• Notes

  According to Margaret Bowen, Jesse Coate was born June 1, 1788 instead of the date I've listed, but Hinshaw gives his birth date as 1m 3d 1788. Jesse's wife, Mary, was a relative of President Andrew Johnson. They had 8 children. He had notd to Ohio in 1804 with his father as his residence is listed in Nov. 13, 1806 as South Carolina when he bought 160 acres in Newton Twp., Miami Co., Ohio. He forfeited this land before living on it. He had moved to Miami Co., Ohio by the time he married in 1808. He was listed as living in Newton Twp., Miami Co., OH in the 1827 tax lists near his brothers, James, John, and William. (C-55) He is listed with a wife named Sally in an 1826 deed in Miami County where he and his brothers are selling land they owned jointly to Moses Kelly. All his siblings have known spouses. However, she signs her name as Polly Coate on this deed which is the normal nickname for Mary. The deed was transcribed by a courthouse officiate into the deed book and maybe they made an error on her name of Sarah. Jesse wrote his will July 5, 1837. (C-27, 422, 644, E)
