I know this is a long shot but thought I would give it a try. My GG Grandfather Archibald
Coatney is rumored to have died in Jefferson County, Indiana about 1875. Possibly at the
home of one of his 18 children. I know one of his sons Nashville Coatney enlisted as a
private in the 13th Indiana Inf.,co D on 6/19/1861. His residence was listed as Jefferson
County,Indiana. Nashville did not return home after the war and I do not know what
happened to him. Most of the other children lived in Scott, Clark, Decatur, Floyd, and
Harrison County areas. Archibald was known to go by the name Courtney early in his life
and Coatney in the later years. He married three times. First to Mary McIntosh about 1807
in Estill County, Kentucky. Next to Madilla McIntosh (I believe a sister of Mary McIntosh)
in January 1833. She died before 1849 in Jefferson County, Indiana. And third to Catherine
Ann Selgue on October 21, 1849. Catherine was born about 1820 a daughter of James Selgue
and died after!
1870 in Jefferson County, Indiana. If anyone has any information on this family I would
like to hear from you. Thanks in advance for your considerations. Don Coatney
