  1. 2.  Helena HICKMANHelena HICKMAN Descendancy chart to this point (1.Elizabeth1) was born about 1760; and died.

    Notes:

    It is Robbie Duroblan's theory that the Joseph Coates living next to Helena Hickman's father John Hickman in South Carolina is the husband of Helena Hickman. His nickname might have been Josee Coates mentioned in some deeds of the time or her husband could be Josee Coates instead if he is not one and the same person as Joseph Coates. Pollard and Emilia Coates are mentioned in John Hickman's will dated 1811 as grandchildren and Helena Coates is listed as their mother.

    Notes:

    Eleanor might be the sister of John Hickman married to Miss Bright instead of his daughter. She received a land grant in 1787 according to a later deed of sale between her and her husband and a Mr. Barr. It is verified that when she was under the name Hickman, she did receive land in her name in Barnwell Co., South Carolina. "Hickman, Eleanor, p255, vol 18, 1787, Hickman, Eleanor, p86, vol 17, 1787."

    The deed is as follows: South Carolina Archives, State of South Carolina. "Know Ye, that for and in Confideration of 3 pounds 11/17th-- Sterling Money paid by Eleanor Hickman into the treasury for the use of this State , we grant unto the said Eleanor Hickman Her Heirs, and Assigns, a Plantation or Tract of land, containing One hundred and Thirty Seven Acres Situated in the district of Orangeburg, on the South side of South Edistos Having such shape, form and marks by a platt hereunto annexed, together with woods, trees, waters, water courses, profits, Commodities, Appurtenances and Hereditaments wheresoever there unto belonging, to have and to hold the said tract of one hundred sixty seven acres of land ,and all and singular other the premises hereby granted unto the said Eleanor Hickman her Heirs and assigns forever, in free and common soccage.

Generation: 3

  1. 5.  Pollard Hickman COATSPollard Hickman COATS Descendancy chart to this point (2.Helena2, 1.Elizabeth1) was born on 13 May 1794 in , , SC, USA; died on 5 Apr 1845 in , Holmes, MS.

    Notes:

    Pollard and Emelia are listed as grandchildren in their grandfather, John Hickman's will. Pollard married Patsy Smith and had the following children: William Duval Coates, Wiley Burton Coates, Wyatt Rankin Coates, Seleta Caroline Coates, Winston Smith Coates, Warren Glover Coates, Waverly Pinckney Coates, and Wayne S. Coates. He has matching DNA to a Gabriel Garrett Coats, b. 1801 in SC and Daniel Coats, b. 1804 in North Carolina who also lived in South Carolina. Pollard Coates moved to Holmes Co., Mississippi before he married. He is in Pike County on the 1820 census. Pollard shows up in Mississippi about the same time as Elijah and Austin Coates, whom Robbie Landry theorizes are also related. They all came from the same place in South Carolina. The way I am theorizing the breakdown, is that Elijah is older than Pollard and a step-brother to Pollard. Elijah's son Austin would be Pollard's cousin if my theory is correct.

    Pollard married Martha SMITH on 9 Jan 1816 in , Lawrence, Mississippi. Martha died in 1844. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 6.  Emelia COATSEmelia COATS Descendancy chart to this point (2.Helena2, 1.Elizabeth1) was born before 1799; and died.

    Notes:

    Daniel's DNA matches that of descendants of Pollard Coats of SC/MS and that of a Gabriel Coats of SC/North Carolina. Daniel moved onto Georgia and then Benton District, Alabama. He eventually settled in Titus Co., TX in 1860. It is Robbie Landry's theory that Daniel is a son of Joseph Jr. Coats.
