  Origins
  Patriarch & Matriarch	Francis Coate           b. Abt 1588, ? Otley Parish, Yorkshire, England   (2 x Great Grandfather)  Elizabeth Barnes             d. Yes, date unknown  (Mother)
  Notes	Info about her varies greatly. I see her listed as the daughter of Ann Harrison, or Elizabeth Barnes, or Elizabeth Yate (Yates, Yeates)? I've also seen her last name as Coates. This family seens to be where the name "Hendley" originates from, which descends though the Simpsons to the Tomlinsons; note the children of Charity Courts via her second and third husbands.
