The Kentucky wills. Daniel’s 1833 Gallatin will identifies his children by name and provides for William’s guardianship. The Trimble will books preserve two Wyatt Colemans. Daniel’s son Wyatt F. named wife Martha. Sarah’s son Wyatt married Cynthia Connell and Catharine Nicholson. The two wills are only a few pages apart.

Families on both sides of the Ohio River. Reed, Sandidge, Gabbert and Coleman records follow the Kentucky households. Virgil’s probate belongs in Ripley County, Indiana. Jennings County records follow Lucy McGannon. Use residence and spouse to distinguish these families when later documents repeat names such as Wyatt and Sarah.

Sources associate both Benjamin Coleman and John Taylor with the beginnings of Corn Creek Baptist Church. Its minutes offer a way to distinguish a founding member, a visiting preacher and a regular pastor. The 1810 Henry County census has an age discrepancy for the proposed Benjamin household. County boundaries and adult children already in Kentucky complicate the migration date.

Virginia’s public service claims document Benjamin furnishing supplies. DAR identifies this patriot as A206054. Pension W6615 is the file of Henry Campbell, whose widow recalled that Benjamin had married them. A later cemetery marker assigns Benjamin a North Carolina captaincy. Establish the captain’s home, unit and associates independently before treating the two men as one.

The tree gives 27 June 1825, while a memorial gives 24 June 1825. The legacy transcription of the broken stone reads 24 June 1835 and says she was in her seventy-third year. The age is closer to 1825 if the reported 1752 birth is correct. Benjamin’s 1824 will places her alive then. The 1830 household does not identify her by name. A dated photograph or early inscription transcript could resolve the year.

Benjamin directed that Nancy, an enslaved woman, pass to his daughter Sally. He left the remaining estate for his wife’s support during her life. The probate inventory and sale account may show what happened to Nancy after his death. The wife and the daughter are both called Sally in these papers.
