Honor Your Founder & Patriot Ancestors!

Last year, California Governor Michael Phelps kicked off the inaugural campaign to honor our founder and patriot ancestors by listing them prominently in the centerfold of the Program for the formal banquet. We had over 40 participants, representing over 600/o of the national societies. This year, we'd like to see 100% of the societies represented and at least double the number of participants. In keeping with that goal, we won't raise the price - still a modest $25llisting (or $28 if you will not be attending the General Court and wish a copy of the program mailed to you).

I find another possible founder William Rogers of Connecticut and , who resided in wethersfield, at the ct same time as Robert coe, and possibly belonging to the same religious group under Rev. Richard Denton, uni lut., both resided in Hempstead.

Robert coe removed to Stamford cr as part of a church split and held many influential ofifices there. Another church dissension sent him with a group to Hempstead, then under the Dutch govemment at NewAmsterdam, but after its conquest by the English in 1664 called New york. A church was immediately organized of which Robert coe is said to have been chosen elder, and here he remained eight years, acquired extensive grants of land, some of which he retained until near the close of his life, anl was the magistrate of the town under the Dutch government. rn 1663, the English settlers'in the Dutch colony revolted and came jurisdiction under the of the English connecticut colony.

After Longisland was returned to the jurisdiction of New york, .yorkshire,, becoming a county called he held other offices and retired in 1671, at age 75, after holding the office of High Sheriff.

He is cited as one the of founders of Newtown and Jamaica Ny on Long Island and eventually retired back to Hempstead Ny.

rn 1675, he married his 3rd wife, Jane Rouse, at79 yearsof age. He died at about 92 yearc of age in Jamaica around 16g9. He was truly a patriach for his times. No record of his death or place of burial has been found, and as he disposed of all his property in his lifetime there are no probate records of him. Patriot captain Aaron coe is a great2 grand,son of founder Robert coe. During the Revolution War Capt. Aaron Coe was an ardent patriot both at home and in the field. He took part atTiconderoga as well as Saratoga. He had sons that fought in the Revolutionary war as well as in the war of 1g12. He was a successful farmer and a Deacon at Granville, Mass. Aaron coe was born on 16 Feb l730lr, at Middletown, cr 30 oct l794,the son of Ephraim coe and Hannah Miller, and grandson of captain John coe of stratford, ct who fought in the French Indian wars, held numerous town offices and was in the ct Assembly.

The following story "General Gates Arrests captain coe,, is retord by my great grandfather, 1't Lt. Jerome Hadden coe, MD, as heard from his grand l5 hand father, Ensign Seymour Coe: "Taking his morning constitution, came in failure General Gates, who met one of CaptainAaron Coe's Men who by some flagging in military etiquette, incurred the General's wrath and received a severe to the with the cane. News of the beating coming to the Captain, he proceeded General's tent and took him to tact for the unmilitary and unlawful attack'

captain coe at the time 47 years of age was a man much respected, a Deacon, and one of the prominent men of Granville, Mass, no doubt felt, bearing the difference in rank- the equal of the General and did not spare words of probably felt condemnation. General Gates was effaged at this boldness and he and his effrontery so imprudent, that he ordered him to deliver up his sword a consider himself under arrest. This becoming known to the regiment created by storm of indignant protest. So severe was the feeling that threats were made or the soldiers which if acted upon, would have meant disgrace to the regiment possible injury to the general. Happily one soldier had the good sense to visit ihe general,s tent, headquarters and inform him of the danger."

Such threats are made That I consider your life in there will men say that if you do not retum Captain Coe's sword before night, doubt be 500 bullet holes in your marque before the morning. The general no and already repented his rash act. However, the captain's sword was retumed the Captain released from arrest."

During the revolution Aaron Coe was a Captain from the Granville Militia during Revolutionary war. He served under colonel Mosely's Hampshire Company.
