Notes - Professor Dornan theorized that Ann's niece through brother James named Ann was married to Roger Fort. Thanks to info from Bobbie Earle, I theorize that John and Elizabeth had a daughter Ann who was married to Roger Fort instead. Bobbs quite a bit of data on Ann and Roger and their dates fit perfectly if Ann is the daughter of this John and Elizabeth. She also names children Marmaduke and Joan which are common names in our family. Here are the facts that support my theory that Ann Coate is the daughter of John and Elizabeth Coate. 1) Her supposed birth year, 1673, (which comes from an LDS record) fits into this family correctly and would not have been recorded because the Quakers stopped keeping records in 1673 in the Kingsbury Episcopi meeting. 2) Both she and her husband were from the same Parish of Curry Revell, co. Somerset, ENG. 3) Their first child's name was John (after her father) 4) Her 4th child's name was Marmaduke (after John's brother) and her 5th child's name was Edith after Marmaduke's wife. If she was the youngest daughter of John and Elizabeth, b. about 1673, she would have been about 14/15 when her stepmother, Elizabeth, went to live with sister-in-law, Edith Coate who was widowed in 1687. She would have lived in her uncle Marmaduke's home possibly looking at Edith as a second mother from that time on. That is a logical reason why two of her children were named after this favorite Aunt and Uncle. Her first daughter's name is Joan which is also a common name in her Coate ancestral line. 5) Ann Coate and her husband Roger Fort raised their family in Burlington Co., NJ where related Coate cousins lived. 6) The other Ann Coate b. in 1669 to Marmaduke and Ann Coate was verified as married to William Masters. 7) John had a son James who named a daughter Ann (after his sister?) 8) James's daughter Ann, just mentioned, was born after 1691. If she was the wife of Roger Fort, b. 1669, she would have been a full generation younger than her husband and quite young to have a son in 1706. Even Professor Dornan who had obviously come across a couple named Ann Coate and Roger Fort put a question by whether the Ann Coate, d. of James, could be the wife of Roger Fort. 9) I have a triangulation with small cM segment matches for persons who descend from this Roger Fort and Ann Coate line. It's too small a triangulation for proof but certainly supports Ann as the daughter of John and Elizabeth along with this other evidence..
