Well, here goes...this is just for the surname Coate, Coates, 
Coats...but I've gotten my line back to Newberry SC on Kings 
Creek...William Coats, with his son Barton Coats acting as executor when 
they sold William's 200 acres on Kings Creek in about hmmmm, 
1794....we're looking now for the Coats connections and groups in 
SC...copies of the documents are in the Coats Family Archive...

There is also some research and some deeds where the Coats name is 
mentioned...documents can be downloaded for those doing research...
