Message Board Post:
Does anyone have a definitive source for information on the wives (4) and children of Asahel Coate? Asahel was the son of Daniel Coate and Sarah Mills, b ca 1784. His death date is often given as 16 Mar, 1815, but this date is taken from the headstone of his wife, Mary (died at the age of 34.8.7). Asahel's parents, Daniel and Sarah , his brother, Rev Michael Coate, and several of Asahel's wives are buried in the Old Methodist Burying Ground, Lumberton, Burlington, NJ.
To make our DNA project really work....
Please, Please, Please, Please, Please consider submitting a DNA sample,
even if you know that one of the samples being tested is your line...
The larger the cross section the better able to sort all these early
families...
Ladies, it's your male Coate, Coates, Coats cousins, uncles and brothers we
need...
I really do think that in time, even the old family genealogies are going to
come into question, so I also encourage you to gather and use original
records to document your lines...
We have an opportunity here to really document the Coate, Coates, Coats
family so let's do it...<g>...(I don't have stock in Nike)
Our great great great grandkids will have a much easier time finding their
family if we do....not to mention, what if you are a grand daughter and the
only male Coate, Coates, Coats was your great great great great grandfather
and her line is now in question and there is no DNA testing for her line...
Please consider it...the costs of the test kits compared to what I know some
of you have paid for books and records is really minimal...
