3601	Some reference to Nancy Jane birth mention Mt Airy located in Wythe County, VA In 1811, Martin Staley transferred land here to his son Valentine. A year later, his son formed the town of Mount (Mt.) Airy, sometimes referred to as Staleytown. The tract was divided into about 72 lots, including Main Street, Cross Street, and a public square. Following Valentine Staley's death in 1817, his wife and children successfully petitioned the General Assembly to sell more lots. With the establishment of a nearby railroad center at what became Rural Retreat and an attack on Mount Airy by Federal troops during the Civil War, Mount Airy ceased to exist about 1875. https://www.hmdb.org/m.asp?m=44955	Ridings, Nancy Jane (I1309)

Some researcher have Lucy and Susan Ridings as the some person and married to Reuben Standifer or Henry Cinnamon. I believe Lucy Ridings was married to Henry Cinnamon. I have no information on Susan.

3631	The 1850 census show William as being born in TN. The 1860 and 1870 census shows IN. The 1880 census shows VA.	Coffman, William M. (I174)
3632	The 1910 census shows a Stanton Schoolcraft living next to Geo and America Coffman	Schoolcraft, Edwin Monroe Stanton (I861)
3633	The date of death is from his death certificate. His gravemarker shows Oct 8, 1933. The birth certificate does not show a date of birth but it does show his age as 64 years/6 months/20 days which would resolve to 18 Mar 1869. The 1870/1880 census shows him borm in abt 1867 Asked if she remembered Henry Coffman,his granddaughter Vida Hale Pope said yes she did. She remembered him as being very kind and gentle. She could remember when she was very young sitting on his lap and him rocking her. Vida said the story of him being shot while riding horseback was not true. The family could have never afforded a horse. Henry and John Aaron Coffman worked at Bodert Mines which were closed as the depression set in. The two brothers then started working a mine in Pocket. Henry would walk from V.I.C. (a mining camp just outside of St Charles) to Pocket (guessing about 3-4 miles) everyday to work the mine. Henry died shortly after they started up the mine. Vida thought walking in the bad weather may have lead to his death, but from the cause of death on the his death certificate I wouldn't think so.	Coffman, Henry Marion (I144)
3634	The death certificate for William Coffman's brother James, shows his mother's maiden name to be Coats. Some source have the maiden name as Holt. Some trees have Jane Galloway since a William Coffman married Jane in Arkansas in 1851. Does not make sense Date: Fri, 7 Aug 1998 17:13:59 EDT Hello, I'm new to the list and looking for a ggg grandmother. Unfortunately, I only have a name and no birth or death dates. Her name is Jane Coats, she was from Tn. Her Husband's name was William Coffman or Kauffman also of Tn. One of their son's names was William Isac Coffman or Kauffman born Jun. 14, 1860 in Tn. His dod : Apr. 10, 1948. He married Sarah Jane Kearley in Va. When they moved from Va, the story says he changed his surname to Coffman. This is all I have on these relations. Would love to hear from anyone who may have info. Thank you! Diana	Coats, Jane (I294)
3635	The family name is often shown as Musser, a very common name in Smyth Co VA. But since Mercer is used most often for this branch of the family in the census and on his death record, I choose to use that	Mercer, William Mastin (I1190)
3636	The following is from a message posted to ancestry.com by John Mills of CA There are two john ridings one born in 1850 married Julia A. TINNEL one born in 1857 married Elizabeth SPARKS may be the same person John married Julia A. Tinnel on June 23, 1883 in Claiborne County, Tenn. I assume that his first wife, Elizabeth Sparks died before 1883. I am not directly related to John Ridings, only by his marriage to Elizabeth Sparks, so I don't document his second marriage. Looking for info. on John R. Ridings born 1850 possibly in Va. He married Julia A. Tindell thought to have been born in Tn. in 1871. They had the following children- John Calvin, Thomas M., David N., Martin J., Nancy, Coyett C., Letthia Viola, Ike, Sarah L., William J., Maggie E., and another child unknown. John Calvin was my great grandfather. He married Mary (Mammie) Jeffries. Looking for anyone searching for this line of Ridings or Jeffries.	Ridings, John R. (I157)

Some reference to Nancy Jane birth mention Mt Airy located in Wythe County, VA

In 1811, Martin Staley transferred land here to his son Valentine. A year later, his son formed the town of Mount (Mt.) Airy, sometimes referred to as Staleytown. The tract was divided into about 72 lots, including Main Street, Cross Street, and a public square. Following Valentine Staley's death in 1817, his wife and children successfully petitioned the General Assembly to sell more lots. With the establishment of a nearby railroad center at what became Rural Retreat and an attack on Mount Airy by Federal troops during the Civil War, Mount Airy ceased to exist about 1875.

Susan was born in Stonega, which is now part of Wise Co VA

This is not a farming community. Why live in this area in 1846?

3627

Susan's marriage to Henry Cinnamon is questionable.
The 1870 Claiborne Co TN census shows Susan Ridings still at home and a Henry Sinnamon living next door married to a Susan.
Some researcher have Lucy and Susan Ridings as the some person and married to Reuben Standifer or Henry Cinnamon.
I believe Lucy Ridings was married to Henry Cinnamon. I have no information on Susan. She was last seen on the 1870 TN census
Neither Susan nor Lucy , I believe were married to Reuben Standifer.

Note: a Reuben Standifer married Lucy Cinnamon in 1932. Lucy Ridings Cinnamon died in 1914

Schoolcraft, Edwin Monroe Stanton (I861)

3633

The date of death is from his death certificate.
His gravemarker shows Oct 8, 1933. The birth certificate does not show a date of birth but it does show his age as
64 years/6 months/20 days which would resolve to 18 Mar 1869.
The 1870/1880 census shows him borm in abt 1867

Asked if she remembered Henry Coffman,his granddaughter Vida Hale Pope said yes she did. She remembered him as being very kind and gentle. She could remember when she was very young sitting on his lap and him rocking her. Vida said the story of him being shot while riding horseback was not true. The family could have never afforded a horse.

Henry and John Aaron Coffman worked at Bodert Mines which were closed as the depression set in. The two brothers then started working a mine in Pocket. Henry would walk from V.I.C. (a mining camp just outside of St Charles) to Pocket (guessing about 3-4 miles) everyday to work the mine. Henry died shortly after they started up the mine. Vida thought walking in the bad weather may have lead to his death, but from the cause of death on the his death certificate I wouldn't think so.

Coffman, Henry Marion (I144)

The death certificate for William Coffman's brother James, shows his mother's maiden name to be Coats.

Hello,
I'm new to the list and looking for a ggg grandmother. Unfortunately, I
only have a name and no birth or death dates. Her name is Jane Coats, she was
from Tn. Her Husband's name was William Coffman or Kauffman also of Tn. One
of their son's names was William Isac Coffman or Kauffman born Jun. 14, 1860
in Tn. His dod : Apr. 10, 1948. He married Sarah Jane Kearley in Va. When
they moved from Va, the story says he changed his surname to Coffman. This is
all I have on these relations. Would love to hear from anyone who may have
info. Thank you! Diana

Coats, Jane (I294)

3635

The family name is often shown as Musser, a very common name in Smyth Co VA. But since Mercer is used most often for this branch of the family in the census and on his death record, I choose to use that

The following is from a message posted to ancestry.com by John Mills of CA

There are two john ridings one born in 1850 married Julia A. TINNEL
one born in 1857 married Elizabeth SPARKS may be the same person

John married Julia A. Tinnel on June 23, 1883 in Claiborne County, Tenn. I assume that his first wife, Elizabeth Sparks died before 1883. I am not directly related to John Ridings, only by his marriage to Elizabeth Sparks, so I don't document his second marriage.

Looking for info. on John R. Ridings born 1850 possibly in Va. He married Julia A. Tindell thought to have been born in Tn. in 1871. They had the following children- John Calvin, Thomas M., David N., Martin J., Nancy, Coyett C., Letthia Viola, Ike, Sarah L., William J., Maggie E., and another child unknown. John Calvin was my great grandfather. He married Mary (Mammie) Jeffries. Looking for anyone searching for this line of Ridings or Jeffries.
