Subject: Coates Family History
Date: Thu, 23 Sep 2004 08:23:30 -0700
Hi, Cousin! In looking at the wonderful site for the Moses Coates family, I
believe that I have one to add. I was looking under Amy Coates 5, Issac 4,
Sam 3, Moses 2, Thomas 1. You show that Amy Coates and Mahlon Preston had
one son. I also show a daughter named Zilla Preston, b. 9-4-1809, married
Milton Cooper 2-17-1836, resided in Lancaster Co, PA, moved to Minneapolis
in 1857, died 2-22-1879. This information comes from my husband's uncle,
Coates Preston Bull, Jr. who was the great-grandson of Zilla Preston. He,
obviously traced his name back to Zilla's parents, Mahlon Preston and Amy
Coates.
Thank you again for your wonderful site. I wish you had one for all our
names!!
Sincerely,
Mary Maley Bull (Mrs. Steven Tremaine Bull)
Coats, Homer Tipton Coats, 85 year old retired farer, died at his home at
Smartts January 6, after an illness of a week. funeral rites were held the
following day at 1pm at the Smartt memorial Presbyterian Church with Rev
Geddes Orman officiating. Burial was in Bethlehem cemetery.
The deceased, a native of Kirklin county, Indiana, was born November 22,
1864 and was a son of Elijah Coats and Rachel Pursefull Coats. He was
married to Miss Mary Rayburn, who survives, and was a member of the
Methodist Church. Besides his wife, Mr. Coats, is survived by one daughter,
Mrs. Eda M. Sanders, Topeka, Kans, and one son, Kenneth H. Coats, also one
sister. Arrangements were by High's.

We have one DNA upgrade to 37 marker waiting to be returned for Gab's
group...
We also have a new 37 marker test just ordered today for Gab's group or
thought to be Gab's group....
We had an additional $125.00 donated to the DNA project fund...and the 37
marker test was $231.00...that includes $2.00 postage...
So the balance in the DNA project fund is now:
Total: $26.09
Remember, is you are on this list and your surname is Coate, Coates or Coats
or a variation, we'd like you to join our DNA project...
I've also been scouting for a Courts surname male to see if we can find out
about that line, if it does match any of our group....

Date: Sun, 19 Sep 2004 11:12:32 -0400
I have posted several times on my search for the paternal lineage of my
grandfather M.L. Crowley. I mentioned recently a perfect 12 marker match
with a desendant of the Peeples family, with which my great-grandmother had
considerable interaction. Yesterday I learned that the match held up
perfectly out to 37 markers, which I feel effectively proves that my great
grandfather was one of this family. This, after a 25 year search, would have
been impossible without DNA testing.
Should have a copy of the photo and family history behind it coming
soon....:)

I am descended from Rev William Coats through his Son-In-Law Matthew Agee.
Have been perusing the Coats website and am quite impressed with it. It has
been a great help to me so far in researching the Coats/Agee families.
I have a picture of William O. Agee, son of the above Matthew agee.
However, there is some mystery concerning it. It supposedly is a picture
(tintype) of Wlm O., but the resemblance to Huff D. Coats is striking. I
will be glad to pass a copy of the photo along, and would appreciate any
comments you or other Coats researchers might have on its true
identification. Can also supply the "family story" concerning it's
identification as a picture of William O. Agee.
I could also help with the family line starting with Matthew Agee if anyone
is interested.
Thanks, Earl J. Agee, Bartlesville, OK
A short history lesson on the privilege of voting...
The women were innocent and defenseless. And by the end of the night,
they were barely alive. Forty prison guards wielding clubs and their
warden's blessing went on a rampage against the 33 women wrongly
convicted of "obstructing sidewalk traffic."
They beat Lucy Burn, chained her hands to the cell bars above her head
and left her hanging for the night, bleeding and gasping for air. They
hurled Dora Lewis into a dark cell, smashed her head against an iron bed
and knocked her out cold. Her cellmate, Alice Cosu, thought Lewis was
dead and suffered a heart attack. Additional affidavits describe the
guards grabbing, dragging, beating, choking, slamming, pinching,
twisting and kicking the women.
Thus unfolded the "Night of Terror" on Nov. 15, 1917, when the warden at
the Occoquan Workhouse in Virginia ordered his guards to teach a lesson
to the suffragists imprisoned there! because they dared to picket
Woodrow Wilson's White House for the right to vote.
For weeks, the women's only water came from an open pail. Their
food--all of it colorless slop--was infested with worms. When one of the
leaders, Alice Paul, embarked on a hunger strike, they tied her to a
chair, forced a tube down her throat and poured liquid into her until
she vomited. She was tortured like this for weeks until word was
smuggled out to the press.
So, refresh my memory. Some women won't vote this year because--why,
exactly? We have carpool duties? We have to get to work? Our vote
doesn't
matter? It's raining?
Last week, I went to a sparsely attended screening of HBO's new movie
Iron Jawed Angels." It is a graphic depiction of the battle these women
waged so that I could pull the curtain at the polling booth and have my
say. I am ashamed to say I needed the reminder.
All these years later, voter registration is still my passion. But the
actual act of voting had become less personal for me, more rote.
Frankly, voting often felt more like an obligation than a privilege.
Sometimes it was inconvenient. My friend Wendy, who is my age and
studied women's history, saw the HBO movie, too. When she stopped by my
desk to talk about it, she looked angry. She was--with herself. "One
thought kept coming back to me as I watched that movie," she said. "What
would those women think of the way I use--or don't use--my right to
vote? All of us take it for granted now, not just younger women, but
those of us who did seek to learn." The right to vote, she said, had
become valuable to her "all over again."
HBO will run the movie periodically before releasing it on video and
DVD. I wish all history, social studies and government teachers would
include the movie in their curriculum. I want it shown on Bunko night,
too, and anywhere else women gather. I realize this isn't our usual idea
of socializing, but we are not voting in the numbers that we should be,
and I think a little shock therapy is in order.
It is jarring to watch Woodrow Wilson and his cronies try to persuade a
psychiatrist to declare Alice Paul insane so that she could be
permanently institutionalized. And it is inspiring to watch the doctor
refuse. Alice Paul was strong, he said, and brave. That didn't make her
crazy. The doctor admonished the men:
"Courage in women is often mistaken for insanity."
Please pass this on to all the women you know. We need to get out and
vote and use this right that was fought so hard for by these very
courageous women.

First I was going thru some old e-mails from 1999 and found one that said
Elijah and William Coats paid taxes on land in CLARKE MISSISSIPPI in 1813
This William is still in Clarke Mississippi on the 1816 Census but, Elijah
Coats is in Wilkinson County,Ms.
Later in Census there is a Madison hat owns land in Clarke
County,Ms.Probably one of William's sons.
I am wondering if this William can be a brother to Elijah and Sion L. You
know we suspected he had a brother William . Presumed dead since he went
missing.
Also, I found in records where there is a slew of Coats that lived on the
Edisto River Orangburg,SC (Barnwell)
You know that is where John Hickman (Pollards grandfather lived) Joseph
Coates lived there and so did Elijah and Elanor Hickman and Joseph and
Helena Coates.
Here is the group I'm talking about...
I hope it helps us find Gabe..
This is what I sent to the list....
Char,
I believe that Elijah Coats,Joseph,William and Sion L. belong to this group
of Coats some how.
Pollard H. Coates grandfather John Hickman and Elijah Coates wife Elander
Hickman had land on the Edisto River.
Elijah Coates and William Coates are in Mississippi before 1813. They paid
taxes in CLARKE COUNTY ,MS. in 1812. Sion L. later came to Mississippi.
This is from Coates Archives: What say yea?
William Coats wife Mary lease for a year to John McQueen (some of the same
parties from William Coats wife Mary Green Coats deed) - Charles Town -
Collecton County (three generations named in this group); (this area is in
present day Orangeburg County, SC); 1773 - William Coats, Esq - plat, grant,
memorial - north side Edisto River - all sides vacant - Berkley County;
1773 - William Coats, Esq - plat - Charles Town; 1774 - James Coats -
memorial of Paul Usey - Berkley County - this land is on the Edisto River;
1775 - James Coats joins Paul Usey land in a 1775 plat- N. Side of Edisto
River in Berkley County (the Edisto River runs through Orangeburg County,
there is a North Fork and I think South Fork, or the South Fork is
considered a continuation of the Edisto River, but there is a North Fork,
but this plat seems to indicate that this land was located on the north side
of the Edisto River not necessarily the North Fork of the Edisto River) (in
the will index for Charlesto!
n, there is an entry for a William and Mary will - however an examination of
that entry shows, that it is the will of William Coats with no mention who
his wife and children are - so where the name of his wife came from for the
index purposes is unknown); 1780 - William Coats c1780 - Will - requests to
be buried at Philips Church, Ward or Yard Charles Town near as possible to
his dear wife and children but does not name them; he was age 50; his estate
went to George Saxly, Esq (could be Saxby)- Charles Town (this is the
William Coats who in the Charleston will index is listed as William and Mary
Coats - however, this document does not indicate who his wife and children
were and may not be the same William Coats married to Mary Green - no clue
how they came up with William and Mary Coats for the index and then again
looking at who he left his estate to, George Saxby, who was his brother in
law mentioned in the 1760 deed above - so very likely could be the William
who was marr!
ied to Mary Green - note his age of death as 50 and it appears from the will
his wife and children were deceased prior to his death in about 1780 - we
know nothing about the James Coats in the same approximate area)
Char,
I believe that Elijah Coats,Joseph,William and Sion L. belong to this group of Coats some how.
Pollard H. Coates grandfather John Hickman and Elijah Coates wife Elander Hickman had land on the Edisto River.
Elijah Coates and William Coates are in Mississippi before 1812. The paid taxes in CLARKE COUNTY ,MS. in 1812. Sion L. followed.
This is from Coates Archives: What say yea?
