This page was last updated on . About This Site Coffey Cousins' Clearinghouse is a genealogy site created to assist researchers with Coffey or Coffee ancestors. Although representing the Clearinghouse as an on-line source of information, this web page and all attached web pages were designed by and are the property of Jack K. Coffee and as such are subject to copyright rules The Coffey Cousins' Clearinghouse was the child of Leonard N. Coffey (1930-1989), and began with his newsletter to help bring together a very loosely organized group of genealogists researching their Coffee/Coffey ancestors. After Leonard died in 1989, his family gave the newsletter to Bonnie Culley. Bonnie has been the editor and publisher since that time. The newsletter is the organ that continues to invite subscribers and other interested researchers together yearly to share information or to just socialize. This group of people are, as termed by former and long time "president" Jeff Coffey of San Antonio, TX, a "disorganized organization" with no constitution, by-laws or other legal documents to impede the fun and fellowship that our annual gatherings attempt to present. Our current "president" is Edwin Coffee of Woodbridge, VA. The Coffey Cousins' Clearinghouse newsletter and this website can always use scholarly research papers, other text files, civil records, photographs, arguments for or against a particular family connection, and the like. Feel free to send information to me, or to Bonnie Culley at the address below.
Contact Bonnie Culley, editor and publisher of the Coffey Cousins' Clearinghouse newsletter with information to be included in her newsletter and for all questions concerning the newsletter and subscriptions. Bonnie can be reached by e-mail at bculey@embarqmail.com or write to her at 4012 Cambridge Circle, Jefferson City, MO 65109. Potential subscribers can write to Bonnie and request a sample copy of a recent newsletter. * Photos taken at the 2007 Coffey Cousins' Convention are now on-line.
