Message Board Post:
There is a Deca Coker in the home of Edward Coker also. Who is she. My family is very confused about who or Dicey Coker may have been. We only know she wass born in upper AR abt 1833-34, and came down to marry my ggg gr father (Goates) in 1852 in Pope Co AR. She is listed as 18 and he was 42 at the time of the marriage. They had 3 ch together and she disappeared bef. 1850. We do not know whether she left him, or died young. There have been some stories she may have died in childbirth, but, no proof. This would mean she died after 1858 as that is when her last know of child was born. We never found a death rec or burial for this woman either. The is much speculation if Dicey was just a nickname also, even though this is the name she married under.

Message Board Post:
Since the original posting, research has uncovered a good deal of information on Tressie Coker and has identified five of the seven children attributed to her in the 1900 census. Two of the living children noted from the census were born to Gallant and Tressie, the others from two previous marriages.
Tressie Ann was the daughter of John and Elmira (Overstreet) Blackedge. John Blackledge (son of Zacharia & Mary Blackledge), was born about 1794 and died September 11, 1871 in Jones County, Mississippi. Elmira Overstreet was born about 1809 in Georgia and died before 1870 in Jones County, Mississippi.
Tressie Ann is the spelling used on her headstone but the name is also noted in census records as Trecy and Teressa. She first married Wiley Roberson (possibly Robinson) and had a son Wiley Roberson (jr.) who was born 1863. No other information was noted regarding either Wiley Roberson.
By 1870, Tressie had married John Hodges, an apparent widower with six children. Her son Wiley Roberson, age 7, also appears in the Wayne County, MS census along with twins Eliza & William, age one. John Hodges was previously married to Mary Cynthia Blackledge, whose relationship to Tressie Blackledge, if any,is unknown but likely can be found. John was listed as 62 years of age and most likely died prior to 1877 when Tressie married Gallant C. Coker.
Gallant and Tressie were there parents of Joseph Napoleon Coker, born 1879 and Etta Leona Coker born 1882. J. Napoleon married Ella (possibly Blackledge) and had 7 children. Etta married Archie B. Walters and they had 9 children.
- - - - -
A final note from an outside researcher: The original summary included information on Gallant's reported first two marriages which was not part of my research and may contain errors. An 1870 Clarke County census appears to be this family but creates more questions than answers. While I probably did not have access to all information, I would urge Coker researchers to thoroughly analyze and share all available information on Gallant. For example, what is the origin of the name Mary Simpson? Is there any basis to name Mary as mother of Y.D. rather than Sarah? Does the 1870 Clarke County census show this family?
