Biography
Henry was born in 1825. He died in 1844.
1840 US Census, Wayne County, Kentucky, lists Henry Coffey as the head of household with the following family members:
- 1 white male under age 5 - possibly Jesse M.
- 1 white male 15-19 - ?
- 1 white male 20-29 - ?
- 1 white female 20-29 - Sarah
If we accept the 1825 birth date, then the 15-19 year-old male would be Henry. Then who is the 20-29 year-old male?
If, however, the 1825 birth date is incorrect, then the 20-29 year-old male would be Henry. Then who is the 15-19 year-old male?

Coffey-2516 and Coffey-1729 appear to represent the same person because: they share a similar birth year, the same geographical birthplace and death place, the same parents, some of the same siblings, the same spouse, Sarah Ann Isbell, and the same son, Henry T. Coffey.
