  General Notes:

John H. is in the deed records for Union Twp., Miami Co., Ohio in 1850 and 1856. He originally purchased 226 acres and later added 40 more. His property is listed in the 1871 Atlas of Miami Co., Ohio published by C.O. Titus in Union Twp. wedged between the Heirs of Aaron Coppock and Benj. Coppock. He was the first dairy farmer in the state and well respected stock dealer of his dairy cattle. By 1897 he was supplying local hotels, restaurants and the Soldiers home with the finest butter anywhere. (C-26, 1025)

In the 1850 census, John Coate is 24 years old, a farmer worth $5000 in real estate. He was living with his wife Jane, age 20 and was married within the year of the census. This census was taken in late 49 or 50 before the month of Oct. His stepmother, Eunice Cothran Coate, who is 57 years old is living with them. John and Jane were born in Ohio Eunice was born in South Carolina. In the 1860 census records, John's worth is estimated at about $14,000. He was a farmer. In the 1880 Ohio census records for Union Twp., Miami Co., Ohio, he was 55, a farmer and sick that day of disease of the bowels. He said he was born in Ohio and both his parents were born in North Carolina. The data for his family was: wife Jane C., age 51, born Ohio as well as her parents, Warren, age 24, b. OH; Ida J., daughter-in-law, age 20 b. OH as well as her parents; Loretta, age 18, b. OH; Maurie J., age 8/12, b. Sept. 1879 in OH; Rachul Coppock, age 71, Mother-in-law, b. Oh, her parents born, North Carolina; (Eluoia) Coppock, age 18, niece, Servant, born Indiana, parents born in Ohio. (C-385) His father's third wife, Eunice, also lived with them in both the 1850 and 1860 census records. John H. was living with his daughter Loretta and son-in-law, Edgar W. Yount in the 1900 census records. (C-224)

He might be the John Coate who was a dealer in groceries, wood, coal, lime, hair plaster and cement in Beers History of Miami Co. OH, though this is more likely to refer to another John, as the census records consistently list him as a farmer. (C-10) Specifically, we know for certain that he was a dairy farmer in Miami Co., Ohio.

His death date is the 24th on his death certificate and the 26th on his cemetery stone. I do not know which is correct. ^{5 14 15 16}
