• Notes

  He is the likely grandfather of the John Coate who was born about 1738 in Muchelney. There were few Coates in this parish and they can all fit together in only the timeline presented matching first hand records. This line is from Park's boge 222 (1994 reprint). It also should be noted that these bible records do not yet match baptismal records in Somerset, England. They are publishing over 7000 new records a day at this point in time though. John had son Robert in Langport which is literally only 2 miles from Curry Rivel. He is highly likely to be a descendant of Marmaduke and Marie Somner or one of his siblings in Curry Rivel. Marmaduke and Marie had a son Henry whose name is carried down in this John's descendants.
