To proceed now with the genealogy from Whitley Coker to the present. From
the James Myers Coker Family Bible we have that Whitley Coker, Junior,
was born September25,1783, and died January 1, 1832. The Family Bible
also gives us that Whitley, Jr. married Ann Ingram. These facts are
confirmed by census records, estate papers and other documents. Whitley,
Jr., and Ann had at least nine children. These were
Jane Warin Coker                  b. Dec. 17, 1814       d. 1815
John S. Coker                           Sept.  8, 1817 Dec. 1864
Rebecca Bradley Smith Coker    Jan. 27, 1819            Dec.  4, 1901
Mary Gill Coker                    July  10, 1820 ?
William David Coker                   Mar.  6, 1821 Mar.  3, 1900
Margaret Magdalen Coker           Apr.  3, 1824     Aug. 31, 1893
James Myers Coker                   Aug. 25, 1827May 18, 1908
Leanorah Ann Coker                    Apr.  4, 1832 Apr.  9, 1906
Unknown son                                       ca 1829 ?
Whitley Coker, Jr., died intestate, and for unknown reasons the family
waited a number of years before filing for administration of the estate.
Widow Ann Coker was appointed as Administrix and annual returns were
filed by her until her death around 1849. William D. Coker then sued for
division of the estate which was accomplished in 1851. William D. Coker
is buried at the old cemetery site near Puddin Swamp along with several
other family members. Sadly, I've been told
that some headstones were destroyed, so we may never know the names of
all those buried there.
As for Whitley and Ann Coker's children's marriages, we know that
Magdalen married a Solomon McClam; Leanorah Ann wed Ervin McBride Smith;
John married P.M. Scurry; William married (1) Hazeltine, and (2) S.A.G.
(Gibbons?), and my ancestor, James M. Coker wed Susan Ann Buddin. Susan
Ann Buddin (b. May 30 1834, died Jan. 2, 1909) was the daughter of
William Buddin andMartha McIntosh, also of Sumter District, S.C. The
said William Buddin was descended from John Buddin and Elizabeth
Robinson, known to have been in SouthCarolina by 1720.

Notes:

John Proctor was the other prominent Pedro founding family.

John and his family came to Florida from Dillon, South Carolina during the middle 1800's. They first settled in North Marion County due to high water crossing the trail. They were delayed several weeks due to this high water. Later he settled in Pedro.

John had a family of eight (8) children when his wife died. He needed help to raise his younger children. He was told of a young woman who was looking for a home due to her parents being killed in a wagon wreck shortly after their arrival from another state.

He search for this young woman and found her in Oxford. He hired her to keep house for him. They eventually married and she presented him with a set of twins at his age 75. One of the twins was Jesse and his sister was Hattie. They went on to have three (3) additional children.

John Proctor was the Great, Great grandfather of this writer. Family members who are now deceased have passed down these stories. Ralph Dillon Hackett

John Proctor enlisted in 1862 in Capt. Joseph Eicheberger's Co., 5th Battalion Florida Calvary of the Confederate Army in the Civil War. He was wounded at the Battle of Olustee on February 20, 1864, near Lake City, FL. The battle lasted 7 hours. The battle ground is now a state park near Lake City, FL.

From the Voice of South Marion newspaper (date unknown).

Plans have been made for a dedication ceremony May 6, a Saturday (time will be set later) of the Confederate marker at the grave of John Proctor at Pine Level Cemetery. John Proctor was wounded at the Battle of Olustee and his descendants are too numerous to mention. One, Fred Proctor of California, is planning a trip at this particular time. It is hoped the word will get out to the many others related to John Proctor. Much appreciation was expressed to Bob Watkins who did a beautiful job of setting this marker.

The marker was dedicated on May 6, 2000 at 11:00 A.M.

TRIBUTE TO MOTHER AND DAD, by Louise Proctor Livingston
My Mother and Dad were exceptional people, I think. When they were first married my Dad worked away from home long hours, for $1 a day. After the first year he built a house, doing most of the work himself, even splitting the shingles for the roof and cutting the logs and carrying [them] to his Dads mill for sawing. Dad worked at a mill near the house some. One day, when he was there, the mill blew up and injured many. He felt very fortunate to have missed the disaster. He and Mother -Lived together in this house for the next, 67 years. My Mother was ninety-two in Aug 1971 and still lives in this house. They had one child before building (born at another place) then 7 in this house and numerous grandchildren. There has been only 1 death in this house; the third child, Carl, age four.

Back in early times farmers let their hogs and cows graze on open range identifying by marks and brands. Land was cleared partly by slave labor before the Civil War.

I remember Dad going out at daybreak and working until sundown, just taking time to eat at noon and a short rest. He grew corn and always took some to the mill for our own use. That was the BEST meal and grits. He made syrup grinding his own cane and again using the mule at the mill. We had sweet potatoes and all vegetables. He grew tomatoes and melons, also cantalopes [sic] for trucks. He never owned a tractor. He did most of his cattle tending on horseback but did own a jeep the last few years. He was active up until 77 years old.

Mother was always busy about the house and garden. She cooked big meals daily and of course canned fruits and vegetables. We had our own hogs and worked our own meats, sausage, etc. She taught me to cook, can, and sew and we made all of our clothes. Aside from raising her own children, she has helped with grandchildren and we had company continually. It seemed she never tired. I've heard her tell of the times when she had many small children, about rocking the cradle with one foot, while ironing, sewing or cooking.

My deepest love and appreciation to them for their faithfulness and devotion.

-----------------------

From the "History of the First Baptist Church, Summerfield, FL,":

When J.D., called Mr. Jim by his friends, and Emma married they first lived near Pedro. Early in 1900 they built a house on Cemetery Road near the corner of what is now 47th Ave. and Hwy 42. The house continues to be in the family. Like so many of his kin and friends, J.D. was primarily a farmer and cattleman.

According to records the church letters of J.D. and Emma and daughters Alma and Edith were received by our church from Pedro on Christmas Day, 1924. They had been in their home on Cemetery Road nearly a quarter of a century. The Pedro and Summerfield churches are about the same distance from this house. No reason is known as to why they changed churches. But thank the Lord for it because of the contributions in service made not only by J.D. and Emma but their descendants as well.

------------------------

James Proctor bid on the job of taking children from Summerfield to the schoolhouse, and was hired in 1920. He purchased an open air Ford bus with canvas awnings. His daughter Edith drove the first year, and his daughter Ruth drove for the next three years.

James married Emma Jane CARUTHERS on 20 Oct 1898. Emma (daughter of Preston CARUTHERS and Marion Tibitha PERRY) was born on 19 Aug 1879; died on 14 Apr 1972 in Summerfield, FL. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Zada was Charley's darling for the few years that he lived after their marriage. (He was a widower with no children.) He bought Zada a new car which she learned to drive at a driver's school and they enjoyed life going fishing at "The Little Bridge" at New Smyrna Beach and visiting relatives.

Aunt Zada symbolizes the hard working, little money, proudness, fidelity, and courteousness of most of our old timers. She worked in the fields; scrimped in the kitchen; made every relative "feel at home"; saw her husband die of cancer; nursed her bedridden father-in-law; married a second time; learned to drive a car when well past middle-age; lost a beloved great grandchild to brain tumor; turned to her other great grandchildren for comfort; never drank, smoked, or cursed; still scrappy--if you think-that I admire this little 86 year-old bundle of energy--then you're right!

Notes:

30-year-old Cousin Sue had more than her share of troubles in 1920--daughter Nancy was born in Feb.; her husband died in Aug. and Nancy died in Dec.

A TRIBUTE TO SUE PROCTOR CONNELL

Cousin Sue has always been a part of my life. Since my earliest recollection I have basked in her sweet smile and even sweeter voice. She visited often with a very favorite Aunt, Zada Proctor Priest, way out in the country near Anthony, Fla.
Later we would visit her In Ocala where I became aware that she was a very inspired seamstress, "My hands fairly 'itch' to get back to sewing when I've been away from it for a while", she said.
This accomplishment impressed me greatly because fine sewing was impossible for me and having to please the fickle public seemed highly unlikely (can you Imagine sewing a party dress or a wedding gown?)
I doubt that Sue has missed many Leitner-Proctor reunions in the many years of it's existence. Her 81 years rest lightly Upon her shoulders and we wish for her many, many more. Her appreciative first cousin (once removed)
