In reply to:
Bates, George Ohio and maybe NY

I have some information on Nahum Koons, who married Ann Rebecca Bates. Nahum was the older brother of my great grandfather. I also have info on one of their offspring, George Bates Koons, who married the sister of my great grand mother. This produced an interesting relationship, for my great grandmother was first the sister and then the aunt of George's wife.
Nahum is mentioned in a book by Slater Brown, called "The Heyday of Spiritualism." There is a chapter devoted to the Koons Spirit Room. Great reading.
If you are interested in this side trip, please advise.
