John and Drusilla had the following children: Almon Bird, Leora, Harry B. and L. Dwight Kee Coleman.

Son Levander Dwight Kee Coleman was born in Hennepin County on 23 July 1863 and died in Lyon County on 30 November 1885. He was named for a man who was a close friend of his father's from the days in Ohio; Levander Dwight Kee. Kee, a captain in the Ohio 105th Reg, died in the battle at Perryville Kentucky on 8 October 1862. In her bible Dwight's sister listed his name as L. Dwight Kee Coleman. What his full correct name was at birth I do not know for certain but I think it is correct to include Levander; as I have shown. His mother was still in Marshall when he died; she moved back to Henn. Cty. after remarrying in Dec.1887. In 1984 I was told there was no record of Dwight's burial in the Marshall Cemetery. Yet since Leora & John were buried there, I would think Dwight would have been buried there. Drusilla (with John) did own a lot in the Union Cemetery in Long Lake, Henn.Cty. The records from those days virtually do not exist. Their son Harry 1868-1869 is buried in the Union Cemetery. The Lyon County death records do not indicate where Dwight was buried. Thank you.
