Daniel Coker is proven as a son of Benjamin and Elizabeth Coker by the will of Benjamin Coker.

Daniel Coker is first enumerated as the head of the household in the 1840 census in Barnwell. From the census data; it seems probable that he married sometimes between the 1830 and 1840 census enumerations. South Carolina did not require the recording of marriages during this time period.

  • 1840 census data
  • Free white males
  • 2 under 5 years of age
  • 2 - 5 and under 10
  • 1 - 30 and under 40 (Daniel Coker}
  • Free white females
  • 1 - 30 and under 40 (wife)
  • 1 - 70 and under 80 (mother Elizabeth)
  • 6 slaves
  • 4 males 10 and under 24
  • 1 male 30 and under 55
  • 1 female 24 and under 36

Brother James is clearly not in this household, but where is he? He was still living at the time of the writing of the will of mother Elizabeth in 1847.
