Hi Jodie,

Coventry is an English name originally seen as de Coventree or de Coventrie.
At least one branch moved to Scotland prior to or about 1600, but I have
never seen any evidence of any who came from mainland Europe.

So far I have two Emma Coventrys in my file but neither fit your needs.
One was born 1865 in Oneida co., NY but died in 1872
The other was born about 1887 and was living, unmarried, in Clinton co., NY
1920

Also no record of any Coventry in Sullivan or Delaware counties, but I am
slowly working on a Coventry line who were primarily in Columbia co., NY.
Some of them may have drifted into Delaware or Sullivan but I have no
indication of such as yet.

Bob Coventry
