Notes |
- It was this generation, around 1870 when men were changing their bundle some, immigrant name s to the American version. They changed it to how i t was pronounced in the locality where th ey settled. Apparently the G aelic pronounciation of McKaughan sounded like McCoin for that i s the m ost popular way to spell the name now. Rev. Jessie McCoin established the Grassy Creek Primitive Baptist Churc h near Elkin, NC. Thi s church was later taken over by the Methodist d enomination, and id known today as the Grass y Creek Methodist Church. I t is on this site that the McKaughan/McCoin reunions are held eac h yea r on the fourth Sunday in September. He died after fighting a forest fire. From the Four Generations of McKaughans in America: In olden da ys, both churches use d the same cemetery. Although their graves are u nmarked, except by stones, their grave site s are identifiable by some o f his descendants at this time."
