• Notes

  William died young and unmarried according to most sources. However, he is also one of the strong (adult) sons listed in a poem about Moses' children, so his early death might simply apply to a death earlier than the times expected. Garys of Oregon once listed this William as the one who wrote his will on Jun 1, 1783 and then died on June 15, 1783 in Camden Co., South Carolina. He was the husband of Frances. Although the ancestry of William, husband of Frances, is not yet solidly proven, he being the son of Moses and Susannah is just one of the possible lines of his ascent. (C-1656) Big John is also theorized by some to be the son of this William, born between 1712 and 1724. (Jack Coats book) We know by YDNA that Big John is NOT the son of William and Frances Coats.
