Henry Coe was probably born abt 1555 at Great Maplestead, co. Essex, [the early register of which parish are lost], just prior to his parents removal to Wissington, co, Suffolk, where the registers are extant from 1538 and do not record his baptism. According to his fathers will he was to receive ₤20 when 21 years of age; and in the spring of 1576, Henry Coo[e] acquired of Oliver Dixon and Dorothy his wife [Step-Father and Mother], 6 acres of meadow in Boxford, co. Suffolk with warranty against them and the heirs of Dorothy; consideration ₤20. Henry evidently lived unmarried with his Mother in her later years at Scotland Hall, Stoke-Nyland, until her decease in 1585; he was executor and the residuary legatee of her goods, but inherited no lands. A few years later he married, and is next found at Thorpe-Morieux, co. Suffolk. Henry Coe left no will, and no administration of his estate is preserved as the Administration Records at Bury St. Edmunds are lost for several years about the time of his decease.
