**PLEASE NOTE: In some records the name is spelled, McKay or McKoy orMcKey. Joseph signed his name, Joseph McCoy on the consent for hisdaughter with the little "c" in the air with a dot or period under it. He had excellent pen man ship handwriting in English, so he must havebeen learned. His sentence structure was superb. He had to have hadsome formal schooling at one time or another.

Joseph Wright was hisson-in-law, and had one child Willis, when he came to the county, whois now a resident of Coshocton. Both were from Virginia. Mr. Wrightlived with his father-in-law one year, then moved further up the creekto lot 3, where he lived during the remainder of his life. Probablyno one in the township was more prominent than he.

1810 - The 1810 Federal Census Records for Fauquier County, Virginiado not show a Joseph Washington McCoy as being listed in the index.There are no available census records for this year from AugustaCounty, Virginia. So, we may assume that Joseph, with his family,left Virginia for Ohio prior to 1810. There are no Federal CensusRecords for Augusta and surrounding counties due to the records beingburned during the War of 1812. However, there are a few tax recordsfor that time period, but not complete records.
1820 - The 1820 Federal Census Records for Coshocton County,Washington Township, Ohio does show a Joseph McCoy senior and a JosephMcCoy junior with a Henry McCoy, and a Samuel McCoy as heads ofhouseholds in the same area along with Norris, Graves, Taylor, andSlaughter families. (A partial copy of the 1820 Census for CoshoctonCounty, Ohio with the McCoy's listed, is in the research section ofthe McCoy Family Volume.)

Source: Book Joseph Washington McCoy 1766-1840 of Coshocton County,Ohio His Descendants and Related Families by B. Isabel Lockard, (JWMBk.) Coshocton Public Library Coshocton, Ohio 43812 Originally, theinformation as to the book's existence came to the attention of thecompiler through an e-mail message. Then another researcher (KandaceRichardson of Ohio) in the family sent copies in 2004 from the book ofthe family line of Joseph Washington Jr. McCoy from the CoshoctonLibrary. A copy of the book then was obtained by contacting theauthor as listed. A copy of the book may be purchased through theauthor, B. Isabel Lockard at 32 Jamestown Road, Charlestown, SouthCarolina 29407-7526 by mail post. (Michael Dean McCoy II JR. has asigned copy of the book by the auther B. Isabel Lockard. It wasreceived by Michael on August 24, 2004 per the postal service.) pg.1, 1.1 states,"He died from injuries inflicted by one of his ownhorses (Hunt, 1876, p. 36)." "Hunt, Wm. E. 1876 Historicalcollections of Coshocton County, 1764-1876, reprinted 1975, CoshoctonCounty Bicentennial commission." The death date year has been aseither 1840-1842 in a couple of resources, however his will indicatesthat the date is actually 1840.
According to B. Isabel Lockard's book, p.1, It is stated that, "Joseph and Mildred Amelia McCoy and their family arrived in CoshoctonCounty, Ohio , on Christmas Eve., 1806. They located first inZanesville, Muskingum County, then settled in the SouthWest corner ofVirginia Twp., Sect. 25." However, the land index record shows Josephpurchasing the Sect. 23 as seen below. There may be more land hepurchased as did his father John McCoy over a period of years.

1806 - IN 1806, JOSEPH W. MCCOY SR. WOULD BE 40 YEARS OLD WHEN ALL OFTHEM MOVED TO OHIO, AND IF JOHN MCCOY WERE STILL LIVING HE WOULD BE 80SOME YEARS OLD. AT THIS POINT IN TIME I HAVE NO CONFIRMATION THATJOHN MCCOY ACTUALLY DIED EARLIER, SO THIS SHOULD BE KEPT IN MIND.

1787 - "On the 1787 state census for VA, there is listed as 21 yearsold in Fauquier Co. The person listed as "charged with his tax" isJoseph Slaughter. This would, to my understanding, be the man he isworking for or a partner of some sort. Joseph Slaughter is the fatherof Tacy Slaughter who married John Joseph McCoy, the son of JosephWashington McCoy.

1793 - From correspondence with Anna Gerhart Kier:
"On September 29, 1793, the Rev. Denny Fairfax leased 456 acres inFauquier County to Joseph McKoy of Fauquier County. The parcel was lotNo. 130, part of the Manor of Leeds, and the lease was for the"natural lives of him said Joseph, James and Betsey his children".Other references to Joseph in Fauquier County were the 1787 PersonalProperty Tax Lists where he was counted the same day (March 15) asJohn McCoy, Joseph Slaughter, and Joseph Williams. It was noted thatJoseph McCoy was16-21 years of age and that Joseph Slaughter wascharged with his tax. On the previous day were listed William Wrightand William Wright, Jr. Two days later Samuel Taylor and George Taylorwere visited. At the 1800 Tax List, Joseph McCoy, in Pickett'sdistrict, was charged for one free tithable and three horses. JosephMcCoy gave consent at Fauquier County for his daughter, Elizabeth, tomarry Joseph Wright 26 Dec. 1803."
The following is from "The Historical Record of the Knisely-Wolf andNorris-McCoy Families" by J.C. Knisely (1923):
"Joseph McCoy, Sr. was born January 15, 1766, probably in Virginia,and it is known who his first wife was except that her given name wasMilly. Neither is it known when she was born or died.
"This Mr. McCoy and his first wife, with their family, came fromRockingham County, Virginia, to Muskingdom County, Ohio, and settledin the wilderness very early in the nineteenth century, and lived onthis farm until his death."
[The author then lists the children of Joseph and his two wives.]
"...Joseph McCoy was hurt while handling some colts in his barn, andhe died two days later from the injury, his death being sometime about1840 or 1842, reckoning from the fact that he died about two yearsbefore my Grandfather Norris [Knisely was the grandson of WilliamNorris, Jr. who married Margaret McCoy] left Ohio. Aunt Martha Smith,from memory, thinks he was about 84 years old when he died, butaccording to this and his date of birth, he was only about 75 or 76years old at the date of his death."

From "The 1985 History of Coshocton County, Ohio" (Taylor Publishin,1985); this portion from the early founders of Virginia Twp."
"Other early settlers were Joseph Wright and his father-in-law, JosephMcCoy, 1806; James Norris, 1807; and his brother, Joseph, Daniel,William and his father, William, Sr., in 1806. All of the above camefrom Virginia."

Following Millie's death, Joseph married Nancy Norris, the sister ofhis sons-in-law.

On the 1820 US Census for Washington Twp., Coshocton, OH (p.31) JosephMcCoy, Sr. is listed as a head of household. There are 5 people in thehome, one working in agriculture. Males: Under 10 = 1, 10-16 = 1, Over45 = 1(Joseph). Females: Under 10 = 1, 10-16 = 1, Over 45 = 1(Millie).
Joseph, Jr. is living next door, and there are a number of otherMcCoys and Norrises living in the direct vicinity.

On the 1830 US Census for Virgnia Twp., Coshocton Co., OH (p. 012)Joseph and family are listed. Those in the home are as follows. Males:5-10 = 1, 10-15 = 1, 15-20 = 3, 60-70 = 1 (Joseph). Females: 5-10 = 1,10-15 = 2, 15-20 = 1, 30-40 (Joseph's 2nd wife, Nancy Norris).

On the 1840 US Census for Virginia Twp., Coshocton there is a JosephMcCoy listed in Virginia Twp., Coshocton Co., OH (p. 353). In the homethere is one male 15-20, one male 70-80, one female 5-10, one female15-20, and one female 40-50.

The will of Joseph McCoy was written on Feb. 29, 1840, and probated onFeb. 4, 1841. This is its transcript:
"Joseph McCoy's Will. Joseph McCoy, deceased. Will, probate, & court.The State of Ohio, Coshocton county, afs. Called Court of Common Pleasto wit on the fourth day of February Ann Domine, eighteen hundred andforty-one.
"Be it remembered that, now, to wit on the day and year aforesaid, thelast will and testament of Joseph McCoy late of Coshocton Countydeceased was this day produced in writing, and Joseph McMorris andAndrew Walker, two credible witnesses thereunto being in open court,were duly sworn and severally examined, and whose testimony was takenin writing. Signed and duly filed, and it appearing to the court fromthe above testimony of said witnesses that the said last will andtestament was duly executed, that the testator at the time ofexecuting the same, was of full age of sound mind and memory and notunder any restraint. It is by the court ordered that said last willand testament, together with the proof thereof be recorded by theclerk of the court and that letters testamentary, with a copy of thesaid will annexed, be issued to Daniel McCoy, one of the executorsnamed therein (Joseph Wright the other executor named therein havingdeclined to serve). Whereupon the said Daniel McCoy appeared in opencourt and accepted said appointment. Thereupon it is ordered by theCourt that he give bond in the sum of Five thousand dollars,conditioned as the law directs. Daniel Norris, William Norris, JohnMcCoy, Samuel McCoy, Alexander McCoy, James Graves & Joseph Wright areaccepted as securities; and Newman Smith, Albert Wright and Hiram Darrare appointed to appraise the property of said estate.
"Which said will together with the proof thereof reads as follows:
'In the name of the benevolent Father of All, I Joseph McCoy of thecounty of Coshocton in the State of Ohio do make and publish this mylast will and testament.
'First. It is my wish and will that my wife Nancy at my death,according to an agreement made between us before our marriage, takethe property which belongs to her at that time, and as long as sheremains my widow receive her support out of my estate. But if she isnot satified with this, it is my will that instead of the above, orthe one third of my estate, she recieve two beds, six head of sheep,Two cows, Household furniture suitable to keep house with and threehundred dollars in cash.
'Second. The heirs of my oldest son James who left me in Virginia,shall have no share in or of my estate.
'Third. It is my will that my two youngest children Mahala and Jane,shall have one bed and bedding, and one hundred dollars each, out ofmy estate before it is divided.
'Fourth. That these my two youngest children shall have equal shareswith my other children in the remainder of my property.
'Fifth. I do hereby nominate and appoint Joseph Wright and DanielMcCoy, both of Coshocton County, executors of this my last will andtestament, hereby authorizing and empowering them to compromise,adjust, release, and discharge, in such manner as they may deemproper, the debts and claims due me. I do also authorize and empowerthem, if it shall become necessary in order to pay my debts, to sellby private or public sale upon credit or otherwise, as they may thinkproper, all or any part of my Real Estate and to execute deedstherefor to the purchases thereof in fee simple. My said executors maykeep said Real Estate from sale as long as they think it advisable forthe interest of my heirs, but not longer than when my youngest childshall have attained the age of eighteen.
'I do hereby revoke all former will by me made.
'In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 29thday of February, A.D. 1840.
'Joseph [his mark] McCoy
'Signed and acknowledged by the said Joseph McCoy as his last will andtestament in our presence and signed by us in his presence.
'Benjamin Adams, Joseph McMorris, Andrew Walker'
"The State of Ohio, Coshocton county, Court of Common Pleas, calledcourt to wit, the fourth day of February A.D. 1841.
"Be it remembered that on the day and year aforesaid, personallyappeared in open court, Joseph McMorris and Andrew Walker, who beingduly sworn according to law, depose and say that they are two of thesubscribing witness to the last will and testament of Joseph McCoy,late of Virginia township, Coshocton county, deceased. That saidJoseph McCoy was of full age of sound mind and memory, and not underany restraint within the knowledge of these deponents, that theyattested and subscribed said will as witnesses, in the presence of thetestator, and saw the testator subscribe the same.
"Joseph McMorris, Andrew Walker
"Sworn to and subscribed in open court, the date last above written.Attest, A. W. Gorraw, Clerk."

A couple of comments about the above will. The most interesting lineof the will is that "the heirs of my oldest son James who left me inVirginia, shall have no share in or of my estate." As I read it, thiscomment could be intrepretted a couple of ways. First, that James leftJoseph behind when the family moved to Ohio. This would be unusual asJoseph was only 40 years old when he moved to Ohio in 1806, and stillhad children at home. Hardly the sort of situation where a childabandoned a parent in need. Second, perhaps this James left Joseph inVirginia on some visit later in life, and that is why Joseph is upset.Thirdly, perhaps James didn't leave Joseph behind as it appears whenfirst read, but instead "left" refers to James leaving home. Perhapshe had a disagreement, and "left" his father's home. I am inclinedtoward this last explanation, but more data is needed.
Through correspondence with Anna Gerhart Kier, a Norris descendant, Ilearned that a marriage bond was filed in Fauquier Co., Va on Mar. 5,1787 for a Joseph McCoy and Mary William, with consent being given bytheir parents -- John 'McKey' and Joseph Williams. It is quitepossible that the James mentioned Joseph's will is from this firstshort-lived marriage.
The other point to mention is the two youngest children Mahala andJane. Why would he make a point of singling them out? Surely becausethey are still minors, but I believe there is another reason. I thinkMahala and Jane are the product of Joseph's second marriage to NancyNorris. As children of a second marriage, perhaps Joseph feelsinclined to look after their future, just as he makes a point oflooking after his second wife, Nancy."

Sandra,
1805 (year of death) William Wright of Fauquier County, Virginia,
(place of death) was not the son of 1792 John Wright of
Fauquier County, Virginia, and Elizabeth (Bronaugh) (Darnall) Wright.
He was too young.
1805 William Wright of Fauquier County was born on Nov 1, 1740, atYork
County, Virginia. This is set forth in a family
record written by his son 1834 William Wright of Coshocton County,
Ohio, between 1830 and 1834. A copy of that family
record was attached to DAR Application #696077 for Eloise Maynard and
was referred to in Ann Ritchie's book Major
Francis Wright And Ann Washington With Allied Families as a Bible
record. That family record also stated that 1805
William Wright married Elizabeth Lloyd on Dec 25, 1768, and died Aug
29, 1806, in Fauquier County, Virginia. The year of
death is probably 1805, since probate of 1805 William Wright's willwas
on April 28, 1806, at Fauquier County, Virginia,
W.B. 4/203. That will named a son William Wright.
On Aug 26, 1751, by Prince William County, Virginia, Deed M/169 1792
John Wright of Fauquier County gave 185 acres
of land to his son William Wright and the land was described as "Land
which he [William] now lives on." 1805 William
Wright of Fauquier County was only 11 years old in 1751 and,therefore,
could not be living on his own land. The
consequence of this deed is that 1805 William Wright of FauquierCounty
could not be the son of 1792 John Wright of
Fauquier County. Deed M/169 also had on it a notation "Deed dld. Mr.Wm
Wright & wife ye 20th May 1762." On about
Aug 26, 1762, by Fauquier County, Virginia, Deed 1/369 William Wright
and his wife Mary sold 125 acres of the land
gifted to him by his father John Wright. On Oct 13, 1762, by Fauquier
County, Virginia, Deed 1/433 William Wright and
Mary Wright sold the remaining 60 acres of land gifted to him by his
father John Wright. David and Betty Williams joined in
the deed to clear title. These deeds make clear that William Wright,
the son of 1792 John Wright of Fauquier County, was
married to Mary (_____) Wright and sold his land in Fauquier County in
1762.
The identity of William's wife Mary is obtained in King George County,
Virginia, Deed 1743-1752/442 dated September 4,
1751, by which William Wright "of the Parish of Hamilton in the County
of Prince Wm" and his wife Mary sold one share of
"Land Given and Devised by the last Will and Testament of WilliamGrant
the Elder deced. to his son William Grant the
Younger (who was Father of the said Mary Wright party to these
presents}." The reference to William Wright being of
Hamilton Parish identifies him as the son of 1792 John Wright of
Fauquier County who resided in Hamilton Parish, Prince
William County, which became part of Fauquier County on its formation
in 1758. The reference to William Grant the
younger as the father of Mary Wright clearly identifies William
Wright's wife as Mary (Grant) Wright. If William Wright, the
son of 1792 John Wright of Fauquier County, was married to Mary(Grant)
Wright in 1751, then he could not be the same
person as 1805 William Wright of Fauqier County, because 1805 William
Wright was only 11 years old in 1751.
Charles Hoppin first identified 1805 William Wright of Fauquier County
as the son of 1792 John Wright of Fauquier County
in his 1919 article published in Tyler's Quarterly and again in 1932in
The Washington Ancestry. In neither work did Hoppin
give any documentation for the identification of 1805 William Wrightas
the son of 1792 John Wright. Hoppin simply
assumed that 1805 William Wright was the same person as the William
Wright named in 1792 John Wright's will because of
his presence in Fauquier County. Hoppin was apparently unaware of the
family record quoted above or he would have
realized 1805 William Wright of Fauquier County was too young to bethe
son of 1792 John Wright of Fauquier County.
1805 William Wright of Fauquier County first acquired land in Fauquier
County on Sep 5, 1780, by Fauquier County,
Virginia, Deed 7/300, well after 1762 when 1792 John Wright's son
William and his wife Mary had sold their land.
I have collected a substantial amount of circumstantial evidence
identifying 1809 William Wright of Franklin County, Virginia,
who had a wife Mary as the son of 1792 John Wright of Fauquier County
and Elizabeth (Bronaugh) (Darnall) Wright and I
would be happy to share that with you and other interested researchers
