• Notes

  Her death date could be the death date usually attributed to her daughter Esther as 5/6/1736. She was definitely living in 1731. She and her husband could easily be the E.W. and S.W. on the stones in the oldest cemetery in Quakertown, NJ. That is the only information on the stones, but the initials on stones next to each other would statistically apply to them. Photos of them have been provided by Patti Sue McCrary. I now have an autosomnal DNA cousin match whom also descends from this line through our mutual ancestor Robert Overton married to Anne Gardiner helping to prove the Coate descent through this line by the name of Bonnie Scudder via 23andMe.
