Hi, Nana,
I've been researching the Cohoe surname since 1999.My maiden name is Cohoe.
I've actually seen Don Cohoe's work and website and have his file incorporated already into my database. Thanks for offering to send me that file!What I've been trying to do is update his work since that time in order to print/publish a new one.My current databaseis on Rootsweb, http://worldconnect.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=carolinehttp://worldconnect.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=caroline
Cohoes, NY was named from either a Mohawk or Algonquin expression... look in Wikipedia.I say this because Asa Coho,
Father of John Lee Coho, father of Frank Preston Coho, father of Ralph William Coho, left Pennsylvania and went to Canada with his family as Loyalists in about 1786-1787.Asa was not happy there and returned to Pennsylvania soon after.They never stayed in NY... passed through it to get to Canada and to return, but never stayed there.After Andrew/Ambrose died in the 'Starving Winter', his widow, Deborah Heacock Cohoe, remarried to Edward Topham, a neighbor, and had to petition the court for the homestead lands... She did not name Asa, as apparently there was a falling out in the family.It's in the court records.I have a copy somewhere, but don't know if it's on the computer.
Here's a link to part of the story.
Lately, we've been working to establish a date/ship/arrival of Daniel Cohoe from Ireland, England... wherever? to America.A possibility is a Daniel Keoghoe that came from Ireland in the approximate time frame... but have only found him listed in an index for Grand Larceny.Oh well. We all come from somewhere, right???
We are probably cousins, but I don't have you in database?
Warm regards,
Caroline
