  • Notes 
    • He went by the name of Harry B. Coate as an adult. He was known for his astute business sense. He was the senior member of a drygoods business called Coate and Caw in the Allen building in Troy, Ohio. He ran off with his governess and moved to Chicago, IL where he was the vice-president of Cooper, Coate and Casey Co. When he left his wife with the governess, this tainted his memory in the eyes of his family, as they were quite fond of his wife. He married the governess apparently after his wife, Mary, divorced him. He had at least one daughter by his second wife. Her married name was Mrs. Gertrude Huddel. (C-370a) He and his second wife lived in Los Angeles, California where he opened another dry goods store with three surnames in the title of it too. He owned that store for 38 years and died at a ripe old age. (C-370a, 2081, & Al Coate)
