Hi,
I recently started doing family research. Last visit with my Grandmother she pulled out the Cohee family bible for me to look at.
James Cohee m. Mary Murphey 5 Sept. 1839
Their Children are:
Edward (1840-1842)
George (1851-1908) m.
Eli (1842-1935) m. Eliza Ann Taylor
Wellington (1853-1854)
Sarah (1845-1848) m. William McKey
Elizabeth (186_-1862)
Pleasant m. Margaret Medoret
Edwin m. Martha Elstron
I am related to James through Eli's daughter Pauline Cohee (1891-1940).
Eli and Eliza's other children were:
William Clem
Bamford Mack
Mary Caroline "Molly"
Minty Florence
James Valentine
Ernest Lannie
Harry Carl
Walter Forrest (Preble County, Ohio Sheriff)
Pauline
Jessie Manzella
If anyone has any information on Pleasant Cohee, or any of them for that matter I would appreciate it!
Also, there was a murder confession in the Bible. It was of a John Adkinson. At the top of the page it says "Mary C"
Basically he was drunk and hit his wife over the head killing her. The bible has both Cohee and Meeks information and I'm not sure which side it belongs to. If anyone has any idea about that one I'd love to hear it. I'm very curious as to who he is!
Thanks,
Jen Meeks
