Notes:
  * Dr William COON is listed as a doctor in the Birth Records of Hickory County, MO. William Coon became a physician and was a state representative from the counties of White, Jasper, Benton, and Pulaski in 1841-2, and 1845-6. He was an associate judge in the circuit court of Indiana, a farmer, and physician in the Civil War. In 1848 he moved to Missouri. [Raymond Coon]
  * I think I've figured this out. James was living with George and Elizabeth and met Elzabeth's sister, Melissa. They also have a brother, P M Blake, who may be a twin to Melissa. Their mother remarried to a man name BLUE and had at least one more child, Margaret Blue. Sarah Blue is their mother, James and George's mother-in-law.
  * I don't think anyone really knows when or where Abraham was born. I chose 1824 because I have 2 sources with an age to make it so.

If there is no SOURCE, I have no PROOF! If the source is a PERSON, the information is HEARSAY.
