• Notes

  He might be the Jonathan Coate who was on the Great Egg Harbor Twp., Burlington Co., NJ tax lists for 1773. If, on the other hand, he turns out to be the Jonathan Coates of Charles Twp., Philadelphia, PA, then he was the executor of thef Phillip Thomas. No relationship is stated. (C-2292E, E) There is a Jonathan Coates who received a patent for 192 acres in York Co., PA in 1770 that might apply to this Jonathan or another Jonathan of similar peerage also living in Pennsylvania (PA Patent Index) Any one of these Jonathan's could be the husband of Jane Stinson married on Nov. 7, 1771 in the Pennsylvania Archives, Series II. I think it's likely that this marriage belongs to this Jonathan if his wife Jane was married to a Stinson previous to their marriage.
