COATE, William ¹

  General Notes:

This William is listed as the son of John and Esther in a timeline by Gary Coats. However, I have seen no other evidence that he is their son. There is a William who dies in 1797 in Hunterdon Co., NJ that could just as easily be a son of this John and Esther, although that is conjecture on my part too.

This William could be the William who married Leanah Lowe on Sep. 13, 1781 in Huntderdon Co., NJ. He could be the William who married Mary and had William, Warwick and Rebecca from 1776-1780 or the William who married Jane and had Susanna, (1776), William (1778) and Mary (1780) or the William who with wife Margaret, had daughter Sarah on Dec. 15, 1776. All of these events took place in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (C-1666)

There are also other marriages somewhere in PA between a William and Susannah Loupler on Nov 2, 1762, and a William and a Jane Dupice on May 11, 1775. (C-1677)

There is a William who has his estate inventoried in 1822 in Burlington Co., NJ.

  Noted events in his life were:

• birth2 (conflicting), Nov 11, 1740. ³
