William Henry Harrison & Margaret A. Reid Coffey

William was a won of James Harvey and Anna Eliza Graham Coffey, born c1838 in Indiana.  He married Margaret A. Reid on 17 Feb. 1863 in Washington Co., IN.  I have not been successful in locating their death dates or burial sites.

They had at least seven children, all except the last, Clyde M., born c1877, were born in Washington Co.  Clyde was born in Labette Co., KS.

The children were: Maurice; Mary, Zella, Hanah, Eliza, James, and Clyde.

The only successful find for those was Zella W., born 10 Aug 1867 in Salem, Washington Co., IN and died 8 Nov 1941 in Miller Co., AR.  Zella married Alvah Horace Whitmarsh, born 22 Oct 1864 in Princeton, Bureau Co., IL, on 16 Nov 1891 in Labette Co.  Alvah died 11 Nov 1923 in Miller Co., AR.

Marguerite Holman Magee*

Alvah and Zella were parents of at least one child, a daughter named Mary Marguerite Whitmarsh.  She was born 14 Jul 1892 in Texarkana, Bowie Co., TX and died there on 20 Jul 1967.  She married John Cabell Ware Holman, a son of Henry Brown and Mary Stuart Holman, born 17 Aug 1891 in Washington, Hempstead Co., AR and died in Texarkana, Bowie Co. Both are buried at State Line Cemetery, in Texarkana, Miller Co.

I know of only one child born to this union; Marguerite Holeman, born 9 Mar 1922, died 13 Oct 2008.  She married Fleet Foxworth Magee in Texarkana, Miller Co. on 23 Jun 1945.  He was born 7 Dec 1916, died 25 Apr 1986, birth and death locations not know to me.  

My interest in the Coffey family is locating the death and burial dates/places for William Henry and Margaret A. Reid Coffey.  Please contact me if you have any ideas.

Falls; and Margaret Lee Riley who married Saylor Marshall Coffey.  Saylor was a son of Jacob Morris and Mary Jane Lotts Coffey.  Jacob and Garnett were cousins many times over.

John B. & Ollie Jane Kivett Coffey

Some genealogies that I have seen claim the initial B stands for Bradley while a death certificate for one of his sons names his father as John Bradford Coffey.  I'll go with Bradford until someone with good evidence convinces me it was Bradley.

John B. Coffey

Ollie Jane Kivett

John was born on May 5, 1862 in Kentucky to Ransom and Malinda A. Weaver Coffey.  Sometime over the next 24 years John moved to Union Co., TN where he married Ollie Jane Kivett on Aug. 20, 1886.*  The couple remained in Union county at least through the first part of 1900 when they appeared there in the census.  They must have returned to KY, or perhaps did not leave before 1887, for on Feb. 5 of that year their first child, Harley Albert was born in that state.

By 1903, at least, they were in Baylor Co., TX where their eighth child, Mary Lee was born on Oct. 4 of that year.  They eventually relocated to Crosby Co., TX where they remained until sometime after 1930 when John and Ollie relocated to Lubbock, TX.  John died there on Jan. 5, 1940, preceded by Ollie on Nov. 28, 1935.  Their remains were returned to Crosby Co., TX where they were buried in the Crosbyton cemetery.

Their children were:

Harley Albert, born Feb. 5, 1887 in KY, died at Fort Bayard, Grant Co., NM on Mar. 26, 1966. Harley married Dorothy D. "Dot" Griffin in Crosbyton.  She was the daughter of Adanija and Ida M. Griffin and was born to them in Colorado on Oct. 18, 1893.  She died on Feb. 15, 1995 in San Gabriel, Los Angeles Co., CA.

Obituary, Lubbock Avalanche Journal, Feb. 7, 1995

CROSBYTON (Special) - Graveside services for Dorothy G. Coffey, 101 of San Gabriel, Calif., will be at 11 a.m. Saturday in Crosbyton Cemetery with the Rev. Les Griffin, pastor of Crosbyton´s First Baptist Church, officiating.  Burial will be under direction of Adams Funeral Home.

She died Wednesday, Feb. 15, 1995, in the San Gabriel Valley Community Hospital.

She was born Oct. 18, 1893, in Hagen, Colo. She married Harley Albert Coffey in Crosbyton. He died March 26, 1966. She moved to San Gabriel in 1980.

She was a homemaker, and she was a recording secretary for the Farm Bureau of New Mexico. She had also worked on the election boards. A son, Kenneth died in 1941.

Survivors include a daughter, Ollie Myrtle Kapitan of San Gabriel; a brother, Lloyd Griffin of El Monte, Calif.; three grandchildren; 10 great-grandchildren; and a great-great-grandchild.

Romey John, Jr.

Romey John, born Jan. 26, 1889 in Knoxville, Knox Co., TN, died Jan. 5, 1971 in Crosbyton.  He married a lady by the name of Irene O. on Mar. 26, 1915 in Crosby Co.  She was born Feb. 27, 1896 in Emma, TX** and died Jun. 26, 1986 in Redondo Beach, LA County, CA.  She and Romey had two children:  Romey, Jr., born Jan. 10, 1917 in Crosbyton and died Nov. 18,1972 in Long Beach, LA Co., CA.  Second born was Hazel Margaret or, Marguerite, born c1919 in TX.  Romey John, Irene and Romey, Jr. are all buried in the Crosbyton cemetery.

James Lonnie was born Dec. 19, 1891 in Union Co., TN and died in Melrose, Curry Co., NM in July, 1960.  He married Clara Helena Griffin, sister to Dorothy, wife of Harley Albert.  The family line between these two couples blurs a bit.  In Dorothy's obituary it is written that she had a daughter named Ollie Myrtle.  Of the eight children born to James and Clara was a daughter named Ollie M.  I have not found Harley and Dot and do not know who their children were.  I suppose it is very possible that each couple named a daughter Ollie M. or Ollie Myrtle.

The children of James and Clara were:  Verlin Albert; Ruby May; Leroy; Robert C.; John L.; Ollie M.; George H.; and Edgar L.

Following James Lonnie was a daughter, Mamie Melinda, born Jul., 1894.  No further information.

Florence Ellie, born Jan. 1, 1897 in Union Co., TN, died Apr. 1, 1957 in Crosbyton.  Florence married George Houston Strange on Oct. 9, 1918 in Ralls, Crosby Co.  He was born Nov. 13, 1894 in Tom Green Co., TX and died in Crosbyton on Apr. 19, 1981.  Florence and George had one child, a daughter Edith Jewel, born Jul. 18, 1919, died Jul. 19, 1919 in Crosbyton.  George and Florence are buried at Crosbyton and I suspect Edith Jewel is as well.

Stewart Hembree, born Oct. 21, 1898 in Union Co., died Nov. 19, 1974 in Levelland, Hockley Co., TX.  No other information.

Madie Ethel, born c1901 in TN.  No further information.
