COY, John H probably born about 1795, married Esther WILLISON, and lived in Groton, Tompkins Co, NY., till sometime in the 1840s. Esther born in Genoa, NY. about same time as husband.

Know anything about Esther's people? My Rhoda Willison married Noah Whitehouse Coffman in 1830 in OH. Have the Coffmans but not the Willisons. If you can help, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thank you. Iris

I do know of Esther's family. Rhoda was not in it. There were at least 2 other Willison families in OH On moved there from Penn and the other from MD. My Esther died in the mid 1840s in Coshocton Co, OH. The Cornelius and Jerimiah Willison family was in the Licking Co, area first and spread out from there west.

Noah's people went 1st to Licking Co., then later, Noah lived in Fairfield Co., before they moved on to Clinton Co., IA, where they died. Noah was also a minister of The United Church of the Brethren in OH. Do you know much about Cornelius or Jeremiah? Rhoda had to come from some family; she didn't just sprout there. Thank you for answering my query. Iris
