Glen, I am very happy to have a reply from you... I have also read Christine's reply as to wondering who I am.... There is not much mystery about it... I am the nephew of Charles Fraklin Coker, who is the son of Franklin Henry Coker, the son of Henry Coker who was a son of John Coker... Born 1830 and married Adelaide Calame.... My uncle asked me to do a little research for him and I found quite a bit on the Peale line, but when I got to John's father I hit a brick wall.... Do you have any idea where John's father "Hubert" came from in England???? My uncle said that he went back to England and might have gone down with the ship ???? This is the real mystery........

Hello cousin Glenn, I have been looking for you and your purple cadillac. As you know Charles was my father, born august 9, 1901 in the back of the post office in Sutherland, Ne. His mother Alverda Peale Coker was the postmistress.

I'm sorry, but none of these names are found in my line of Cokers. But there are so many and seems that they scattered over Texas and Oklahoma. My line of Cokers were John Joseph Coker,son William M. Coker,William's son John Vance Coker and his son James Wesley Coker, my father.
William ended up in Yantis,Wood County, Texas. There are a lot of Coker's buried here and the surrounding area. If I can help out any way, get in touch with me .

James Boyce McCuen, Sr, born ca. 1804 married Matilda Coker, born 12/27/1805 and they had at least 2 children: James Boyce, Jr. born in 1844 and Nancy Caroline, born in 1846. Nancy married Milton Moseley Manly in 1865 and James Boyce, Jr. married Catherine (Katie) Davenport in 1866. James and Katie had many children, one of whom was my great grandfather, Jesse, who died in a mill accident. Please let me know if you have some specific information to help me trace Katie Davenport and Matilda Coker back a little. I have much more information on the McCuens but need more regarding both of the James Boyce McCuens. Thank you for your assistance.

My ggg grandfather, James Boyce McCuen, Sr. of Laurens Co. married a Matilda Coker in the early 1800's. Matilda's mother was believed to be Polly though Matilda may have been adopted or fathered by someone other than Polly's husband, Mr. Coker (unknown first name). Can you let me know is Matilda or Polly appear to tie into your line of Laurens Co. Cokers? Thank you for your assistance.

Issac Coker is my ggg-grandfather. He left Elbert County in the 1820's,
along with all of his sons -- James, Elisha, Henry, John and William.
I don't think your James F. Coker is a grandson of Issac. He is probably
the grandson of one of Issac's brothers -- Abraham, Jacob or Malachi. I'm
pretty sure he is not related to Abraham, as his two sons moved to Kentucky,
so your most likely suspects are Jacob and Malachi.
Issac Coker did have a grandson named James F. Coker. He was my
great-grandfather (a son of Henry Coker). He was born in Upson County, GA
in 1836 and lived in Sumter County, GA from 1842 until his death in 1899.
He was in the 11th Georgia Artillery Battalion, CSA.
I don't have my records handy, but I think Jacob Coker may have had a
grandson named James who was the son of his son Newell. There are a bunch
of Jacob Coker descendants out there who are on this list, so they should be
able to help.

Hi Elizabeth,
Also note that David Crumpton & Benjamin Davenport also patented land in the
same township, Sec 34 in 1886. They had homesteaded at some earlier date.
William Crumpton first patented land in this township in 1835. Frances Coker
married Willis Davenport in Greenville Co, SC. The Davenports and Crumptons
were next door neighbors in Greenville Co. Frances Coker is thought to be a
sister of William Coker.

This may help someone regarding the Bibb County, AL William Coker and
wife, Jemima. Record located Bibb CH: "Direct Index to Conveyances of
Real Estate", Book G, Page 506 - Jemima and William C. Coker granted
(sold) to Jared Coal Co. 30 April 1853. Bibb County Tract Book shows the
land sold by Wm. C. and Jemima Coker to be described as follows: E 1/2
of NW 1/4, Sec. 30, Twp 23, R 12E; and NE 1/4 of SE 1/4, Sec. 25, Twp
23, R 11E. The initial "C" may be something new and the land sale may be
a clue as to when William and Jemima left Bibb. They have not been
located on Bibb US Census for 1860. Elizabeth Jones

Hi Dwight,
>From my notes: The William Coker, son of Thomas Coker & Sarah Clark, born 25
May, 1786, is the William B Coker who married Lennah Brazeal, daughter of
Joel Brazeal. This William also lived in Bibb Co, AL, at the same time as
the other William and Jemina. Wm B is later found in Monroe Co, MS. This Wm
B and his father Thomas are found earlier in Pendleton Co, SC.
Lennah Brazeal's father was Joel Brazeal who made his will in Jefferson Co,
AL, and clearly identifies his daughter Lennah Brazeal. Wm B and Lennah had
a son Joel.
Because of mispellings in the census records of Bibb Co I believe it is
possible for people to miss the two William Cokers there and it is very easy
to associate the adult children with the wrong parent. I believe it takes a
careful study of marriages and next door neighbors to sort the children out.
Best regards,
Stan
Pat,
My best guess is that William was the son of Joseph Coker, one of the "three
brothers of Burke Co, NC." Joseph was later found in Greenville Co, SC,
after 1800. Joseph was preceded their by his nephews, Leonarrd, William &
Charles and many neighbors that had lived along the Johns River in Burke Co,
NC.
Regards,
Stan
Hi Dwight;
The info on AP & LF as sons of William & Jemina is mine. I feel very
comfortable that is correct and have the records to support that conclusion.
Dan Crumpton and I corresponded years ago and we have no conflict over this
issue.
If you have records that are in conflict with this you may want to post them.
Best regards,
Stan Coker
