We learn from Bristol Parish Register that Francis (Jr.) and Mary
Coleman had a daughter, Amy, born in 1718, and a son, William, born
1733. This would be "just right" for the William Coleman of Fairfield
County, South Carolina, who was upwards of ninety in 1824. Families
being of the size they were in those days, it would appear that the
couple did not go childless for fifteen years and that there were
children who did not happen to have their names entered on the Parish
Register.
