COONS posted by Carolyn Lundgren on Monday, September 29, 1997

I am looking for the parents of my 5th great grandparents George Coons, and Sarah ,who moved to Harrison County, Kentucky abt 1797. George died there. They reared their 4 children in Harrison County. We have found possible other records for them in Bourbon, Fayette and Woodford Counties. They may have come to Kentucky through North Carolina. Georges grandfather was one of the original twelve families who settled Germanna in Virginia in 1714. George had 4 children. 1)John, who married Rachel Morgan and stayed in Harrison County. This line inter marries with the Lillys. 2)Isaac, who married Mrs Susan Drennen in Knox County, Illinois and died there. 3)Elizabeth, who married Samuel Chambers. They moved to St Louis, and 4) David, who married twice, and died in St Louis. They intermarry with Herrings from Harrison County, Claypools, Shalers and others. We know alot about David, but very little about his father George and nothing about his mother Sarah. Any information or inquiries are appreciated. The name has been found spelled numerous ways. Coons, Coone, Cuntz, Koen, and Coonts.
