Demsey Coker, (son?)

Notes:

In 1830 Federal Census of Washington co, AL, a Dempsey Coker is found, 10110001-11100???. In the 1840 Federal Census of Washington co, AL, Dempsey is found again, 12100001-11310101. So it appears that Dempsey is born abt 1770-1780. Old enough to be the Dempsey on the 1806 Tax List in Knox, Co, TN, and the other male over 16 in the Charles Coker household in 1790 Burke county, NC.

There are other Coker families living nearby to Dempsey in Washington county, AL. It is my guess that; Seborn, Green and Leonard are also his sons. The 1850 Census indicates that Seaborn is born 1804, TN. He has a son James D Coker and probably a son Warren Coker both of whom live nearby.

Naming patterns. William "Buck" Coker had a son Joseph Dempsey Coker and a grandson Dempsey Fields Coker. Buck also had a grandson Seborn Coker. Charles Coker had a son Warren Coker. (Judith Moore had a brother Warren Moore). Charles Coker had a son James.
The naming patterns seem to be consistent with those of the Burke County, NC, Cokers and the time frame seems to allow this Dempsey to be another son of Charles.
