Welcome to the Genealogy of the Coish Family of Ochre Pit Cove, Conception Bay, Newfoundland NOTE: Samuel Coish (183), born in 1792 in either Ochre Pit Cove, Newfoundland or Devon, England and his descendants as listed in this web site are accurate to the best of my knowledge. However, the ancestors of Samuel Coish, and also including the supposed first marriage in Devon, are a large assumption on the part of the writer and is only a strong theory at this point. Only Samuel (183) and Mary Crummey (184) and their descendants is to be considered as close to accuracy as possible considering the possibility for human error while collecting data.
