Robert Coleman

I’m a descendant of Robert Coleman through Lindsay Byrd Dickinson and Susan Harris Willis of Spotsylvania County , Va. The information that is listed regarding their children contains numerous errors - incorrect birth and death dates, incorrect names, incorrect birth order. It also lists only seven children when in fact there were eight, all of whom lived into adulthood, most into their 80s and 90s.

Grover Bradley

I saw your time line and the information is wrong on Grover Bradley, Becky Smithers, Mary Blondell & Norman Thomas Griffin. They have never been to Ca. in their lives. that is my Grandfather, Grandmother Aunt & Uncle.

Chapman S. Coleman

I just want to congratulate you on such a fine site. I did run across something that needs clarification, as I'd originally made a mistake with one of my ancestors when I first started doing research many years ago. I lived in Salt Lake City at the time and had visited the fine genealogy library that is there.

I had traced my ancestors back to Chapman S. Coleman, who married Mary Ann Carter of Lincoln County, Kentucky. I had run across an unpublished manuscript that had listed Chapman's parents as Meridith R. Coleman and Susan Dedman, as noted below. I then ran across an article in the Kentucky Genealogy Society (I believe) magazine that listed Chapman's parents as Covington Coleman and Lucy Day, also as noted below. It listed Mary Jane Carter as Chapman's sister, who both died on the same day.

I don't believe I had a date on the Meridith information, so I improperly made the assumption that Meridith was the father of my Chapman. The information in the genealogy magazine was from a state death roll, or something like that—coincidentally, the only year the state required that all deaths in the state need to be reported to the state, at least in that generation or time period, as near as I can remember. It may have been the only time.

Is it possible there were two Chapman Colemans who married two Mary Ann Carters, one generation apart? I know that's what you show, but then, I made the same mistake, too. That's not saying it's a mistake, but it would ease my conscience if I knew for sure there exists documentation that would show this.

Judge S. Bernard Coleman's (I think that was his name) fine book picked up where I left off in Kentucky, and his was well documented, I believe.

I'm very impressed with the work you've done putting together this website (http://colemangenealogy.ucan.us/index.htm). I can only imagine all the work that went into creating the site, let alone all the work you must have done to gather all the information together. I know how much work it took just to find what I've found on my individual line, let alone fourteen generations of lines. I applaud you. Keep up the good work.
