• Notes

  According to various family trees on ancestry.com, the Coateses emigrated from Ireland due to religious differences. The notes we've seen say they were "Antibaptists," by which we suspect they mean Anabaptists. From Descendants of Thomas Packer, quoting a letter from family researcher Warren Packer of Evansville, Indiana, dated 27 Feb 1958: "We do know that Philip Jr. was Hannah's son. Philip Packer Jr., was born 1686 in Pa. He married in 1724 in Chester Co., Pa. to Ann Coates, daughter. of Peter Coates. She was born in Ireland, and the family came to America as the result of the 'war' against Protestants in Ireland. The Coates family was Antibaptist."
