C. P. [Curtis Pratt] Coe (deceased) was born May 18, 1801, at East Granville, Mass., son of James and Nancy (Pratt) Coe. His father's family had its origin in England, and mention is made of it in the third volume of Fox's Book of Martyrs, wherein is related the burning at the stake of Roger Coe, of Milford, Suffolk, by order of Queen Mary in 1555. Later it was ascertained that a Robert Coe was the first of the family to emigrate to America, coming in the ship "Francis," John Cutting, Master, in the fall of 1634. He landed in Boston, April 10, 1635, somewhat later than the Massachusetts colony, and settled at Watertown. From the New England records our subject could trace back his pedigree through nine generations. C. P. Coe was twice married, on first occasion February 11, 1823, to Lucinda Cutler, who bore him the following children: Nancy O., Orpha A., Celina E., Eben S., Henry B. and Amy A.

Munger, and died May 21, 1877; Dr. E. L. Munger died in December, 1884; they left one son—Charles A. Celina E. married Malcome McCartey, and died January 5, 1875, leaving one daughter—Cora L., wife of F. W. Fitz.
