• Notes

  Henry lived in Sterbridge (Hambridge), Curry Revell, when he married Anny Cary in 1700. According to Gary W. Coats of Portland, OR, he came with his brother James to America sometime after his father, John and brother Samuel came over. He appears to be the Henry Coate that is in the Quaker Monthly Meeting Minutes, book 2 held at 20 different locations in Somerset Co., England from 1692 till 1723. Henry first appears in them a couple times in 1692. His next appearance in 1696, then in 1700 when he requests marriage to Ann Cary. He is consistently in the meetings from 1702 on till the end of the minute book in 1723. He is the only Henry I can find in this family of the correct age to account for the Henry who is oft in the Quaker Meeting records during this time frame. (C-1347, 1542) It is possible that Henry had a second wife named Deborah as I have a DNA cousin match to a descendant of John's son Henry married to a Deborah - at least that's where he believes his Henry Coate fits in. He likely visited family in America as accounted for by the Henry Coate witnessing his brother James's daughter Mary's wedding to Edmund Sands on Oct. 10, 1720. He was absent from Somerset Quaker records from the 8mo 1719 till the end of the 12mo 1720/21 supporting this. The 12mo 1720/1721 is Feb. 1721. It's also possible that Henry is a son of James that witnesses the wedding. James did not name all of his children in his will, so we don't know them all. We do not know where he died and could have been a Henry Coate in the American colonies after 1723. He might have had children that emigrated to the colonies also. This remains to be seen. He also might have been the Henry who died in Curry Rivel on 26 Nov 1727. He was an adult. Only the adult males on this page were not named with their relatives which is unfortunate for us.
