Generation No. 1

1. JOSEPH4 COE (BENJAMIN3, ROBERT2, HENRY1)1 was born Abt. 1665 in
Jamaica,Long Island,NY1, and died 1743. He married JUDITH---1 Abt.
17031.

Notes for JOSEPH COE:
born in Jamiaca,Long Island probably about 1665, first appears on
records on 20Aug1696 when he sold to Eldered Lucas 10 acres of land in
Jamaica. (Records of Jamaica, vol. 1, pg 276). On 5Apr1707, Joseph Coe
and Samuel Higbee made a division of land they had bought of Johnathon
Whitehead. (Ibed. vol.2, pg 23.) On the rate list of Jamaica dated
4Feb1708-9, Josepf Coe was taxed 5 sh. 3d. 1q 3w. (Hist. of the
Presbyterian Church at Jamaica, p.243.) On 1May1714, Joseph Coe and
"Judah" his wife of Jamaica, for 230 lb. conveyed to Yeary Rider, a
house and 63 acres of land there, at a place called "Springfield"
(Records of Jamaica, vol.2, p.157.)
Having disposed of his homestead in Jamaica, he removed to Hanover,NJ
near Morristown,NJ and appears as a freeholder of Hanover lists in 1724
and 1727. In 1718 a Presbyterian Church was organized at Hanover,NJ, of
which Josepf Coe and wife Judith were early members; in 1733 there was
dissension in this church resulting in a large withdrawal of a large
number of it's members to form a new church in Morristown, and among the
seceders appear Josepf Coe, Joseph Coe Jr.,and Benjamin Coe. (The record
of Morristown Church, p.48) Joseph Coe was living in 1742, but no
record of his death or settlement of his estate is to be found,(1910)
He married about 1703 Judith------. No record of their family has been
preserved; doubtless they had several daughters in addition to their
sons.

In Reply to: Re: COE Family of NJ by Letha Holmes of 1228.

According to my source, identified below, your Joseph Coe appears to be
also known as "Elder Joseph Coe," great grand-son of Robert Coe, who was
born on October 26, 1596, at Thorpe-Morieux, a small rural parish in
Suffolk County, England.
"Elder Joseph Coe ... was born at Jamaica, Long Island, Dec 11, 1704,
according to a family record in possession of descendants, was taken to
New Jersey in childhood by his parents who removed thither about 1715.
He was among the seceders from the Hanover Church in 1733 who formed the
Morristown Church, of which he was elected an elder on Mar. 1,1748, and
appears on the records of the sessions to Nov. 8, 1759. He died in
Middlesex Co., N.J., Nov. 22, 1760, and on May 4, 1761, administration
of his estate was given to his only son, Joseph (5) Coe. (New Jersey
Admons., vol. G., p. 373.)

"He married about 1727, Esther ----, who died June 24, 1760.
Children born at Hanover, N.J.:
i. Ruth (5), b. Sept. 21, 1728, d. Feb. 10 1763; m. Oct. 20, 1745,
Capt.Peter Dickerson, b. at Southold, L.I. about 1726, d.May 10,

The above comes from "Robert Coe, Puritan -- His Ancestors and
Descendants 1340-1910," pp 103-4. It was written by J.Gardner Bartlett
(with help from lots of the Coes back then) and published privately in
Boston in 1911."
This book has been in my family since its publication and gets handed
down from generation to generation. I'm the 10th generation from Robert
(The Puritan); my great grandfather was George Stevens Coe, pp 227-8.
I'd love to have the time to put the information on the web, because
some of our ancestors are fascinating and there seems to be a lot of
interest in the Coe family. Did you know, for example, that there is a
Coe coat-of-arms? The story of John Coe and how he earned his knighthood
in the mid-1300's is fascinating.
I have tried to get extra copies through various book searches, but
have been unsuccessful to date. I have seen a copy in the library of the
Mormon Church in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Frankly speaking, I'm not a bug on genealogy, but this is something
that has been treasured in the family for many years and I'm glad to
have the opportunity to share some of it with you.

3. BENJAMIN5 COE (JOSEPH4, BENJAMIN3, ROBERT2, HENRY1)1 was born Abt.
1709 in Jamaica,LI,NY1, and died Abt. 1800 in Alleghany Co.,Pa. He
married RACHEL PRUDDEN1 Abt. 1735, daughter of JOSEPH PRUDDEN and JOANNA
LYON. She was born Abt. 1718 in Morristown,Morris,NJ1, and died
December 20, 1776 in Morristown,Morris,NJ 58 years old1.

Notes for BENJAMIN COE:
from; Robert Coe,Puritan 1340-1911 by Bartlett
born in Jamica,LI about 1709, went in childhood about 1715 to
Hanover,NJ, and first appears in 1733 when he was one of the suceders
from the Hanover Church who soon after organized the Presbyterian Church
of Morristown,NJ. On 8Sep1756, a corporation charter was granted to the
Morristown Church by Gov. Belcher and Benjamin Coe was named as one of
17 charter trustees, and his name appears on the records of their
meetings down to 12Sep1777 when he was dismissed to the Redstone
Presbytery in Westmoreland,(now Fayette Co) Pa.
On Dec 20,1782 Benjamin Coe registered in Westmoreland Co,Pa, a slave
named Titus who had been baptized in Morristown,NJ as a member of his
family 30Aug1767. In a rate for Huntington Township, Westmoreland Co,Pa
in 1783 Benjamin Coe Sr. was taxed for 2 horses, 2 cattle and 1 sheep.
After the Revolution Benjanin Coe crossed the Allegheny River into the
wilderness of the "indian Country", and built a stockade on the river
about 20 miles north of Pittsburg near the present town of Tarentum,
which was called "Coe's Station", his name appearing in the 1790 US
Census as located in the "Depreciation Tract" Alleghany Co,Pa., as head
of household with 5 males over 16, 4 males under 16 and 4 females. (this
enumeration evidently includes the families of his 2 sons Ebenezer Coe
and Benjamin Coe who do not appear anywhere themselves as heads of
families in that census.) The patriarch of the wilderness was then 4
score years of age and no furthur record of him has been found. (The
book was written in 1911).
As no records of the Morristown Church before 1742 are in existence,
his marriage and the baptisms of his elder children are not of record.
The baptisms of 10 children are recorded 1743-1761, and the family bible
of Aaron Williams, who married one of the daughters, Elizabeth Coe,
states she was the youngest child of 14 children.

From the 'History of the Fulton Family' by R.E.F.Linn (File Case,
DAR Library):
"The Coes were all singers, many stories coming down to us of their
triumphs in the exercise of that gift. One
Bejamin Coe, member of the Redstone Presbytery, was always counted
on to lead the singing at their meetings,
At one of the meetings of the Presbytery, a rumpus was narrowly
averted when Dr. West, a loud-mouthed
bellower burst in, before Mr. Coe could begin, and raised the
tune!.
"At a meeting, which Miss Coe attended, the whole congregation quit
singing and she found herself singing alone,
all were listening to her lovely voice. My earliest recollections
are of Ben Coe Critchlow's singing classes."
