Notes:

1. Sevilla is person 359 in DJB. She is given under the name Servilla in the profile of her father Nathaniel, who is person 344. Her marriage date is given there as May 13, 1789; this date is likely a typo in the book since the copy of the actual marriage document shows the marriage year as 1787^[1]
2. Sevilla is also mentioned in the court petition by her sister Abigail, referred to as "Sevilla Coe, wife of Aaron Coe".^[2]
