Hi, I have been reading the Coleman queries and does anyone have any information on William G. or C. Coleman born in 1800 or June 4, 1804 in Kentucky, married on January 24, 1839 to Sarah Tindall in Shelby county, Indiana. William Coleman died on July 7, 1860 in Shelby county, Indiana and is buried in the Winchester Cemetery in Shelby county. I believe Winchester Cemetery is in Washington Township or Noble township in Shelby county, Indiana. I would love to hear from anyone who has information on William G. Coleman, his middle intials were listed as A. othertimes C. Or G. William Coleman was my great great great grandfather. Duane McKenzie.
Jane D (Dent?) Fair married Daniel Coleman June 30, 1852 in Lincoln Co KY. I have no information on this David Coleman's birth state.
Jane was the d/o of James M Fair and Mary Elizabeth May who came to KY from VA. She was sister to William Montgomery Fair and Mary "Polly" Fair. "Polly" was the oldest, born in 1800; William Montgomery Fair was born in 1807. All were born in Lincoln Co KY.
Mary "Polly" was the 3rd wife to my ggg gfather, Matthew Busby and the mother to Elizabeth Ann " Betsy Ann" Busby, born ca 1842-43 in Adair Co KY. Betsy Ann married a Major Jones. Later in life she used the name of Betty Ann Busby Jones.
Would appreciate any information and/or corrections to the above.

Would any of your Colemans have any connection to the Colemans in Lincoln Co KY in the early to mid 1800's?
I have a Daniel Coleman who married Jane D (Dent) Fair in Lincoln Co KY in the 1800's. Don't have anything else on him and he isn't shown with Jane in Census records by 1860.
Can anyone identify him? Any of your Colemans have a connection to the Fair family? Believe the Fairs were from VA before going to KY. The Fairs or the Colemans may have had a connection to a family with the surname of Austin.

The Coleman name goes back to the 1650s in Virginia and it's my understanding that's where my mother's family came from. I used to live in the Lynchburg, VA vicinity and there are a lot of Colemans around there and a town named Coleman Falls. Coleman is also a name associated with the Melungeons of Hancock County, Tennessee and there have been Coleman families there for a long time.

s for sure in West Tennessee and probably in surrounding counties. There are two different Coleman families in Carroll County. One is descended from a German whose last name was Kuhlman but changed it.

Subject: [COLEMAN] Patrick Coleman
For many years I've been at a complete standstill on the parents/siblings of
Patrick Coleman. As a matter of fact, I gave up trying. A recent post
spurred me to see if a post by me with a few facts and speculations would
help:
Patrick Coleman, born Oct 2, 1812 in TN, died about 1857-1858 in Yell Co.,
AR. Married Elizabeth Ann Boles Dec 3, 1837 in TN. I have quite a lot on my
Boles ancestors.
Their children were:
Felicia Ann (1839 TN)
Arges Margery (abt 1840)
Louisa (abt 1843/44 AR)
Abner B. (1846 Yell Co., AR)
Arnett C. (1846 Yell Co., AR)
Jenetta (1849 Yell Co., AR) (My Great-Grandmother)
Albert (abt 1852 in AR)
LaFayette (abt 1854/55 in Yell Co., AR)
Patrick served in the militia in Hickman Co., Tennessee, in 1836. In 1853 he
was appointed commissioner of the newly established Dardanelle, Arkansas
Land Office.
His father is speculated by some to have moved to Tennessee from North
Carolina.
Patrick and Elizabeth lived in Johnson County, Arkansas in 1840 and Yell
County in 1850. They moved to Arkansas from Dickson County, Tennessee.
Excerpt from the Diary of Rebecca Ann Parker (May 11, 1840 - April 17, 1906)
written on February 10, 1902 in Alexander, Erath Co., Texas:
"Mr. and Mrs. Patrick Coleman was a northerner and oh they were good people.
Sister Lydia and I did love to go of a Saturday night and play with Felicia
Ann and her sister Marge. There were two of that family living the last I
knew of them." ...(Patrick's wife was a 'northerner'.)
Note: Could Nancy A. Coleman who married Levi B. Jones in Yell Co. on 20
Aug 1846 be related to Patrick?
Note: There is a curious repetition of given names among the various
Tennessee and Arkansas Coleman families. The names of Abner, Arnett, and
Logan are often used among different families. This leads me to believe
there are connections to be made, if we could but find them. I've looked at
TN records for the period when Patrick would have lived there and after he
would have left. There are a number of records with a commonality of names.
Since only head-of-household names were used in 1840 and prior, Patrick, of
course isn't listed
Other records prior to and after Patrick left TN show families with a
repetition of names which Patrick named his children. I've been unable to
connect Patrick to any of them. I'm left with the hope that a Will, Bible
Record, Estate Settlement, etc will turn up with him named.
We must keep in mind that his name in records might be other than
"PATRICK". For example, he could be CALLED "Patrick" in our Arkansas
records but his name could actually be "James P. or John P. or something
else P. Coleman".

Just a thought. Try Mecklenburg Co Va and other counties in Va. There were
several Coleman families in Va. I will see if I have more location for you
to try. My father was born in Maury Co tn in 1868, He had not idea that his
family came from Va in earky 1800's I can't get to my FTM right now, but II
will see who all I have in my coleman family. M.E.

My Colemans came from Amelia Co. VA to Rutherford Co. TN. They seemed to have settled in Smyrna. I have a Patrick Coleman (my ggg grandfather) married his first cousin Elmina J Bone.

Do you have any information on the German Colemans? I think that is our
family line
Thank you

Subject: Re: [COLEMAN] Patrick Coleman
I can tell you this - West Tennessee is loaded with Colemans and some of
them came from counties southwest of Nashville. Hickman County borders
Williamson County, where my great-great-grandparents G.W. and D.H. Coleman
were married in 1845. They were living in Gibson County by 1860 and lived
there the rest of their lives. The Coleman name goes back to the 1650s in
Virginia and it's my understanding that's where my mother's family came
from. I used to live in the Lynchburg, VA vicinity and there are a lot of
Colemans around there and a town named Coleman Falls. Coleman is also a name
associated with the Melungeons of Hancock County, Tennessee and there have
been Coleman families there for a long time. If I'm not mistaken, Arkansas
was opened up for settlement before West Tennessee was because the land east
of the Mississippi and west of the Tennessee belonged to the Chickasaw until
the Jackson purchase in 1818. There are Colemans in Carroll, Gibson, Madison
an Haywood Countie!
s for sure in West Tennessee and probably in surrounding counties. There
are two different Coleman families in Carroll County. One is descended from
a German whose last name was Kuhlman but changed it.

Subject: [COLEMAN] Patrick Coleman
For many years I've been at a complete standstill on the parents/siblings of
Patrick Coleman. As a matter of fact, I gave up trying. A recent post
spurred me to see if a post by me with a few facts and speculations would
help:
Patrick Coleman, born Oct 2, 1812 in TN, died about 1857-1858 in Yell Co.,
AR. Married Elizabeth Ann Boles Dec 3, 1837 in TN. I have quite a lot on my
Boles ancestors.
Their children were:
Felicia Ann (1839 TN)
Arges Margery (abt 1840)
Louisa (abt 1843/44 AR)
Abner B. (1846 Yell Co., AR)
Arnett C. (1846 Yell Co., AR)
Jenetta (1849 Yell Co., AR) (My Great-Grandmother)
Albert (abt 1852 in AR)
LaFayette (abt 1854/55 in Yell Co., AR)
Patrick served in the militia in Hickman Co., Tennessee, in 1836. In 1853 he
was appointed commissioner of the newly established Dardanelle, Arkansas
Land Office.
His father is speculated by some to have moved to Tennessee from North
Carolina.
Patrick and Elizabeth lived in Johnson County, Arkansas in 1840 and Yell
County in 1850. They moved to Arkansas from Dickson County, Tennessee.
Excerpt from the Diary of Rebecca Ann Parker (May 11, 1840 - April 17, 1906)
written on February 10, 1902 in Alexander, Erath Co., Texas:
"Mr. and Mrs. Patrick Coleman was a northerner and oh they were good people.
Sister Lydia and I did love to go of a Saturday night and play with Felicia
Ann and her sister Marge. There were two of that family living the last I
knew of them." ...(Patrick's wife was a 'northerner'.)
Note: Could Nancy A. Coleman who married Levi B. Jones in Yell Co. on 20
Aug 1846 be related to Patrick?
Note: There is a curious repetition of given names among the various
Tennessee and Arkansas Coleman families. The names of Abner, Arnett, and
Logan are often used among different families. This leads me to believe
there are connections to be made, if we could but find them. I've looked at
TN records for the period when Patrick would have lived there and after he
would have left. There are a number of records with a commonality of names.
Since only head-of-household names were used in 1840 and prior, Patrick, of
course isn't listed
Other records prior to and after Patrick left TN show families with a
repetition of names which Patrick named his children. I've been unable to
connect Patrick to any of them. I'm left with the hope that a Will, Bible
Record, Estate Settlement, etc will turn up with him named.
We must keep in mind that his name in records might be other than
"PATRICK". For example, he could be CALLED "Patrick" in our Arkansas
records but his name could actually be "James P. or John P. or something
else P. Coleman".

For many years I've been at a complete standstill on the parents/siblings of
Patrick Coleman. As a matter of fact, I gave up trying. A recent post
spurred me to see if a post by me with a few facts and speculations would
help:
Patrick Coleman, born Oct 2, 1812 in TN, died about 1857-1858 in Yell Co.,
AR. Married Elizabeth Ann Boles Dec 3, 1837 in TN. I have quite a lot on my
Boles ancestors.
Their children were:
Felicia Ann (1839 TN)
Arges Margery (abt 1840)
Louisa (abt 1843/44 AR)
Abner B. (1846 Yell Co., AR)
Arnett C. (1846 Yell Co., AR)
Jenetta (1849 Yell Co., AR) (My Great-Grandmother)
Albert (abt 1852 in AR)
LaFayette (abt 1854/55 in Yell Co., AR)
Patrick served in the militia in Hickman Co., Tennessee, in 1836. In 1853 he
was appointed commissioner of the newly established Dardanelle, Arkansas
Land Office.
His father is speculated by some to have moved to Tennessee from North
Carolina.
Patrick and Elizabeth lived in Johnson County, Arkansas in 1840 and Yell
County in 1850. They moved to Arkansas from Dickson County, Tennessee.
Excerpt from the Diary of Rebecca Ann Parker (May 11, 1840 - April 17, 1906)
written on February 10, 1902 in Alexander, Erath Co., Texas:
"Mr. and Mrs. Patrick Coleman was a northerner and oh they were good people.
Sister Lydia and I did love to go of a Saturday night and play with Felicia
Ann and her sister Marge. There were two of that family living the last I
knew of them." ...(Patrick's wife was a 'northerner'.)
Note: Could Nancy A. Coleman who married Levi B. Jones in Yell Co. on 20
Aug 1846 be related to Patrick?

My great-great grandfather was George Washington Coleman, who spent most of his adult life in Gibson County in West Tennessee. All I really know about him is that he was married in Williamson County, the county south-southwest of Nashville, in 1845. By 1860 he was living in the Hope Hill Community in Gibson County. He was probably a Confederate soldier. According to what little is known about the family, his father was Daniel P. Coleman but that’s all we know. There was a Daniel Coleman who lived near Bowling Green, KY who had a son named George W. but I don’t think it’s the same one because there were a number of Colemans in Williamson County (and still are.) Does anyone have anything on Daniel P. Coleman?
