Rev. James Edwin Coffey married Elizabeth Cleveland, daughter of Alexander (II) Cleveland Jr. and Mary Milly Presley.1
Rev. James Edwin Coffey was born on 4 July 1729 at Essex Co., Virginia, USA.2
Rev. James Edwin Coffey died on 28 September 1786 at Guilford Co., North Carolina, USA, at age 57.2
; N.B.: per Cleveland [1899:2056]: "m. prob. in Va., Miss Martha COFFEE." Early Colonial Settlers says he m. Elizabeth COFFEY. Cleveland, op cit., also says, "Martha Coffee was not improbably related to Rev. James Coffey, who m. Elizabeth3 Cleveland."
However, ECS gives Edward COFFEY and Anne POWELL as the parents of this Elizabeth COFFEY (who m. John CLEVELAND), but it does not show a son named James for Edward and Anne. The will of this Edward COFFEY, as transcribed by ECS mentions, "'my six children John Cofey Edward Cofey Marther Cofey Ann Cofey Austes Cofey Elizabeth Cofey' . The name Austes may be Anstes." The will names both a Martha and an Elizabeth, but ECS says that this Martha COFFEY m. a Joshua STAPP (bef 1686-1783). ECS does not mention a Rev. James COFFEY.
While there is nothing conclusive in ECS to "prove" that the Eliz. who m. John CLEVELAND, the link of the COFFEY wife of John CLEVELAND to the COFFEY husband of Elizabeth CLEVELAND is only speculation. For now, I have severed the sibling relationship between Elizabeth COFFEY and Rev. James COFFEY. Several online websites show the father of Rev. James to have been a John D. Buford(?) Coffey, Sr. and Jane/Jean Graves.
GA Vaut.6,7,8,9,2 He was a Baptist clergyman.1
; per Cleveland [1899:2058]: "Very probably he was brother to Martha Coffee, wife of John Cleveland."

BIRTH 29 Nov 1767, Randolph County, North Carolina, USA
DEATH 4 Dec 1854 (aged 87), Wilkesboro, Wilkes County, North Carolina, USA
James Wellborn, army officer and legislator, was born in that part of Rowan County that first became Surry County and then Wilkes County in 1778. Here he made his home during a long life, holding public office and operating a large plantation on land that his wife had inherited some two miles from the county seat town of Wilkesboro. In 1800 Wellborn owned 12,321 acres of land and seventy-five slaves. Willie P. Mangum, who visited Wellborn in the spring of 1820, praised the beauty of the Wilkes County area. He further commented: "I have seen in one stock at Col. Welbourns [sic ] 340 Cattle, & 70 or 80 of them that are fattening are in better order than I ever saw any animal of that description. They are raised without expense by sending them into the inexhaustible range of the mountains in the warm season of the year."
Wellborn married Rebecca Montgomery, the daughter of Colonel Hugh Montgomery, of Salisbury, a native of England. Her twin sister, Rachel, married Governor Montfort Stokes. The two sisters inherited large tracts of land from their father and, with their husbands, donated land for the town of Wilkesborough. Wellborn and his wife were the parents of several children, but his eighteen-year-old son, James, Jr., died in November 1827.
In a journal kept by Elisha Mitchell in 1827–28 on a journey to the mountains when he called on James Wellborn, he wrote: "What Wellborn's real character is I cannot make out. He has been a member of the Baptist church and will not allow of no swearing about him. He left the church under the idea that he was unfit to remain in it. He seems to have a religious paroxysm." An obituary in an Asheville newspaper noted the he was "highly esteemed for his strict integrity, great liberality and sterling patriotism." Wellborn died at his residence in Wilkes County and was buried in a nearby family cemetery enclosed by a stone wall. In 1992 Wendell H. Edgerton, of Wilkesboro, the owner of a new factory nearby, pleading ignorance, had the cemetery bulldozed and the site leveled.

~North Carolina - The War of 1812~
Most North Carolinians were folded into the US Army's 10th Regiment under Colonel James Welborn of Wilkes County, who resigned his commission as a general in the North Carolina Militia in order to join the regulars.
The main body of North Carolina troops destined for the Canadian front, the 10th Regiment under Colonel Wellborn, never took part in the fighting because the war came to an end while they were en route. Although not many Tar Heels engaged in military combat, those who did made excellent records of themselves. The total number of North Carolinians killed in combat was eighteen (18).*

GENERAL JAMES WELLBORN
In his day General James Wellborn was probably the most prominent man in the county. He married Rebecca Montgomery, one of the two heirs to the large tracts of land known as the Moravian surveys.
James Wellborn was appointed General of the militia about the close of the Revolutionary War. From the year 1796 to 1835 General Wellborn served in the State Senate thirty years. He served in succession from 1796 to 1811, from 1817 to 1821, in 1823 and 1824, in 1828 to 1829, in 1832 and in 1834 and 1835. Prior to 1835 members of the General Assembly were elected each year, so Wellborn was elected thirty times in 39 years. The fact that a men can stand so popular for 39 years is honor enough for one man. I doubt if the world can furnish a like example.
During his terms in the Senate General Wellborn made strenuous efforts to have the State build a turnpike road from the mountains to the sea, but he failed. That was before any railroads were built in North Carolina and the turnpike would have been a great thing for the people of the west, but east had the majority and they knew that the people of the west had to come to them for their necessities turnpike or no turnpike, and they were not willing to be taxed to build the road for accomodation of the people of the west.
It was largely through the efforts of General Wellborn that his brother-in-law Montfort Stokes, was twice elected to the United States Senate and once elected to Governor of the State.
He was buried in his family cemetery on his plantation "The Bends" about 3 miles west of Wilkesboro.
