• Notes

  Thomas Coate received a land grant personally signed by President Martin Van Buren in Mercer Co., Ohio on Oct. 10, 1840. A photo copy is in my files. Thomas's Coate's son, James Coate changed the spelling of his branch of the family ts. That was to comply with a mistake in the military in the Civil War, which he repeated to obtain his pension from them. He was in an Indiana infantry. (C-2004, 2005)
