Prince George's Co. (now Frederick Co., MD). He had moved to the Monocacy Valleyst Prince George's Co. by 1742. His name is on a petition that sought the establishment of All Saints Parish from Prince George's Co in 1742. He bought land named "Boyling Springs", which was forty acres surveyed June 12, 1743. In November of that year, he was made constable of the Monocacy Hundred. He had 2 known wives and possibly 3. Rachel is the wife in question. She is only listed in one place as the mother of his daughter Rachel. There is a fairly strong theory out there that Rachel was simply a repetitive error on the person in the Quaker records later listing her as Rachel's mother in a Quaker record written after Joseph had become a Quaker. His wife Margaret was received in membership on 11/29/1745 and he on 2/29/1746. They removed to North Carolina around 1750 after they sold "Boyling Spring", on Tuscorrah Creek near the mouth of the Monquescy. His certificate of removal to Carver's Creek MM, Bladen, NC was dated Jun 25, 1750. He and his wife were charter members of Cane Creek Monthly Meeting that was estabalished Oct. 7, 1751. Joseph gave his son Joseph 269 acres of land in Orange County, North Carolina on June 13, 1752. He sold another 137.5 acres of land to John Marshall in Sept. 1752. In that same year, Margaret stops appearing in Quaker Records when her husband Joseph and some children are in it. This could suggest that she had passed on in 1752 or earlier.

| 2677 | Joseph Coppock, son of John Coppock of Little Brittain Twp., Lancaster Co. PA married Jane Wilson, daughter of John Wilson of the Twp. of East Marlborough, Chester Co., PA according to their Quaker marriage record. The marriage recordy stated that it took place on the 4th day, 5th month, 1769. Joseph left the East Nottingham MM, Chester Co., PA (also in Maryland) area on certificate dated Dec. 26, 1772 and was received in the Bush River MM, Newberry Co. area on April 30, 1774. He and his children are all listed in Medlin's, [UL:Quaker Familes:UL]. He purchased land on Oct. 29, 1784 from John Ridgdel in Newberry. He is listed as an early businessman in Summer's "Newberry Co., SC Historical and Genealogical" book. (C-2774) A Joseph Cupock is listed in the 1790 South Carolina Census, Newberry Co., 96th district, pg. 77 with 4 males age 16 & older, 3 males under age 16 and 4 females. This record probably applies to the above Joseph Coppock. He deeded land to (son or brother) Thomas on Mar. 14, 1794 in Newberry Co., South Carolina. (C-909) He sold land to Frederick Burtz on Sept. 17, 1797 in Newberry. Then Thomas Coppock sold Joseph land in the same county on November 7, 1797. (C-908) He was not listed in the 1800 census. He was possibly living with son, John as John's household lists a male over 45 as well as one from age 16-26. (C-219) His will is as follows. *Coppock, Joseph, 11th day, 10th month, 1799 Will. "Where as I Joseph Coppock of Newberry County and State of South Carolina being Weak in Body but of Sound Mind and Memory Thanks be to God and Calling to mind that it is apointed unto Men onse to See, for Divers Causes and Considerations one herunto moving I do Hereby Ordain This My Last Will and Testement first I Recommend My Soul into The Hands of Almighty God Who gave it and after My Deceas my body to be Decently Buryed in a Christian Like Manner at the Discretion of my Executors and as Conserning my Wordly Estate Which it Hath Pleased god to ( ) me Doth I give Will and Bequeathe to My Beloved Wife Jane Coppock in the following manner That is to Say I give Her My House and Plantation and all the Movable Property that is mine at my Decease to Have The full (Authority) of for The benefit of Her own Support and to (the) ( ) The younger children unto be Wholy at & or Discresion and benefit until The youngest Child Comes to the age of Twenty one Namely ( ), Then it is my Desire That the (Farm) be Equally Divided amongst all my Children and That My beloved Wife Jane Coppock Have the full Privilege of the House Where I now Live during her Life and The one Third of the Land for her Support and also all the Personable Property That may be at that time to be Left Wholy to her Disposal as She may Think best that is to say When the youngest Child Comes of age, and at her Decease Her Third of the Land and all The Rest of the Property to be Equally divided amongst the children, and as to my Children That are of age and gon to them ( ) Namely my Son John my Son Thomas my Son Benjamin my Son Joseph Coppock and my Daughter Elizabeth Cote(s) Have all Received Different amounts Which is my Desire may be Taken out of their Parts at the ( ) and as to my other Children Nameley My Daughter Margarett my Daughter Jane My Son Samuel my Son William and my son Jesse it is my Desire that When they are married or of age may Receive Eaquil With the others of it Can be Shared but to be Left intirely at the Descresion of my beloved Wife as she may Think best at that time and further it is my desire that my beloved Wife Jane Coppock and my Son John Coppock and my Son Thomas Coppock to be my Executors of this my will and Testament & is annuling all other Wills by me heretomade and Signed, further it is my Desire that Joseph and Benjamin may have the Privilege of Keeping the Land and to Settle With the Others at such time as ( ) ( ) the ( ) agree amongst themselves, and Lastly I (Seal) ( ) ( ) to be my Last Will and Testament in Witness Whereof I have hereunto set my hand and Seal this 11 Day of The Tenth Month called October in the year of our Lord one Thousand Seven Hundred and Ninety Nine and Signed in the Presents of Jacob ( ), Samuel Coate, (Matthew Coppock).

|
| 2678 | Joseph had a certificate to Wateree M.M. SC in 1762, probably from the Cane Creek MM and ROCG to Bush River, SC in 1776. He was disowned for reasons unknown on 1774,8,27 by Bush River MM. His wife is said to have been Charity Wells, buts is true he would have married his Step-Aunt. (C-628,646,724) Joseph Wright is likely the Joseph Wright who owned land next to brothers William and John on Bush Creek, Berkley Co., SC by Oct. 16, 1770. (C-1412) Bron lists his death date as Jan. 8, 1794, in Bush River, Newberry, SC though I have also seen it listed as 1789 instead. There is a Joseph Wright whose estate was probated in 1794 in Newberry. It is in will book A, p. 244. He names a Charity Wright in it as administrator. W.A.'s are listed as James Patty, Daniel Parkins, Philemon Waters, and Mark Smith. Appraised items included farm animals, carpenter and turners tools, cotton wheel, books, kitchenware, farm tools and beds. (C-1991, 2082) | WRIGHT, Joseph (I12292)
|
| 2679 | Joseph Irwin who wrote his will in 1866 and died in 1870 in Chester Co., PA appears to have named his niece, Phebe Ann Coates and her husband Joseph R. Coates in his will. I am not currently certain if her maiden name was Irwin after oneseph's siblings or a child of one of his two wive's siblings. | UNKNOWN, Phebe Ann (I7654)
|
| 2680 | Joseph is a brother to Benjamin in the 1841 census. In the 1851 census, Joseph is age 20, and was a grocer by trade, not a coal miner like his father. Like brother Benjamin, he also later became an Iron Dealer and had a nephew Albert M, age 11, visiting him in the 1871 census. Albert Dimmack is a name picked up in our side of the family. He and his wife also had niece Martha Bunn visiting them, age 7. If memory serves, the Civil Parish of Dudley was in parts of Staffordshire and Worcestershire, England where Joseph was born. According to the 1841 census, he was Born in Staffordshire and in later census records his birthplace is listed as Worcester. I expect the later to be true as the 1841 census only listed a checkmark if they were born in the current county of Staffordshire. The census taker simply checkmarked the whole family at that point in time. The 1881 census does give support to another theory. An Ann Dimmack, head of household, who was born in 1829 in Quinton, Worcestershire, England where Joseph Dimmack lived in the 1871 census with his wife, has a servant, a gardener and 2 nephews living with her. One of them is my Alfred, b. abt 1848 in Dudley, Worcestershire, England. He was listed as married and a Dairy farmer at the time. Another nephew is also helping her on her farm. His name is Albert Dimmack, b. abt 1861 in Birkenhead, Cheshire, England. He might be Mathias Dimmack's son Albert who was born in 1860 but in a different place or he could be a brother to my Alfred and was simply born after the 1861 census. It would mean that my Dimmack family moved right after the census to Birkenhead, Cheshire, England. | DIMMACK, Joseph (I7559)

| 2681 | Joseph likely died young. He was not in then 1861, 1871 or 1881 census for this family. | STEVENS, Joseph (I1978)

|
| 2683 | Joseph moved to SC with two young sons, as a widower, sometime before June of 1768. He and his brother Isaac are in the 1779 Bush River Monthly Meeting minutes. He might be the Joseph Hollingsworth in Hinshaw's Quaker encyclopedia that gertificate to Cane Creek MM on 7/6/1784 from Wrightsborough Monthly Meeting in South Carolina. (C-95, 1991) | HOLLINGSWORTH, Joseph (I12074)
|
| 2684 | Joseph Parish was the bondsman for Rebecca Parish when she married James Calhoun in 1822. This could be her brother Joseph who is verified by census records to live in Guilford in 1830 or possibly their father who was not in the census for Guilford in 1820 or 1830. | PARISH, Rebecca Jane (I11187)
|
| 2685 | Joseph was a barrel maker or cooper by trade. He appears as a witness in deeds in Cecil Co., MD in 1711 and 1721. He likely moved with nephew Abraham Hollingsworth and Isaac Parkins to Opeckan, Virginia about 1729. He left young childreis death in 1738 who were cared for by this Isaac Parkins. (C-956) | HOLLINGSWORTH, Joseph (I12047)
|
| 2686 | Joseph was a weaver in Dorchester at the time of his marriage to Hannah. He and his wife had moved to Delaware Co, Concord Friends Meeting in Pennsylvania by Feb. 10, 1695-6 as their certificate of removal is filed on that date. He wasd the partriarch of his family who died on his Birmingham Plantation by Jay researcher, Denise Bond. (C-874) | GILPIN, Joseph (I13634)
|
| 2687 | Joseph was a witness to the marriage of John Hutton and Ann Harry, d. of Evan Harry, deSouth Carolina. at Londongrove on March 6, 1741. (C-944) He is believed to have had at least one son, William. William had son Joseph who moved to Tyl, WV who may have been the ancestor to W. Virginia's Governor Underwood (1950).

| 2688 | Joseph was in the Queen Anne's Militia along with his brother, Abner, in 1748/9. He lived in Mispillion Hundred, Kent Co., DE from 1753 through 1755. | THARP, Joseph (I689)
|
| 2689 | Joseph was living in SC by the year 1752, likely in what became called Orangeburg District in 1768. Below is a description of the land in which Joseph Coats lived...It was likely called Craven Co., SC to begin with, then Orangeburgh Distnd then Kershaw Co., SC after that. http://www.carolana.com/Carolina/Settlement/craven_county_original.html"One can argue that all of the existing counties within the state of South Carolina were eventually derived from this original Carolana county named Craven and this argument would withstand almost any counter-argument. However, it was not quite that cut and dried. As with all of the colonies, the establishment of counties and/or precincts was a slow and sometimes painful process as the population grew and local sentiments evolved over time. However, well into the late 1700s, even after the American Revolution, many citizens continued to consider themselves as living in Craven County...In 1682, the Lords Proprietors decided to establish two new counties, south of Craven, and these were named Berkeley and Colleton. Craven was deemed to lie between the Cape Fear River (in present-day North Carolina) and southward to the mouth of the Awendaw Creek in present-day Berkeley County, South Carolina...In 1768, South Carolina eliminated all counties, including Craven County and established seven new "Districts," with governmental seats in each district. From 1768 to 1785, these districts remained intact, however, the district seats did change some during that time-frame. These were : Beaufort District, Camden District, Charles Town District, Cheraws District, George Town District, Ninety-Six District, and Orangeburgh District...With the creation of the first overarching Districts in 1768, the name Craven County was abolished, never to be resurrected in the state of South Carolina. However, North Carolina has had a Craven County in existence since 1712 to the present day. Apparently, one is enough for the two Carolinas. If one were to attempt to determine which of the current South Carolina counties are actually situated within the last incarnation of Craven County prior to its elimination in 1768, the best guess would have to include: all of Horry, Georgetown, Williamsburg, Marion, Darlington, Florence, Dillon, Marlboro, Chesterfield, Lee, and Lancaster counties, and parts of Charleston, Berkeley, Clarendon, Sumter, and Kershaw counties." He was a Baptist minister for Swift Creek Church (Charleston Association Minutes). He was whipped for preaching near Cheraw Hill sometime before 1772 by the Baptist Community. They justified it because of "Cate's" immorality. There is a current day Swift Creek Baptist Church near Camden, Kershaw Co., SC that had a famous early settler named Cheraw that is likely where he lived at the time. This area is locate east and slightly north of Columbia, SC. (C-598a) He or his son Joseph is listed in the 1778 census for Camden District (Kershaw Co.), South Carolina. When Joseph died in Orangeburgh his likely son, Joseph, appears to have inherited his property. His death date is theorized to be 1791 by Beverly Burton as his "messenger" position at Swift Creek Church was taken over in that year. He or his son Joseph are probably the Joseph Coats who purchased 300 acres of land in Craven Co., SC on Nov. 4, 1772. Joseph purchased 100 acres of land from adjoining land owned by William Scott of Craven Co., SC previous to 1779. He was a witness to William Scott's will (of Craven Co., SC) in 1779 along with a John Coate (his son?). William Scott apparently didn't die till 1794 when John went before the court in Kershaw Co., SC to testify as to the accuracy of William Scott's will.(C-910) It is complete theory on my part who his children are. I will state under each child's name why they have been included in this list. | COATS, Joseph (I9227)

| 2690 | Joseph was of the Dunkard faith and was a farmer by trade. | RENCH, Joseph (I14898)
|
| 2691 | Joseph was the first clerk for South Plymouth or what became known as the Second Precinct. In 1909, the home that Joseph built was still standing and a part of the tour for the descendants of his father, Robert. (F-532) | BARTLET, Joseph (I2913)
|
| 2692 | Joseph was the second of twelve children born to John. (C-797) The listing of his death date in one source the same day he was married is in error as he is listed in his brother's will in 1809. His marriage date was May 30, 1783. He purcha0 acres of land on the Uwharrie River in Randolph Co., NC on Jan 5, 1787 that was issued to him on May 18, 1789. (C-116, 671, 2172) He was the only Mast of this generation in this branch of the family to remain in North Carolina after the great move to Ohio by his siblings. He is the father of a Reuben Mast. Reuben and his sons moved to Nacogdoches,Texas where they were they multiplied their wealth in land and banking. They are the ancestors of the highly respected current day powerhouse Mast family. (C-1459) Reuben had a son William Penn Mast who continued on from Texas north to Coquille, Oregon in the late 1800's with about 75 family members. There is a large Mast presence in Oregon from this branch. (C-741) He likely had offspring that started a general store in 1883 that has become a small historical chain of general stores in North Carolina. The first one built was in Valle Crucis and is on the National Register of Historic Places. C:DOC His original log cabin is still standing. The large family home built by his descendants is now a gorgeous bed and breakfast in Valle Crucis (2006) and it's history is provided below at http://www.mastfarminn.com/aboutus/history/index.html."The Mast farm dates from the late 1700s, when Joseph Mast traveled to the mountains from Randolph County, North Carolina, where he was born in 1764. His father John had settled there after emigrating from Switzerland via Pennsylvania, where his brother remained. Joseph is said to have traded his rifle, his dog, and a pair of leggings for 1000 acres of fertile Watauga River Valley land. The first house, a two-room log cabin, was built around 1810 and remains today as the oldest inhabitable log cabin in Watauga County.The farm and family prospered through the 19th Century, and Finley and Josephine Mast built the first part of the farmhouse in the 1880s. Around the turn of the century, the Masts began offering meals and rooms to tourists, enlarging the house to accommodate the growing number of guests. By 1915, the inn had 13 bedrooms and one bath. It was called "the Mast Farm" or simply "Aunt Josie's and Uncle Finley's."Aunt Josie Mast, besides running the house and managing the vegetable garden and dairy, was a master weaver. She turned the original log cabin into a loom house and became celebrated for her coverlets, rugs, and handbags. Some of her coverlets are in the Smithsonian today.Uncle Finley and Aunt Josie's two sons did not continue the inn after their parents' deaths in the 1930s. Joe, the younger, who was blind, lived in the house until 1964, when ill health forced him to move away.After Joe Mast died, the house stood empty or was briefly rented until 1984, when Francis and Sibyl Pressly bought the property and restored it. Once again, The Mast Farm Inn became a destination for visitors to the Blue Ridge Mountains.In June 1996, the Inn changed ownership when Wanda Hinshaw and Lyle Schoenfeldt, with daughter, Sarah, moved back to Wanda's home state from Texas. Wanda's sister, Kay Philipp, with her family had made Watauga County home for many years. Today, Kay and Wanda are sister Innkeepers, just as in the old days, when Josie's sister, Leona, had worked with her at the Inn. Interestingly, the present innkeepers are natives of the same Randolph County where Joseph Mast's family lived in the 1700s.The Mast Farm was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1972, as "one of the most complete and best preserved groups of nineteenth century farm buildings in western North Carolina." Thanks to inspired restorations and good care, The Mast Farm Inn welcomes visitors today as it did a hundred years ago, providing delicious meals and comfortable lodging in a beautiful setting." | MAST, Joseph (I15832)

| 2693 | Joseph was the Secretary for the Dayton Bachelor's Society the same year that he married. | JOHN, Joseph R. (I8614)
|
| 2694 | Joseph's place of birth is still in question. It's listed as NC in the 1850 census for Harison Twp., Hoaward Co., IN, or as Newberry or Charleston, SC depending upon the 2nd hand source. Joseph and father appear to be living next to eacr in the 1820 census for Newberry Twp., Miami Co., Ohio. He and brother Williams were administrators for their father's estate. He and his brother, William moved to Marion Co., Indiana sometime in 1822. His sister, Hettie, was married in Marion Co., Indiana in Mar. of 1823 so she obviously moved with them also. He purchased 80 acres of land in Township 17, North range 4 East, Section 18, W1/2 SE 1/4. He is also listed with a purchase of 80 acres in Brookville District, Marion Co., IN on Aug. 7, 1823. Perhaps this is the same property and that it's just a different stage in the purchase process. He is apparently listed in the 1830 census for Marion Co., Indiana. In 1840, he is in the Hamilton Co., IN census records. Joseph is next listed "of Howard Co., IN" when he purchases 80 acres of land in the same county on Mar. 20, 1849. In the 1850 census for Howard Co., Indiana, Joseph is listed at age 58 and born in North Carolina. Joseph died while working in his fields according to his daughter, Hettie's obituary. Some say this was in Howard or Tipton Co., IN. According to several genealogies at ancestry.com, he died in Kansas instead. He is possibly buried in the Friends Cemetery in New London, Howard Co., IN or in East Union Cemetery in Hamilton Co., IN. The East Union Cemetery is just over the border from Tipton Co., IN where his wife is buried. I could not however, find his burial record in East Union Cemetery transcriptions.
