Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
I don't know who the John Coates or Coats put these lists on, but it
wasn't me. There are presently 300 John Coatses in the USA, not to
mention John Coates, without ever Europe. Be aware, Rootsweb is a
partner of Ancestry.com and all these messages are posted there. I'm
sure that's the reason you don't see that many posts.
My name is John Wayne Coats. Most John Coatses use their middle initial,
just like my Dad told me to do. My Grandfather was John Webster Coats,
named after his grandfather, John Webster Coats. I'm sure this is why
James Robert Coats started signing his name James R. Coats in 1823. He
finally figured out there were a bunch of James Coatses out there.
As a list owner, I know that owner of this list can unsubscribe you. He or
she will get the bounces when they occur. Depending on the settings the
owner has set, you will be unsubscribed after a given number of bounces.

Yes, I know how to unsub/sub, but what I am saying is that it didn't work;
the email format is apparently the problem. I have subbed and unsubbed from
lists for many years now, but now, when I try it, nothing happens. So, if
doesn't work, c'est la guerre...in any event, after 28 May, my email address
will be inactivated, so someone will have to put up with the bounced
traffic.

The following is a quote from the book "The Coate, Coates, Coats family"
by Odessa Coats Collins, 1989. The following is a Court Record, not part
of the will of John Gent Coats.
NEWBERRY COURT RECORD:
15 Aug 1805: James Coats of Edgefield District to William Coats of
Newberry for $101.00, a tract of 41 acres in Newberry on waters of Bush
River called Mathew Creek, which was originally granted to Christian
Kinder for 250 acres, and by him to John Coate, deceased. Bequeached by
John Coate deceased, to his son James.
Signed 15 Aug 1805
Recorded 25 Jan 1806
Witness: J. B. Mitchell, John Coate
Now, if that doesn't put the final stitch in it, I don't know what
does. John W.
I have a Jeremiah Coats whose parents are Benjamin Coats and Anna Baker who
both died in Smith Co., TN. Jeremiah was b in TN around 1814/1817 and
married Elizabeth Klope before 1840. They were in Smith Co in 1840 when a
daughter was born and somewhere if Missouri in 1845 when a 2nd daughter was
born then lived in Johnson Co. and Williamson Co.,Ill where the rest of the
children were born and then in 1880 appears in the Hill Co., Tx census. I
don't know where or when he died.
I have a lot of missing info as I haven't been able to locate a 1850 or 1870
census or marriage license or place or time of death. Although our
Jeremiahs aren't related, maybe in your research you may have have come
across some information that might pertain to my Jeremiah? If I find any
that might pertain to yours, I'll get in touch with you.
There is an old Jeremiah Coats listed in 1810 and 1820 in Amherst, Va
census. I wonder what Coats line he belongs to? I've never heard anyone
claim him.

Looking for parents of my gggrandfather, Jeremiah Coats. The information I have on him:
JEREMIAH COATS

Yet seen too oft, familiar with her face,
We first endure, then pity, then embrace.

It seems unbelievable, but there were 3 distinct James Coatses, all born
within about 5 years of each other, who married Elizabeths. One is our
James Robert, another was James of Edgefield, and the other was James of
Kentucky. The latter was shown in the 1850 census living by himself,
while his wife Elizabeth was living with one of her daughter's family in
Indiana. Unless this is James of Edgefield. I haven't checked to see
where he was in 1850 or if he was still alive.

After doing some reading, I find that it is clearly stated that the
James mentioned in John Gent's will is James of Edgefield. His wife was
named Elizabeth Scott. This line is well documented, and is totally
different than James Robert's. Also, all those who claim to be descended
from that line as well as Marmaduke have tested R1b1, while all
descendants and relatives of James Robert have tested R1a1.
It makes no difference who wrote a letter to who, or whether or not
anyone is going to claim reparations for all that land that Boone and
Coats bargained for, or whether or not one line or the other descended
from the J&P Coats thread family or anything else. What is stated in the
above paragraph is fact and not fiction. Call me if you want.
