There is an error in the transcription. The surname is Coan and not Coon. If the "o"s and "a"s are examined carefully in this record, it is an a and not an o. Look how the o joins with the n in Bracon -at the top of the o and compare with the a to the n in Coan, Susan and servant where the join is from lower down. It is faint but it is there. My surname in old records has been written as Cone, Coan and Coane but never Coon.

I appreciate you may not want everyone editing, however it would be good to be able to edit and provide an explanation for why the record has been mistranscribed.

Regards Kristine Coan

    @KristineCoan This is a collection of very old transcriptions that are in the process of being linked to images where they will be fully editable. I corrected the spelling on this one.
