Notes - William Coquillette, son of Daniel and father of James was born in Rockland County, N.Y., in 1792, and as a boy learned the shoemaker's trade. After reaching manhood, he carried on farming in summer, working at his trade in winter. He was thus employed until the opening of the War of 1812, when he enlisted in a light-foot troop, and going to the front served valiantly, acting for some time as one of the guards at Harlem Heights. After the war he went to New York City and was employed for a time as a carman, but eventually returned to his farm in Rockland County, where he passed the rest of his life, dying at the age of forty-two years. He is buried in New York City. During his young manhood Mr. Coquillette married Maria Garrison, and they had ten children: Daniel, William, James, Francis, Marquis LaFayette, Sarah Jane (the doctor's mother), Ellette Ann, William Edgar, Abraham, and Emily and John, both of whom died young.
