THOMAS COLEMAN was born in Louisville, Ky., April 3, 1837, and is a son
of Thomas and Mary (Ward) Coleman.  Thomas Coleman, Sr., was born in
England, September 6, 1800, and in 1813 came to America with his brother,
John, and located in Philadelphia, where he remained until about 1818, at
which time he came to Louisville, Ky., and engaged in the stove and iron
business, and was thus engaged many years.  He afterward became president
of the Kentucky & Louisville Mutual Insurance Company, in which capacity
he served until a short time before his death, which occurred in August,
1870.  Our subject was reared in Louisville, and in early life attended
school at that place.  He later attended college at Cincinnati, Ohio,
also at Bardstown, Ky., and obtained a good education.  In 1854 he went
to Henry County, and turned his attention to agricultural pursuits.  In
1871 he purchased his present farm of 300 acres, which is well improved
with fine residence and situated in Pendleton.  November 2, 1870, he was
united in marriage with Fannie Barbour, a daughter of William E. and
Harriet Barbour, of Henry County.  Mr. Coleman and wife are members of
the Methodist Episcopal CHurch South.  Thomas Coleman, Sr., was married
first to Miss Mary Taylor, and by her had two children; after her death he
married Miss Mary Ward, having two children, of which latter two, Thomas,
our subject, was the younger.
