General Notes: Husband - Benjamin Coe

---

The Coe family trace their ancestry back to the nobility in England.

He came from New Jersey and settled in Fawn township, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, at the time when a blockhouse was erected at what later became Springdale, to protect the white settlers from the Indians. Springdale was formerly Coe station, being named in honor of Benjamin Coe, the first settler of Fawn township.

He was a soldier in the War of 1812.
