Hello everyone and a special thanks to you Daryl and Helen for the warm welcome!
My name is Katie and I am 3X Great Grand daughter to James Duncan Coleman, born 20 July 1844 in Bourbon Co. KY.
He was reared in Edina, Knox Co. MO and married Mary A. Tibbets on 21 October 1867 at Wyoming, Kent Co. MI. Three of his five children were born while he and Mary lived at Georgetown Ottawa Co. MI. He move to Mckinney, Collin Co. TX in 1872 and moved to Colbert Bryan Co. OK (indian territory at that time) in 1894 where he owned and operated a Cotton Gin up until his death on 6 November 1925. James went by "J.D." most often and was sometimes referred to as Jim, James and here in my hometown is still referred to as "Boss Coleman".
Children from this marriage are:
Henry Coleman born 18 May 1868 in Grand Rapids MI and died 12 March 1948 at Colbert Bryan Co. OK.
Robert Coleman a.k.a. "Pook" born 22 June 1872 in Grand Rapids MI and died 6 October 1949 at Colbert Bryan Co. OK
Maud (Coleman) Parkey born 6 January 1876 and died 19 July 1918 at Colbert Bryan Co. OK and was buried at Williams Cemetary in Mckinney Collin Co. TX
Jack Coleman born 26 December 1886 and died 6 July 1970 at Madill, Marshall Co Ok, he was buried there as well.
Elsie (Coleman) Riding (My Great Grandmother) was born 25 December 1881 at Mckinney Collin Co. TX and died 15 March 1966 at Colbert Bryan Co. OK
*Unless noted those listed above are buried at "Garden of Memory" Cemetary in Colbert Bryan Co. OK
This may seem like alot of information but it has taken hours and hours of research. I still have not yet discovered his parents and siblings. I have photos with names of "colemans" that I have yet to identify. Other surnames I am researching are RIDLING, HESTILY, PENDERGRASS, SCOTT, NUNN, & WHITTEN.
I greatly appreciate any help and will gladly do lookups for Bryan Co. OK
Thank you!
Katie
