• Notes

  Sion and family supposedly settled in Coates Bend, Cherokee Co., Alabama along with a family named Harbour about 1729 according to a history of that county. It is more likely that they settled there in 1730 after Sion's father died. He is considered the progenitor of the Coate's/Harbour branch in that area. They were listed from Kershaw Co., South Carolina. According to 1840 & 1850 Cherokee censuses, this Sion, Jr. was b. in 1805 in SC which matches Sion's Kershaw Co., SC censuses.
