Hello, My mother was Anna Marie Cotie. We have traced our family back to Jean Coste (Cote) 1661. We are Descendants of him. He is from Fracne and started his family in Quebec. We have many descendants in Nove Scotia and around that area. The many spellings are Cote,Cotie,Cotte. Not sure if this helps or if you are in this family line. We have several Daniel's in the tree.
