I am seeking the parents of John COLEMAN (or COLMAN, COALMAN, etc.), b. 1805 or 1806 in Ohio (county unknown), and I am interested in learning more about the family of Julias COLEMAN who lived in Licking Co., OH in 1820 and had a male child 10 to 15 years old in his household. John COLEMAN (b. 1805/1806) m. ca. 1825 Mary COOPER, b. ca. 1805 Baltimore, MD. They lived in Guernsey Co., OH from at least 1826 to 1837 when they removed to Rockingham, Scott Co., IA. John and Mary's known children and birth years were: James (1826), Andrew (1828), Margaret (1836), John H.S. (1840), Egbert (1842), and Thomas C. (1844). Mary COOPER had at least one sibling, Thomas COOPER, b. ca. 1798 in MD, who lived in Guernsey Co., OH and removed to Scott Co., IA in the mid-1840s. Any help greatly appreciated.
