| 3951 | This Ada is the Ada Ann whose birth was recorded in Wolverhampton Parish, ENG where Bilston would be located in Dec. of 1871, v. 6b, p. 568 of the GRO's. She was age 15 when she died in Wheeling, WV according to her death record. This decord verifies her parents names. It also states she was born in Bilston, England. | DIMMACK, Ada Ann (I1698)

| 3954 | This Andrew is listed in John Jr. Young's will (1783) as the son of his brother James. He was given a gun by his Uncle in his 1780 will. This indicates to me that he was likely born much earlier than 1780. Records that might apply to tndrew are as follows.*1785--September 5, John Young and Mary Rankin; surety, James Rankin.*1786--August 29, Andrew Young and Margaret Garvin, daughter of John Garvin; surety, James Young.*1789--April 21, Thomas Garvin and Elizabeth Young, daughter of James Young (consent); witnesses, John Dickey, Wm.

| 3955 | This Aquilla is listed as the son of Moses who was the son of Moses in Truman Coates book. This is incorrect. Quaker records according to Hinshaw, Vol. 5, Hopewell M.M. in VA list him as the son of John and Hannah Coates when he marriesl Pidgeon. | COATES, Aquila (I7911)

| 3956 | This aunt of my fathers is remembered with great fondness by him. She was a very sweet, kind genteel woman who outlived her husband and child. She was nicknamed Mamie J. as a baby by the 1880 census where she was staying with her grandp. She was one of 3 Baccalaureate speakers as her High School Graduation on May 6, 1898 for West Milton High School. She was listed as the honored final speaker with her oration entitled "Thermopylae". She was a teacher in Miami County. I have one of her teacher qualification exam certificates in my files date Aug. 5, 1899, Troy, Ohio. She is the aunt who gave my father the two rocks that had been in the family a long, long time: the indian matat (et) and the stone shaped like a Mexican sombrero (or axe) that was probably the stone found by the first Coates to come to Ohio, Henry's children, on their first day at Ludlow Falls. It is described in a biography of their first day as being shaped like an "adze". It could have been a stone tied to a very large piece of wood made into a very heavy axe. She died at age 81 according to her cemetery records as indexed in the Miami Valley Index on the internet. (C-362, ) | COATE, Mary Jane (Mamie) (I11995)

| 3957 | This Bartholomew has a birth date of Oct. 1, 1681 in Elizabeth Harris' E-mail letter dated 9/8/95. (C-613) According to a second descendant, Rodger Smith, Bartholomew and Jacob Jonathan were twins. He was given the family bible and thel of George Fox, the famous Quaker leader, in his father's will. Bartholomew owned land adjacent to his father's land in Springfield, Chester Co., PA in a deed dated Oct 13, 1709. (C-2136) He and his wife Phebe deeded 373 acres to Henry Lewis in Marple, Chester Co., PA on Dec 26, 1711. This land formally belonged to Jonathan Taylor, deceased, which might give a clue to a possible first marriage for Phebe as her known name included Taylor. (C-2139) He is supposedly listed in "Smith's Atlas of Early Grants" which shows his residence as Marple, Chester Co, PA in 1715. He is also listed "of Marple Twp." when his daughter Rebecca marries in 1744. He witnessed a will of William West of Springfield in Chester Co., PA in Feb of 1720. (C-2150) I have a very illegible copy of his own will written in 1761 which I will try to transcribe herein: " I Bartholomew Coppck of ( ) in the County of Chester and Province of Pennsylvania being weak of Body But of Sound mind and memory thanks be to almighty God for Same Do make this my Last will and testament in manner following First my will and (desirs) that all my just Debts and funerall expenses be paid by Executors hereafter named as soon as May be after my (Descese) ( ) I Give and bequeath to my Son (in Law Seth Pencoast) all that my Plantation and being in (Marple ) Containing one hundred and Eighty (Acres) (be same) more or less to him & his heirs and assigns forever He ( ) to be paid one hundred and Sixty pounds Lawfull money within ( ) years after my Decease to be Divided in manner following that is fifty pounds to my Daughter Rebecca Fell to be paid to my daughter Sarah ( ) forty pounds to my Daughter Margret Camm and ( ) Son Bartholomew Coppock I give to my Son Moses Coppock the Sum of Five Shillings I give and bequest to my Daughter Rebecca Fell one Feather Bed and Furniture one Silver ( ) and Francis Howgill's Journal Item I Give my Daughter Margret Camm Thomoas Chalkley's Journal Item I Give my Daughter Esther Pencoast my Best Feather Bed & Furniture one ( ) ( ) George Fox's Journal and my ( ) that all my (Pewter) ( ) Daughter Rebecca Sarah and Esther also my Wearing apparrel (to) Equally Divided Between my three Son in Laws William Fell Daniel Sharples and Seth Pencoast and as for the rest and residue of my Estate I Give to my Daughter Esther Pencoast to her her heirs and afsigns Item I Do appoint my three Sons in Laws William Fell Daniel Sharples and Seth Pencoast (Executors) of this my Last Will and Testament Revoking all other wills heretofore by one made in witnefs whereof I have here ( ) Set my hand and Seal this Ninth Day of the Second month one thousand Seven hundred and Sixty one 1761 Signed Sealed Published and Declared by the Said Bartholomew Coppock and for his Last Will and Testament in the presence of (Nathan Hall) (J.

| 3958 | This Benjamin's birth date comes from a Genealogy blank prepared by the Ohio Dep. of Vital Records in 1962 for Annie Coppock Kransdorf's mother. They supposedly used vital records and published biographies for most of their information.es his birth date as Jul 18, 1817 and Sep. 17, 1890 for his death date. However, his death date differs in other sources. He is likely the Benjamin Coppock who was committed to the State Mental Institution for Insanity after having suffered a mental disorder for two years that started with being unable to sleep and grew into a state where family members stated that they feared that he was not safe to himself or others. There is a series of letters and documents that can be studied about his case in the Miami County Court House Probate section filed on Mar. 19, 1850, Case #1840, B-154. One of the documents filed by his doctor stated that it was not Epilepsy although several family members were diagnosed with Epilepsy. | COPPOCK, Benjamin J. Jr. (I11888)

|
| 3964 | This child's name was definitely America as listed in their 1850 census. Her first name is listed as Polly A. Duvall in her father's will. She is probably the Mollie A. Clark who married G.W. Deval in Gallipolis, Ohio on June 17, 1874.s is true, the 1900 census record for a George Duvall living in Gallipolis, Gallia Co., OH on pg. 58B has a wife named Mary A. She was born Jan. 1843 and had a father who was born in Kentucky and a mother born in North Carolina. (CL-254) | CLARK, Mary America "Amelia" "Polly" (I12284)

| 3965 | This Christopher Forte is the son of Samuel Forte, Jr. as verified in the 1715 Census of St. Johns Parish in Barbados. All of Samuel Jr.'s children had been born by 1715 except for son Enoch. We know 4 of Christopher's children for sure, to be Samuel, William, Christopher and Ann from Christopher's brother, Samuel (III)'s will. (F-458) | FORTE, Christopher * (I16257)
|
| 3966 | This Coate's group's lineage is proven back to Henry Coate "The Elder" b. abt 1595 who was the son of Marmaduke and Marie Somner Coate of Bridgeport and Curry Rivel England via a YDNA match to a cousin in Australia. We know from our Coats YDNA group that Gentleman John is absolutely a descendant from Samuel and Mary Saunder's Coate so the theory that his father is William is still reasonable. William was after all the only other son of Samuel and Mary Saunders Coate that ended up in South Carolina near the town of Newberry. We also know that his brother, Henry's sons as recorded in Quaker records do not account for any of William's sons. What we also know through a detailed YDNA analysis, is that his son John is Big John Coats!!!!! This evidence comes from comparing the YDNA of a descendant of Gentleman John with 4 descendants of Big John. The results show Big John is related at the 8 generation point to Gentleman John at the 97% range. Also these sets of descendants have way more YDNA in common than with anyone else in the Coats group confirming by age, place and YDNA that Big John is the son of Gentleman John. Multiple autosomal triangulations with another descendant of Big John via his son John M. also converge on this exact same deduction. We now have good YDNA evidence that Gentleman John is the probable brother to Thomas who died in the Newberry area of SC in 1800. We also now have an indication via autosomal DNA triangulations with Dubois descendants that this Gentleman John who died on May 6, 1803 is related to the Rachel Dubois Coate of Northern Liberties, Philadelphia, PA and to her grandfaher, Louis Dubois. What that indicates is that Gentleman John's wife or Mother was a Dubois descended from Louis Dubois! We know it can be narrowed to these 2 females as they are the only unknown females back in the distance where autosomal dna is indicating a common Dubois ancestor to Gentleman John. What we also know about John is that he has the title Gentleman in some of the late public documents in the Carolinas. He was probably born between 1730 and 1740. He might possibly be the John Coate who along with wife Mary, moved from Chesterfield M.M. to Kingwood M.M., N.J. on 13,1,1763 and then returned to Chesterfield M.M. on 11,12,1766. (C-46) Here is what Summers book says about him: "John Coats died about 1803, his will being dated May 25, 1799. He left widow, Mary, and children Samuel, John, William, James, Mary Pemberton, Katy Casselle, and Rebecca." We know that John Coate owned land on Mathias Branch on Bush Creek from his will. Kathleen Woodrow believes that Mathias Branch is a creek that runs closely into the junction of Reedy Creek and Big Beaverdam Creek before it flows into Bush River a mile north of the town of Newberry. However, it should be noted that no deed has been found for his purchase of land. A 400 acre tract purchased in 1772 is attributed to him, but it's location has been determined to be multiple miles northwest of the town of Newberry, with neighbors that don't connect to any of the neighbors of his in a 1773 plat map or in his will of 1803. A plat map survey done for Christian Kinslar in Mar. of 1773 on Bush River shows that John Coate (his son) was adjoining his land. Other neighbors included Jacob Pemberton, John Furnas, Samuel Kelly, and Jacob Chandler (all families mentioned as adjoining land he was giving to his sons in his will). Some of these are the same persons living next to William Coats when he purchased land in Craven Co., SC in 1767. He therefore, might be the John Coats who purchased 150 acres of land on June 6, 1769 in Craven Co., South Carolina. It's possible boundary changes in the county lines could mean this land was later in Newberry, SC. That needs to be checked. (C-2306) He was the John that was connected as furnishing sundries and supplies during the Revolutionary War in DAR records. This was revoked as lacking evidence at some point. Here is the DAR index that was listed for Gentleman John in the past. COATS , John, Birth SC Circa 1740, Rank PS (Public Service), Service SC, Death SC 3 , Jun 1803, Patriot Pensioned No, Widow Pensioned No, Children Pensioned No, Heirs Pensioned No, Spouse (1) Mary X (C-614c, 1889, EL-Coate). He apparently was delisted as a Revolutionary War supporter in about 1998 because no one could prove for sure that he was the John Coate who was a Revolutionary War soldier. These reimbursement papers from 1781-1783 indicate he did blacksmithing. These papers, therefore, likely to belong to Big John or Little John Coats as they were the only known blacksmiths in the Coate family at that time. </line><line /><line>He or his son John is probably the John who was disowned by the Quaker church at the Oct 28, 1780 Bush River MM, South Carolina. His family isn't even included in Medlin's [UL:Quaker Families:UL]. It should be noted however, that the William who is connected as John's son, signs his own will like a Quaker would have. At least some of his grandchildren married into the Baptist faith and are buried in Bush River Baptist Cemetery. One of his great grand-daughters married into the Baptist faith, Nancy, d. of Samuel's daughter, Charlotte Steadman, also. (C-1896, 1927)In the 1790 census (p. 57), I now believe him to be the John Cotes living next to Samuel Kelly. If so, he had 3 males over 16 and 3 females in the household. This would account for he and his wife, their son James and youngest daughter, Rebecka. I'm guessing that one of his married children and spouse are also still living on his farm at that time. If this is him, he is living next to Samuel Kelly, Sr. and near his son John who looked to be newly married with a wife. They would have also lived within 40 homes of Marmaduke and Little John Coates family. I have determined that this census applies to him for the following reasons. His neighbors in the 1790 census records match his neighbors in the following land transactions. He is listed as a neighbor along with James Dobbins on Matthias Branch of Bush River in Aug of 1770. (James Dobbins is also on page 56.) His daughter Mary is married to George Pemberton on page 57 also. When he witnesses Joseiah Pemberton's purchase of land on Dec 5, 1771 on Mathews Creek on Bush River, his neighbors are Robert Evans, and John Brooks. Pembertons and Brooks lived somewhat near as they are on page 57 and 56. (see below) When he deeds 3 of his sons property in 1803 before his death, the properties bounded on lands owned by Samuel Compton (Kampton), Rebekah Evans, Welk Furnas and Samuel Kelly. All the persons mentioned in these records are neighbors or have the same surnames of persons living near him in the 1790 census. One of these deed records is listed below. (C-559, 1549, 2232) p. 247 Book Z-3, pp. 271-275, 5 or 6 Dec. 1771, James Walker Moore (his mark), blacksmith, Haverilla (her mark) his wife, to Joseiah Pemberton, planter, both of Berkeley Co., for 400 pounds currency, 250 a. on Mathews Creek, a branch of Bush River, bounding NW, NE on Robert Evans; NE on John Brooks; other sides on vacant land; granted Moore 24 Aug 1720 by Lt. Gov. William Bull (Sec. Book F.F.F., p. 131). Witnesses: John Thomas, John Coate, James Daugherty. Before Thomas Wadlington, J.P. Recorded 10 Nov. 1772 by Henry Rugeley, Register. In the 1800 census, Gentleman John and his wife are empty nesters, living as a couple with no other children in their household. John Coate's wife's surname is still unknown. Parks suggested that it might be Mary McQueston from a 1769 marriage record in North Carolina. However, this entire family named John Coots and Mary McQuiston, stayed and raised children in NC and Tennesee in Presbyterian Church records, so that theory has been proven to be incorrect. (C-1898) Another theory is that she is Mary Watson based upon a deed record dated Jun 7, 1774. Though it is possible he married a Mary Watson, I see no certain connection because we've figured out who each of the persons in that deed are. A James Coate died in 1794 in GA, leaving heirs that included his wife Mary, his son John (who had moved to Newberry, SC) and multiple daughters who all married Watsons, sons of Thomas Watson, Sr. (C-1521) His will written May 25, 1799 is transcribed as follows: In the Name of God Amen (This verifies that he is not a Quaker at his death as it is a form of oath taking) ---- I John Coate of the County of Newberry and State of South Carolina being in my perfect mind memory and Understanding and Calling to mind the Mortality of my body and Knowing that it is appointed for Man Once to die, do Make and Ordain this my last Will and Testament (VIZ).

Powel - Fred. Nance John Coate (Seal) Recorded in Will Book "D" Page 57. Proved June 6th, 1803. Test. Samuel Lindsey, O.N.D. (Recording Date Not Available). Box No. 26- Pkg No 55-- Est No. 613. (C-266, 336, 614b, 633, 692, 1954, 2121)He died on May 6, 1803. (C-692) His children were not listed as minors at the writing of his will in 1799. Two of his daughters were married by that point. (C-879, 886) All the children's birth dates I have estimated from information in the will, from information on his possible son Samuel's daughter, Nancy, and from census records. Note that as the son of William, he would have named one son after his father and one daughter after his step-sister Katherine. An interesting pattern appears with the land he deeded his sons on his deathbed in 1803. Gentleman John's son William in his will dated 1816, gives land to his family that is described in a way that could match the original William of 1766's land in Newberry Co., South Carolina. It is listed as adjoining "old Golden's" land which was true of William of 1766's land. When he was given land by his father's will dated 1799, the land was described as being next to Samuel Kelly's land. Again, this was another neighbor of the original William. In other words, the William who died ca 1822 could have owned land of his grandfather. We are not sure if he received it from his father John, his possible grandfather William, or one of his brothers, but it certainly sounds like land that the original William owned. | COATE, Gentleman John (I16536)

| 3976 | This Deborah has only been in one source as the child of William and Mary Vestal Jay. This info. from J. Jay came from the book, "Settlement and Some First Families of Back Creek Valley", p. 188. She was the wife of James McCool who wased in 1772 for singing, swearing, dancing and gambling. She and her children remained in good standing with the church. In 1773, they apparently bought land in District 96, Bush River, SC, but sold it and returned to Virginia in 1777. (C-961) She is also not listed as the daughter of William and Mary in an interview of their son John in the late 1790's, early 1800's about his brothers and sisters. (C-839) | JAY, Deborah (I13675)
|
| 3977 | This Dudik's birth name was Gyorgy, but he took the name of Joseph when he emmigrated to America. The first time we see him going by the name of Josef is literally on the ship's manifest when he arrives at Ellis Island. His native language was Slovakian. The peoples of his home town, Neviczke, Hungary, were considered Ruthenian, Rusyns or Magyars (Hungarian). They were not Russian by culture, but considered to be on the outskirts of Russia at one point in time. The way Gyorgy Josef's name is spelled in the records is a Hungarian spelling. The 1900 census says that Joseph came in 1888 and his wife in 1891. This does not appear to be true. They might have left their home in 1891 but they arrived in 1892. He and his wife first came to America on Feb. 17, 1892 though they bunked in seperate quarters. They arrived in New York through Ellis Island. His name is Gyorgy in Nevizcke and Josef in America. Immigrants often changed their first name to a more "American" name when they emmigrated. Josef departed in Vienna, Austria on the ship Waesland along with his brother-in-law, Mihaly Vocsik and a likely uncle or cousin named Joseph Vovscik, age 34. Joseph Dudik was listed at age 26. They were listed as Hungarian. They bunked together and were headed to Sheffield, PA. Mihaly's sister, Maria Vocsik, wife of Josef Dudik also came on this same ship. Even though Maria was listed by her maiden name in this record, it was common practice for women to be listed by their maiden name in these ships passenger lists. They are on record as having son Andras back in 1887 in Neviczke, Austria Hungary, Maria in an unknown location in 1889 and then a child whom died as an infant in 1992 after being born in 1991. It is interesting to note that the two children we have birth records for in Nevizcke both had the same god parents, Mihaly and Julianna Vovcsik. I'm assuming Mihaly was Maria's brother and Julianna was likely Mihaly's wife whom we know to be named Anna in her birth record. Maria's sister Julianna was suppose to be the baby of the family and would have been too young to be a godparent. Joseph and Maria had jobs in different towns lined up according to the ship's passenger records. Joseph Dudik and Mihaly Vocsik were both listed as laborers headed for Sheffield, Warren Co., PA which is northwest Pennsylvania somewhat close to Johnsonburg, Pennsylvania where this family ended up living. Joseph's wife, Maria Vocsik, was age 24, and listed as a servent headed along with her 18 year old relative, B. Bogdan, to Pottsville, Montgomery Co., PA which is northwest of Philadelphia and quite a bit further east than Johnsonburg, Pennsylvania where she and her husband lived their final years. (D-50, 81) (D-200, 201, 225) George Joseph appears to have returned to the old country and come back to America on an immigration list on Nov. 23, 1901 in Ellis Island Records on the ship Graf Waldersee departing from Hamburg. He was from Noviczky, Hungary. He was age 38. This would suggest his birthdate as 1863. He was going to stay with Jano Vovck in Johnsonburg, PA. He had $22.00 on him at the time. He was the correct age to be this same person and would have been staying with his brother-in-law. He was married. He was listed as Hungarian. By that same year 1901, all of Joseph and Mary's children had been born. Their birth dates are usually incorrect in the public birth records as per interviews with these family members. The doctor apparently submitted many of their children's birth dates and even names incorrectly. Joseph is listed as a laborer in 1899 when their son George Joseph was born. They lived at the Hill (Hall) St. Extension in Johnsonburg at the time. In the newspaper obituary for this George Joseph it lists his parents as George and Mary Wolfe Dudick. (D-50, D-109) In 1900, they owned a house free and clear on Clarion Junction, Johnsonburg, PA according to the June 1900 census. Joseph could not read nor write, but could speak English. His wife could not read, write nor speak English. He was a day laborer by trade. He is listed as an alien (not a naturalized citizen). Wife, Marie and daughter, Marie were both listed as naturalized, although one of these facts is likely incorrect as citizenship came with the prerequisite of speaking English. They lived at Indian Run when their daughter, Julia was born in 1901. (D-56) I was not able to find one of our Dudick's in the 1910 or 1920 census. (F-246a) Joseph Dudik appears to have again traveled back to the old country and returned to Arrayo, Pennsylvania to stay with his son, Gyorgy Dudik on the Pannonia on May 21, 1906. Arrayo was located in Spring Creek Twp., Elk Co., PA on the Clarion River 18 miles south west of Johnsonburg. His son would have been only 7 at the time, so I'm assuming he was returning to live with whole family too. He listed his age as 42. This would calculate his birthdate to be 1864. His last residence was listed as Neviczke, Hungary. His race is listed as Slovak. He was listed as a farmer and married. He stated he had lived in Johnsonburg, Pennsylvania previously from what possibly looks like 1900-1903. Joseph died on Oct. 29, 1906 according to Mary's typed up third marriage application. He was listed as a Section Boss at the time of his death by his daughter Anna in her marriage record dated 1914 where he was also listed as deceased. His death certificate listed as Joseph Dudoack, states that he died on Nov. 2, 1901. It occurred on Johnsonburg, Elk Co., Pennsylvania of unknown cause. The person whom submitted the information obviously did not know much about him. It stated that he was age 38, born in Paland Russia. His parents of unknown name were born in Russia. He was married at the time. It looks like the info might have been supplied by a neighbor, George Younger, Sr. whose name is listed at the bottom left of the death record. (D-DOC, F-246a) Articles have finally come to light thanks to descendant Ken Anderson that obviously apply to this Joseph Dudick. An article in the Nov 8, 1907 Johnsonburg Press was about the death of Joe Dudak (Dudick?) on Nov 1-2, 1907. It is transcribed by Ken as follows "Johnsonburg Press Friday: November 8, 1907 Pg.1, A MURDER MYSTERY? Mysterious circumstances surround the death of Joseph Dudak, which occurred at his home about a quarter of a mile above the mouth of Indian Run, on the Glen Hazel road some time Friday night following a drinking bout indulged in by the dead man, his wife, Steve Zimmerman and James Misko, the latter two belonging to the Rasselas settlement, when a quart of brandy and a quart of alcohol was drank, in which was also a quantity of pepper to make it hotter, coupled with the fact that two of the men were on the way home from Johnsonburg and while in town they drank considerable. The first intimation that there were suspicious circumstances was Saturday morning when Mrs. Dudak came to town and said her husband was dead. Squire Secrist and Constable Mc Clintle went up to view the remains, and the oldest boy, John, said that he saw Zimmerman go out to the wagon along the road to get the last bottle of booze, which was alcohol and while there he emptied the contents of a paper into the bottle. Dudak took a drink, and immediately afterwards became violently sick, and remained in that condition until along towards morning, when he died. The remains were given in charge Undertakers, Ubel Flynn. Sunday morning a coroner's jury was impaneled, consisting of D. W. _, Geo. Younger, Sr., Alva H. Gregory, Phil Tirttle, J. Weiss and W. I. Secrist, the Iatter being selected foreman. The testimony of Steve Zimmerman, Jas. Misko, Mrs. Dudak and her son, John and daughter, Mary was heard, the first fwo telling a pretty straight story but from the others no information further than a contradictory mix-up was secured. Dr. Sharp made a post-mortem examination of the internal organs. These together with the bottle which Johnnie alleged was the bottle into which he saw Zimmerman place the poison, were produced in evidence at the second meetting of the coroner's jrry Monday morning. There being no evidence against Zimmerman further than that of the boy, he was allowed to go. The internal organs and the bottle have been sent to a chemist for analysis, after which the coroner's jury will again meet and determine the cause of death, if possible. Zimmerman & Misko who live near Rasselas were in Johnsonburg Friday morning driving past Dudak's house. They saw Dudak who said he was going hunting, didn't feel good, and asked them to bring back something to drink. On the return trip they stopped at Dudak's house about 5:00, took in a bottle of brandy, and when it was gone Zimmerman went to the wagon to get the alcohol. They left about 7:00 and didn't learn of Dudak's death until the next day. Dudakk's remains were placed in the charge of the County Commissioners who had them interred in the County Home Cemetery in St Marys. Johnsonburg Press Nov 15, 1907 The Coroner determined that Joe Dudak died of alcoholism and no trace of poison was found. (This suggests he died of liver failure.) "Note; The Johnsonburg Press was a weekly paper published on Fridays therefore Joe Dudick died early Saturday morning Nov 2, 1907. At the time the Dudick's were living on Glen Hazel near the Clarion River on the outskirts of Johnsonburg PA according to these articles. Then to further support that this is the same family, an article on Jan 3, 1908 in the same paper stated: "County Commissioner Thomas paid a visit to Father Baker's school in Buffalo last week and was much pleased with what he saw at the institution. He took there the thirteen year old son of Joe Dudack, the man who died suddenly at Johnsonburg some weeks ago, and left him. The lad is bright but has never attended school a day in his life. He was anxious to go to the Buffalo institution and Commissioner Thomas thinks it's the place for him. There are seven hundred boys in the school at the present time and they are not only educated, but also taught trades. It's a charitable institution and set up by Father Baker's unceasing efforts in behalf of homeless boys." On that same day there was an article about Mary Dudak being arrested for the murder of a Mary Ann Tozler. Though difficult to read, it seems that Mary set fire to a house that Mary Ann Tozler was in and it was thought that Mary Ann died in the fire. An April edition of the paper said Mary Dudak was acquitted due to lack of proof since the body was never found. What we know from family interviews of his son John and others, Mary, Joseph's wife did not have the funds to keep the family together after his death. Mary went to work in a boarding house. The boys, John Joseph and Joe Dudick all were sent to Father Baker's home for boys in Buffalo, N.Y. Joe Dudick was adopted for a while by a German family who thought he was German. When they found out he wasn't, they neglected him and he ran away, back to St. Mary's Orphanage. The girls, were sent to a girls home in Erie, PA, except for Mary--who was 14. She ran away to Bradford and worked at the hospital. When the elder Mary was able, she returned for her children. To her great grief, her youngest daughter, Julia, had been adopted out. She and her other children spent years searching for Julia. Julia had been taken from the orphanage in Erie by the chief of the Erie fire department. She wasn't actually adopted by him, but he had enough influence to keep her original mother from knowing her whereabouts. Julia wanted to find her family desperately too. She skipped school at age 12 or 13 and went to the orphanage to try and find her brothers and sisters. She was simply told they were no longer there. She then ran away at age 14 and married Harry Dimick. This marriage ended in divorce and she moved to California. Julia eventually found her original family with the help of a priest at St. Agnes in Los Angeles, California in 1932 or 1933. Although the reunion was very special to all of them, her mother had sadly passed away by then. Julia's name had been changed to Marion Gertrude by her care-taker family. In 1940, Julia met and married Clarence Olmstead. He operated a poultry market. They later purchased and operated a liquor store. She retired in the early 70's and died of a stroke in 1977. Mary Dudick, wife of Joseph Dudick, met Mike Cesario in Mt. Alton, PA after her husband's death. He was a foreman for the railroad. She had two more children by him, Josephine and Tony Cesario. Mary had a sister, Veronica?, (who married John or Michael Parilla) and at least one brother, Mike Wolfe and his son John, living in Johnsonburg, PA (D-45). She visited her sister Veronica (Ella) in Johnsonburg, PA for all or most of her own children's births. She had a sister, Julianna's family that she also visited in New York State. </line><line ></line><line>She seems to have had a very hard life, according to her son, Tony Cesario. She had a religious nature, did like to read from the bible, but was not accepted in the Catholic Church. Her granddaughter, Dorothy, remembers her as small and delicate in frame. Her oldest daughter looked just like her, but was tall. (D-116) She owned two older homes in Mt. Jewett at the time of her death. Since there was no will, one was given to Tony Cesario and one to Josephine. They tore them down and got trailers which were still standing on the same property in 1981. The known residences for our Joseph and Mary Dudick in America were: 1900: Joseph and Mary Dudick and family at Clarion Junction, Johnsonburg, PA; 1912: Mary Dudick and Mike Cesario lived in Backus, PA (D-21); 1919: Mary lived on Dayton St. in Mt. Jewett (D-21); Dec. 1919: Mary lived in Kushequa, PA (D-24); May 18, 1920: Mary lived in Kushequa, PA (D-28); 1929: Mary lived in Mt. Jewett. (D-33). They also were known to have lived in Salamanca, PA; Mt. Alton, PA; and Custer City, Pennsylvania. The Coat of Arms for Dudick is in "Siebmacher's Wappenbuch". The shield is blue with a white left-diagonal stripe with three red roses in it. Above that is a knight's helmet and a Crest of a black eagle. There is no recorded motto. The surname, Dudick, is believed to have originated in Germany. The surname in German means "one who was a simple man." (D-155) My children's great grandfather thought that his family was originally from Germany. Our branch had moved to Slovakia because they were remembered as speaking Slavic from the old country. That could mean the Slovak language from the state of Slovakia or Czech from the state of Bohemia, or Rusyn from the Slovakian region called Ruthenia or even Polish from Poland. These languages are similar and derive from common Slovak root. (E) There was a wonderful lead for the Dudick side of the family that finally helped us locate this family. Three people traveled together on the Pannonia from the Port of Fiume, Yugoslavia arriving in New York on Sep. 11, 1905 that all have connections to the Dudick family. They were all from Neviczke, Hungary and could read and write. They were Ruthenian by race. They were Janis Cynsik?, age 38, male, married, destination St. Clair, to be staying with his brother-in-law, Dudik in Pennsylvania. He had been in the country previously in the 1890's also staying in St. Clair, Pennsylvania. Next to him on the list is Mary Dudik, age 19, single, destination, her cousin, Anna (Uhisr) in New York City, New York. This would have been Mary, the daughter of Joseph and Maria Dudik. She was probably exaggerating her age in this statement. Below her on the passenger list was Veorn (Veron) Vovcsik (who was the sister-in-law of Joseph Dudick). She was age 19, single, going to see her brother-in-law, Jozef Kacsik in Arroyo, Elk Co., Pennsylvania. He was the husband of her sister, Julianna. Veron later married Joseph Perilla and went by the name of Veronica Ella Perilla. Researchers Ken and Carol Anderson hired a researcher from the town of Nevicke/Nevicrke in what is now the Ukraine and were able to verify that the Dudicks were originally spelled Dudik and lived in the Nevicke area as well. Eureka! After more than 30 years of searching we finally know where the Dudicks are from. Sadly, the 2 books in existence for this town do not cover the years in which our Gyorgy Dudik was born. He went by the name of Gyorgy Dudik in Neviczke. Homes in Neviczke, Hungary were along one street. The following Dudik's whom lived in Neviczke just a few years prior to his birth lived in the houses designated with the following house numbers in Byzantine Church Records. I was able to hire a researcher and finally find Gyorgy Dudik's parents. He grew up in house 23 below and his parents were Andij and Anna Dudik. I have included all of the Dudik's in this small town as they were all highly likely his relatives. This is not a common name that I've found anywhere but in Neviczke/Nevike. Nevike is now along the western border of the Ukraine. Dudik House 19 Record #2 - 27.02.1857, Dudik Georgij, 20 y.o, house #19, and Volinich Anna, 19 y.o, widow, House #65.

In addition, we know of the following Dudik's in Ellis Island records and other from websites. Andrej was born in 1861 in Neviczke who travelled to America in 1900 from Antwerp on the Kensington. He was married at the time. He traveled with an 18 year old, Pavol Dudik who was likely his son. Their destination was Andrej's brother-in-law's (Joseph Kitore's?) home in Pottsville, Pennsylvania. The other Dudik's we have found living in Neviczke at this same time that again are likely relatives are a Joinos Dudik who witnessed a christening along with an Anna Vovcsik for Julia (Lasko) on Nov. 20, 1887. There is also a Bax... Dudik at an unreadable date in a similar time frame. Two records down on the same page there is another Anna Dudik who appears to be the wife of a Josef (Hofrsiaca). On Dec. 26, 1886, Anna Dudik and a Gyorgy Grosih witness the baptism of an Anna Uhrin again in Neviczke. Gyorgy Dudik and Anna Grosih are the parents of Maria, b. Sep. 8, Christened Sep. 10 of an unknown year. This was witnessed by a Gyorgy Dudik and a Juliana Grosih, obvious relatives of the parents. Anna Dudik married to Joseph Vovcsik are parents of Anna, b. Oct. 24 (unstated year) and christened on Oct. 25th. Their witnesses to the christening were Janos Gutys and Maria Kovacs. A Maria Dudik witnesses the baptism of Anna (Ondrik) on Oct. 27th on that same page along with a (T? Karbovoineoz). A Janos Dudik witnessed the christening of Gyorgy Kohucho on Apr 19, 1895. A Jun 4, 1913 Ellis Island record also gives clues. A Gyorgy Dudik, age 20, born Neviczke, Hungary, listed his closest relatives in Nevickzke as Georg Dudik (originally of Nevickzke) and his wife Kochel Vahansoh(n/r?) originally of (S/L?)rargorod. They are listed as Slovak for nationality. He was going to join his brother Jan Dudik in Kane, Pennsylvania. All of these Dudik's being from this same small town in Hungary are highly likely to be related to our Gyorgy Dudik. | DUDIK, Gyorgy Josef * (I12607)

Signed Sealed and published as the last will of the Testator In presence of Edward Coppock Fran Newton John Royle Robert Kells 21 xxx xxxx 27 Oct 1720 Gulmon Coppock, John Coppock et Edward Coppock filii xxxx et This is possibly this Edward Coppock because his cemetery record places him at the right age to be this Edward. "Here lieth the body of Edward Coppock of Mobberly, who departed this life 12 of September, 1720, in the 76th year of his age." (born ca. 1644) His data was on the same cemetery stone as "William Coppock of Mobberley" (b. ca 1688), who "departed this life Jan 12 1741 in the 53rd year of his age" and Joseph, son of Joseph Coppock and Mary Barrett of Mobberley. It should be noted however, that I don't know how these other persons fit with this particular family. | COPPOCK, Edward (I1421)
|
| 3979 | This elder Alan, the first of the family to be established in England, was a younger son of Geoffrey, viscount of Porhoet in Brittany (d. 1141). He took the name of La Zouche when he emigrated to early England. His wife's estate included Ashby, which he then named Ashby-de-la-Zouche in Shropshire, England | DE PORHOET LA ZOUCHE, Alain (I1293)
|
| 3980 | This family came from Montreal, Canada. He or his father provided service for the King in France and was given land in Montreal, Canada. He left his mansion to his nephew in Montreal. The mansion that was on Rue(St.) Barre' in Montreallieved to have been theirs. He is listed as the father of William in William's birth record for Ontario, Canada. | BARR, Robert (I9556)
|
| 3981 | This Francis is listed three times on the Descendancy Chart, twice with the christening date of 1594 under two different spellings, Frances and Francis. The third entry is for a Francis, b. 1596?. I suspect that they all refer to one Franrn and christened 1594. The data could however, also suggest that the Francis or Frances christened in 1594 died and their next child they named Francis again. (C-600) In any case, this Frances died unmarried. (C-650) | STOCKETT, Francis (I305)
|
| 3982 | This George and daughter Ann are often confused with other Georges and daughter Anns in two generations of the Robinson lineage that are likely cousins, sons, relatives of each other that all married into the Hollingsworth lines. It isive that our George Robinson is not the George who married Catherine Hollingsworth (d. of Valentine) as their daughter, Ann, married a Jonathan Ogden in 1720 according to Jonathan Ogden's will dated 1727. This George was an executor for the estate of James Middleton in Chester Co., PA on Dec. 23, 1710. It lists George's children in this document as being Ann, Mary, Catrin, George, Valentine and Rebecca. (C-234)(C-233) It is somewhat likely that our George was a brother to a James Robinson who wrote his will in 1726 in what later became Delaware. James was the father of a George and an Ann. His daughter Ann married Stephen Hollingsworth, son of Valentine Hollingsworth. James's son George came to the Shenedoah Valley in 1739, purchasing 1100 acres of land. (C-233, 234) Even though the accepted father of our Ann is a George, it must be kept in mind that there is no proof of this. It could have been an error in research by an early family historian who was confused by the fact that there were at least two George's that had daughters named Ann of similar age. As to Ann's mother being an Ann Curtis?, this too is conjecture based on a George Robison who died before 1693 in New Castle Co., Del. who was married to an Ann Curtis? about 1658. This is really early for them to have a daughter Ann about Abraham's age. Ann's mother would have been in her 40's at the time of her birth, so it is possible enough to be included here as theory. (C-1066) | ROBINSON, George (I12007)
|
| 3983 | This Hannah is listed as Samuel Coate instead in Park's book. In either case, this infant likely died within a 3 week period as tradition goes. | COATES, Hannah (I1024)
|
| 3984 | This Henry and Sarah Curtis were the ancestors of Terpstra who has provided much of the Hoover information in this family tree. He had a relative named Henry nearly his same age who was also married to a Sarah Curtis related to his wife,h Curtis. Tis a confusing world. | HOOVER, Henry (I10016)
|
| 3985 | This Henry is a nephew of Henry Hoover who is also married to a different but related Sarah Curtis. In other words, there are two Henry's married to Sarah Curtis' in the same region who are related. Much of my Hoover info is supplied by aendant of this Henry named Patricia Terpstra. (C-2176) | HOOVER, Henry (I8295)
|
| 3986 | This Henry is likely the Henry Hollingsworth in Duplin Co., NC records for 1783 and in Sampson Co., NC in 1784. In the 1820 census for Adams Twp., Darke Co., Ohio, Henry lists himself as over 45. There is a female under age 10, one fr16, one from 16-18, and one from 26-45. He was engaged in agriculture. (C-130) Henry and Sarah deeded 150 acres to Isaac, his probable son in Darke Co., Ohio on Aug. 24, 1823. (C-125) His estate was probated the next year in 1824 in Darke Co., Ohio, Ib2, p. 43, fbh. (C-107) Nathan and Isaac Hollingsworth are both mentioned in the above deed and administration. (C-125,126) | HOLLINGSWORTH, Henry (I11854)
|
| 3987 | This infant is listed as a 2nd Aaron Coppock, son of Aron Coppock, in most 2nd hand sources, but his/her burial record simply lists infant Coppock who was buried on Apr 24, 1697. | COPPOCK, Infant (I189)
|
| 3988 | This infant is often listed as Aaron Coppock, but the original burial record only lists the death of an infant of Aaron Coppock being buried on that day. | COPPOCK, Infant (I756)
|
| 3989 | This is a letter that son Dale sent to his cousin Richard Coate about Dale's parents. Dated June 2003 "The address of the farm at the time we lived there was R. R. 1 Arcanum, Ohio. I am not sure of the address now, since those countys have all been changed to road names and box numbers. The farm was forty-three acres of soybeans. In the early years we raised three or four dairy cows to have milk and butter. We had pigs to sell and for meat. We chickens for meat and eggs. We always had cars around the barn to keep the mice away. When I got older and joined 4H I raised pigs for my project for a couple of years and then for the rest of the years, I raised rabbits. At one point I had over forty rabbits at a time and sold them as pets and to a butcher for meat. Mother always had a big bed of flowers along the drive that was 130 feet long and 10 feet wide. She loved flowers and always had lots of arrangements in the house and gave flowers to friends and neighbors. She president of the local Garden Club for a couple of years. The thing that most of the relatives remember, was our huge garden. It was 200 feet long and thirty feet wide. Mother always had three plantings of sweet corn, so we would have it for the whole season. She had five plantings of lettuce. There were always twenty to forty tomato plants with three to as many as six different varieties. She always rows of green beans, pleas, red beats, potatoes, cabbages, and a whole variety of other vegetables, that changed as she found new things to try. To this day, I have never met anyone who worked as hard as my mother did. She got up at four o'clock in the morning and when to bed after the eleven o'clock news. Not only did she take care of her home and yard and garden, but she worked four days a week in Arcanum for The John Smith Company, in their grocery department from 1952 to 1968.Mother was also known all over the county for her baking ability. She made hundreds of pies and cakes and thousands of cookies for bakes sales, carry-in dinners, reunions, birthdays, and even a few weddings. Several local businessmen offered to set her up in a bakery, but that would have been too much for her. The Coate Family Reunions were always a high point of our year. My Dad built long tables to use for these events that were set up in our side yard under those big old maple trees. There was always a ton of food and a wonderful big crowd. We would play games and Mom's bake goods and produce would be the prizes. I think everyone had a great time. I know we did." | RITTER, Harry Edward Jr. (I13531)
|
| 3990 | This is a possible reference to an offspring of Samuels. "Married on Thursday at the Cathedral, S.S. Forte, Esq. to Elizabeth, daughter of J. Cheesman, Esq., on May 13, 1837." (F-248: BMH Magazine, V.VI, p. 213) | FORTE, Samuel (I71)
|
| 3991 | This is also one of Janet Orke's ancestral lines. Note that she and her sister, Mary, married 1st cousins. It was common in the Curry ancestral lines. | CURRY, Sarah (I10095)
|
| 3992 | This is an ancestor Jane Leiden. According to her, she has multiple Clark cousins whom are DNA matches between my William Clark and herself. She is also listed as the daughter of William Clark in at familysearch.org | CLARK, Sarah Elizabeth "Betsy" (I10138)
|
| 3993 | This is an IGI British Isles extract supposedly from the actual christening records. | UNDERWOOD, Edmond (I17423)
|
| 3994 | This is conjecture on the part of Judy Moch and myself, that the Jane Curry who married Francis Erwin according to "The History of Rockbridge County", is this Jane Curry, sister to Dr. Robert Curry. We highly suspect this because "The Hisf Pocahontas, West Virginia" states that Edward Erwin's grandmother was a sister to Dr. Robert Curry. Other sources have stated that the Erwin who married Mary Curry, Dr. Robert Curry's daughter, was the son of Francis Curry. It's enough fingers pointing in the same direction to theorize that this is the Jane Curry and Francis Erwin who married in that region at that time. | CURRY, Jane (Jenny) (I7717)
|
| 3995 | This is cousin Barbara Castrodale's ancestor. He and his wife did not have any children yet in the 1830 census where he was living next to his father in Union Twp., Miami Co., Ohio. | COPPOCK, Joseph R. (I12245)
|
| 3996 | This is cousin, Janet Orke's ancestral line. | CURRY, Mary (I10198)
|
| 3997 | This is Janet Juengling's first Calhoun ancestor whose line triangulates with my Mother. | CALHOUN, Jean "Jane" (I18235)
|
| 3998 | This is Kren Foster Montgomery's ancestral line which she believes goes back to a Thomas of Hunterdon Co., New Jersey. If this is true, we also both believe we are likely cousins. | COATES, Mary Matilda (I9550)
|
| 3999 | This is legend based upon the tradition that Joseph of Arimethia was the person who was authorized to remove Jesus from the cross according to the Bible. Some legend states that he was the Uncle to the "Virgin Mary" and great uncle to Jesus. | "Virgin" Mary Mother of Jesus (I18230)
|
| 4000 | This is one of Judi Garst Schramm's Mast ancestors. We have a tight trianglation showing that we are related via Chromosome 1with 14.9 cM's in common on average. | MAST, Veronica (I2600)
