Alexander is identified as the father of Samuel McCoy and the grandfather of George W. McCoy in the following biographical sketch (Biographical Review of Cass, Schuyler, and Brown Counties, Illinois, Chicago: Biographical Review Publishing Co., 1892, p. 344):

GEORGE W. McCOY, an extensive farmer of Mt. Sterling, Illinois, was born in Adams county, Ohio, January 1, 1831. His father, Samuel McCoy, was born in Cecil county, Maryland, in 1796. The grandfather of our subject, Alexander McCoy, was born in Ireland, of Scotch ancestry. His parents were poor and he commenced very early to earn his own living, being brought up to work in a factory. He was a lad in his 'teens when he came to America and located in Maryland, where his parents who had preceded him to America were then living. He learned the cooper's trade, which he followed for some time. He was twice married but lost both of his wives before coming to Ohio. After the death of his second wife he removed with his children to Ohio and lived in that State some years, and then spent his last years in Brown county. The father of our subject died in 1882, in the eighty-fifth year of his age. He was about eighteen years old when he went to Ohio. He was very industrious, saved his earnings and finally purchased land in Adams county. He then turned his attention to agricultural pursuits but still followed his trade a portion of each year. He resided in Adams county until 1839, and then sold his farm there and came to Illinois. He was accompanied by his wife and three children, and the entire journey was made overland. After about fifteen days' travel they landed in Brown county. He purchased a tract of land near Versailles, and there devoted his time to farming. He was a resident of Brown county until his death, which occurred as before stated.

The maiden name of the mother of our subject was Sarah Pilston. She was born in Virginia, a daughter of William and Easter Pilston. She died in Ohio in 1834.

The subject of this writing was in his ninth year when he came to Illinois with his parents. At that time the country was wild and deer, wild turkeys, and other game were quite plentiful. Farming was conducted in the most primitive manner. All the grass was cut with a scythe, and the grain was either cut with a reap hook or a cradle and trampled out with horses or with a flail. There were no fanning-mills, and in order to clean the grain one man would take it in a seive and hold it high and two others would stand by with a sheet with which they fanned the air and in that manner separated the grain from the chaff.

Mr. McCoy remained with his father until nineteen years of age, then commenced farming on rented land. When he attained his majority his father gave him $250, and with that and his earnings he had enough to pay cash on 120 acres of land, which is now included in the farm he now occupies. The whole price of the farm was $680, and he paid six per cent interest on the balance. He lived in a log cabin and in that humble abode himself and wife commenced housekeeping. They occupied that dwelling about eighteen months and then built a brick house. Since that time he has erected a commodious frame house and other buildings, planted fruit and shade trees and placed the land in a high state of cultivation. He has been very successful as a farmer and has purchased other land at different times and is now the owner of about 500 acres, all in Brown county.

The marriage of Mr. McCoy took place January 27, 1853, to Sarah Harper. She was born in Ohio, August 29, 1835, and was the daughter of Elder James Harper. Mrs. McCoy died November 2, 1868, and Mr. McCoy subsequently married Lucinda, a sister of his former wife, October 28, 1869. She was born in Brown county, Illinois, April 17, 1847, and died May 7, 1890. He was married to Laura J. Putman, October 28, 1891. She was born in Ohio, August 7, 1841. Her father, William Putman, was born in Bourbon county, Kentucky, October 16, 1797, and was the son of Zachariah and Winnifred (Collins) Putman. The parents of Mrs. McCoy moved to Ohio and resided in Champaign county for some years, coming from there to Illinois in 1841, at which time the father purchased a farm in Mt. Sterling township, which he occupied until his death, July 24, 1880. Mr. McCoy has five children by his first marriage: Elvira, Mahala, Mary Jane, Turner and Martha. Of his second marriage there are William and Arthur. Mr. and Mrs. McCoy are members of the Primitive Baptist Church and are good pious people. In politics he affiliates with the Democratic party. He has served long as Supervisor and has been Chairman of the Board.

In spite of the statement that Alexander McCoy spent his last years in Illinois, Ohio Wills & Estates to 1850 (Carol Willsey Bell, 1981) notes a reference to an Alexander McCoy estate dated 1841 in the Administrations & Estates Docket of Adams County, Ohio, p. 14, case # 56. Unfortunately, this volume, presumed to be one of the few to survive the disastrous courthouse fire of 1910, seems now to have disappeared, according to the Adams County Genealogical Society. Taken at face value, however, these statements suggest that Alexander may have died in Illinois but still owned property in Ohio, and that his will was therefore filed in Ohio. We did not find any mention of his estate in Brown Co., IL, but it is still possible that he was living with some part of the family that resided elsewhere in Illinois, or even in Indiana (where John Wingate McCoy lived for a time). The Adams County, Ohio court house burned in 1910, and most of the probate records were lost. If Alexander owned any real property in Adams County at the time of his death, as might be expected if there were probate proceedings, we might expect some trace of it in the deed books, all of which seem to have survived the fire. Our search of these records is hampered by the lack of a microfilmed index. Also, if Alexander really did die in Illinois, we would guess that his will or administration would have been filed first in Illinois. It might be worthwhile to search the probate records of the counties surrounding Brown.

The county history says Alexander was born in Ireland, presumably in the Scottish settlements in the North, came to US as a teen, married twice in Maryland but lost both wives, then (?) moved to Adams County, Ohio about 1815. Names in later generations suggest his full name might have been John Alexander McCoy. Could he have been the John McCoy on p. 28 of the 1810 census, Cecil Co., MD?

We have found no certain record of Alexander in Maryland, but there are several records that merit further consideration. First, the transcribed marriage record in Cecil County, rendered as "Alexander Cay (?)" to Hannah McCollough (one of many contemporary spellings of McCullough, a common surname in Cecil County), in 1796, seems very likely to be his. The original record has not been examined (not available on microfilm through the Family History Library), but we suppose the question mark could signify uncertainty about the symbol, sometimes indistinct, commonly used to abbreviate "Mc". The date is about right, and the name of the bride was predicted from the names of the children of Alexander's son Samuel. There is no other marriage that could be his in the transcribed records, although the transcript is known to contain errors.

The second record is an Alexander McCoy in the 1790 census of South Susquehanna Hundred, Cecil County (p. 325). The listing shows no free white males over 16, nor any under 16, and no slaves. The only column checked is the "other" column. Logically, this column could be used for a free non-white male, or perhaps an indentured male (thus not "free" and not "slave") of any race, or even a white male under the age of 16 who is living by himself. There are other males listed this way in the same census, so it might be possible to determine the correct interpretation empirically.

Reading between the lines, it appears that Alexander was left in Ireland in a work house or factory, and somehow managed to find his way to America while still in his teens and before learning a trade. How could he have paid for the passage, if not through an indenture? Was he recruited to work for a cooper, who paid his passage in return for several years of his labor? This scenario seems to indicate, also, that Alexander's parents remained too poor to offer any significant support. A possible scenario is that Alexander "learned the cooper's trade" precisely through his indentured service in Maryland, and that his master is one of the people listed in South Susquehanna Hundred in the 1790 census—however, the census schedule as it now exists was alphabetized, and not listed in the order in which the households were visited. Alexander and his master were probably brought together at a "sale" of new arrivals at the port of entry, presumably Philadelphia, New Castle, or Baltimore. Alexander's master would have made a payment to the ship's captain, and the transaction might have been legally recorded. It might be worthwhile to look for a cooper among the residents of South Susquehanna, and then to investigate the cooper's business dealings.

In the proceedings related to the estate of Samuel McCullough, his father-in-law, we find Alexander McCoy purchasing several items at the estate sale in 1804 (see below, and in our notes on Samuel McCullough).

The first record that seems absolutely certain is the census listing of 1820, in Scott Tp., Adams Co., OH, where his neighbors include John and Thomas McCullough! However, their presence may simply be a coincidence; there are references to John and Alexander McCullough (or McCulloch) in deeds in this area as early as 1808, mentioning surveys in their name. It may be that they are actually Virginians who had some claim in the Virginia Military District. It is also possible that they are relatives of the McCullough families found in Cecil Co., MD. So far, we have not found any of them in the 1850 census to discover where they were born.

The 1820 census listing shows Alexander was then age 45 or older (thus born before 1775). He had two sons (one under 10, the other under 16 years of age) and two daughters (one under 10, the other under 16). There is also a woman age 45 or older. Perhaps his second wife did actually come with the family to Ohio. She is gone by 1830. By 1820, Alexander's son Samuel had already married in Adams Co., but we did not find him on the census. Was he living with another family? Or were Samuel and John Wingate McCoy simply missed by the enumerator?

In 1830, we find Alexander in Wayne Township. He is then age 50-60, thus born 1770-1780. He seems to have the same two sons and two daughters as before, but there is an additional female in the 15-20 age bracket. Has one of the sons married? Or is there a housekeeper?

In 1840, we were unable to locate Alexander in any census.

A possible mention of our Alexander is found in the will of Samuel McCullough of South Susquehanna Hundred, Cecil Co., MD. An abstract of this will is found in a group of miscellaneous citations of the McCullough surname in Maxwell History and Genealogy, p. 372 (by L.A. C. Blaine and E. D. Mellette, 1916). According to the abstract, the will includes a bequest of 5 shillings (likely intended as a minimal amount to signify the testator's opinion!) to his son-in-law Alexander McCay, and 15 pounds to his grandson Samuel McCay as soon as he reached the age of 21. The abstract is a bit confused, but the original is clear. Among the residual heirs are his son Samuel McCullough, who may be the one born 14 feb 1775 (IGI) who later married his cousin Mary McVey and settled first in Rockbridge Co., VA (1815) and soon thereafter in Adams Co., OH (1816) (see extensive account of this family in the Evans and Stivers History of Adams County, Ohio, pp. 595 ff.). (The reference for the will of 1802 is to a liber formerly designated FF, and now known as will book 6, on FHL microfilm #0013868. The web site of the Maryland Archives indicates the will is on pp. 353-355 of this volume and shows the date as 01 may 1804.)

We found descendants of three of the children of Alexander and Hannah who married descendants of Nathan and Rebecca Perry: Eliza Jane, daughter of Alexander, married (2) Luke Perry; John Alexander, son of Sarah Ann, daughter of Alexander, married Margaret Ann Perry; and three sisters Louisa, Elizabeth, and Emily, daughters of Alexander McCoy Jr. married, respectively, Thomas Fielding Perry, Francis Marion Perry, and William Perry. If any of their descendants have taken autosomal DNA tests, it might be possible to establish some additional relationships.

[5533] County histories imply that Alexander spent his last days in Brown Co., IL, but there is a published record of an Alexander McCoy estate, George McCoy executor, on Adams Co. OH docket 12 aug 1841 (volume now lost???).

[14787] According to Brown Co. history. Logically, the mother of John Wingate McCoy should have been a daughter of John Wingate, and there are many Wingates in Cecil Co., MD around the time Samuel McCoy was born.

There are many mysteries surrounding this family. Existence of 3 wives from History of Shelby & Moultrie Counties., Illinois, 1881. Children are assigned according to the listed death dates of the various wives. From this information, "Alexander McCoy Jr." estate in Brown Co. would likely pertain to Alexander son of George, and not, as William Perry indicates, to Alexander McCoy the immigrant. Several of the children were married in Brown Co., IL 1860-1861 by Joseph Patterson, JP.

But how, then, to explain the guardian's bond dated 19 may 1862, in which Alexander McCoy and Abner (?) Curry are appointed as guardians of Sarah Jane McCoy and Thomas Jefferson McCoy, minor heirs of Alexander McCoy, late of Brown County, Illinois, but the word deceased lined out? (Brown Co., IL Guardian's Bonds A, p. 19). The preceding bond, issued 18 mar 1862, was for the appointment of Alexander McCoy and Alford Simpson as guardians of Alexander McCoy, minor heir of George McCoy, late of said county, deceased. Evidently, the bond of 19 may 1862 is in error, the word late should have been lined out as well, and the guardianship is for some other purpose, such as a bequest from the late mother of these children.

[6371] Birthdate from census records. Tombstone says 1816. So far, no exact death date has been found.

[6372] According to pedigree chart of William V. Perry, Liberty, IL. Refers to McCoy cemetery, section 16, Cold Spring Tp., Shelby Co., IL. 1870shelbyco: Alexr&mrs.ann sarah susan wm mary/

[6373] Cemetery said to be in Section 16.

[14822] Likely married in Adams Co., OH, where records later than 1833 were lost in a courthouse fire. Emily Hemphill is likely related to Rachel Hemphill who m. John Morrison and moved to Shelby Co., IL -- where Alexander later lived.

[14823] Brown Co. marriage records Book A, #400. As the marriage is in 1847, after the birthdates of the first 7 children listed in the 1850 census, they are assumed to belong to his first wife, Emily Hemphill.

[14824] Assumed to have married in Brown Co., IL, because Hist. Shelby & Moultrie Cos., IL indicates they settled in Shelby Co., IL in 1864. She is mentioned in a Brown Co., IL deed on 09apr1862.

Alexander MCCOY       (ID #I17373)

(male)
Father: George MCCOY (b. ABT 1807, d. MAY 1860)
Mother: Nancy WHEELER (b. ABT 1821, d. BEF 1867)

 

In addition to the information found in his probate case file, Mary E. Fouts has found what appear to be probate minutes, described in an e-mail of 25 jul 2001:

Hello John,

I spent quite a few hours in Mt. Sterling, IL today (Brown County). I found an answer for myself and hope it adds to your information. It was not included in the material you had sent me anyway.

George McCoy died "on or about 1 July 1860." "His only son, Alexander McCoy, jr. died about 28 September 1866." George also left a widow, Lorinda McCoy listed as "step mother" of Alexander McCoy, jr. Lorinda got her dowers right and some land was left to Alexander. My marriage records for Brown County does not go far enough to find it.

When Alexander, jr. died (about 28 September, 1866) it listed his heirs — I had seen a list of everyone getting a portion of his estate, but this was listed differently and explained why so many names were listed as heirs. It gave the relationship:

GEORGE McCOY
Heirs listed:
Samuel (uncle)
Alexander Sr. (uncle)
Mary Smith, Mrs. John (aunt)
Eliza J. Perry, Mrs. Luke, Sr. (aunt)
Sarah Alexander, Mrs. Isaia (aunt)

NANCY WHEELER
Charles Wheeler (uncle)
Sidney Wheeler (uncle)
John Wheeler (uncle)
Polly Tolle, Mrs. Caleb (aunt)
Minerva Draper, Mrs. Allen (aunt)
Allen Wheeler, deceased (uncle)
"Allen's unknown heirs"

The list of heirs, properly termed "heirs-at-law", has a very specific implications. First, it requires that Alexander did not leave a will—heirs-at-law should come into play only when the deceased did not leave a will. Second, it is certain that Alexander McCoy left no living siblings, and no siblings who left living descendants, otherwise these would have been named in preference to the heirs of his parents. We therefore conclude that his brother Sidney who appears on the 1850 census had already died. Further, his aunts and uncles could not have been named as heirs-at-law unless his parents, George McCoy and Nancy Wheeler McCoy, had already died. Only after it is determined that there are no survivors of these closer degrees of relationship can the siblings of the parents, or the descendants of these siblings, be considered as heirs-at-law. Thus, the list of heirs should provide a complete list of all the living siblings of the full blood (half-siblings appear to have been excluded at that period) on both sides of the family. Since John Wingate McCoy is not listed, even though he was living in 1867, we can conclude that he was not a sibling of the full blood to Samuel, George, Alexander, Mary, Eliza, and Sarah McCoy. We can also be sure that Mary McCoy Smith, who has been so difficult to locate, had not remarried at that date.

The implications of this estate for the parentage of John Wingate McCoy depend on whether half-siblings were considered on equal footing with full siblings for the purposes of establishing the heirs-at-law in Illinois in the 1860's. It is our understanding that they would be excluded, but we have not found a clear statement of the law or a suitable case that demonstrates this point.

The Brown Co. Probate Record vol. 3 p. 226 shows that George W. McCoy (he is the son of Samuel, and thus a first cousin of the Alexander who had recently died) came before the probate court on 08 oct 1866 and made a bond to administer the estate of Alexander McCoy Jr. The next action was 17 dec 1866, when various claims against the state were approved: John A. Givens, $3.50; Joseph S. Glass, $2.65; Mary Smith, $105.00 (after hearing testimony of James Aber); James Aber, $30.00; E. A. Gordley, $106.06; James Putman, $19.00; Allen & Stoner, $25.50. On 18 dec 1866, Alexander's guardian A. A. Curry presented an accounting of assets he held on behalf of his late ward: a note on Joseph Harper for $400, 20 aug 1864, valued at $306.00; a note on Alexander McCoy the said deceased 25 nov 1865 valued at $273; a note on W. C. Marvin, H. W. Weaver, and John A. Marvin, valued at $52.00; and cash on hand $127.13, from which were deducted several numbered vouchers totaling $80.27.

[6354] this is the Alexander found living with A. D. Draper and Minerva Wheeler Draper in 1850 census of Brown Co., IL (#600). There is also a Sidney McCoy b. 1849 IL, of whom no further record.

[6355] Date given in records of the probate of his estate, Brown Co., IL.

Anne Marie (Mariah) MCCOY       (ID #I15340)

(female)
Father: Thomas Jefferson MCCOY (b. 12 JUN 1789, d. 13 DEC 1861)
Mother: Mary Ann D. SMITH (b. 16 JUN 1805, d. 02 JAN 1892)

Family 1 : Timothy STEWART (dates unknown)

 

Apparently married a Stewart and was widowed by the time of the 1870 census, when she is keeping house for her widowed mother Mary McCoy in Clark Co., IL. We did not locate her husband on the 1870 census. The marriage to Timothy Stewart, however, is in fact duly recorded in Clark Co., Illinois on 28 oct 1869, the same day the license was issued. Her tombstone in Bethesda Cemetery, Sugarcreek Tp., Vigo Co., IN indicates she was the wife of T. R. Stewart, but there is no burial for him.
