1. | ![]() Notes: Isaac was the executor for John Sr.'s will in which it becomes apparent that John Sr. lived on land adjoining Abraham Coats. It is conjecture on my part, that they are all brothers because his children have the same names. He is listed as a Brickmaker which supports him being related to the Northern Liberties families that were descendants of Joan Sisom Coates that were brickmakers. Isaac Coates and Manuel Eyre were John's executors. (C-1756) Isaac likely had quite a few more children as he could have been old enough to have children in 1735 and he still had an underage daughter when he wrote his will in 1786.

7. | ![]() ![]() Notes: William who died in Northern Liberties, in his will he names cousin Warwick Jr. Coates, son of Warwick Coats. Since all the other Williams in this branch of the family are spoken for, I am guessing that he is the son of John Sr. Coats to make him a 1st cousin to Warwick Coats, son of Warwick. Timing, place and relationship to Warwick fit these facts. His will transcription by Charlotte Coats Sierks follows: PA Will Book R, p. 329 #264 William Coate, of the Loures Keys of Northern Liberties, County of Penn, Sadler, wife Martha Coats daughter Sarah, attains to the age of eighteen years, sister Rachel Hartley, Warrick Coate as executor, signed Sept 11, 1779, witnesses Josh Caunias, Isaac Coats, Peter Thomas, probate Jan 28, 1780. If this is his will, then his son George likely died before the making of his will. It is complete conjecture on my part that the William Coats who married a Martha (Pricket) and his possible sister Mary Chinoth is the William who is the brother of John, Abraham, and Isaac. I base this theory on the following reasons. 1) Abraham also lived in Northern Liberties, a region in the city of Philadelphia. 2) Abraham had a brother William of the correct age to be this William. 3) William's wife Martha, lived in Northern Liberties according to his will. Family/Spouse: Martha PRICKET. Martha died about Jul 1793 in Northern Liberties, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
