He was married
to Mary Agnes Griffin and they had 2 daughters, Ernestine COYNE
Dewsberry and Eunice Anne Coyne (died 11/1951).
Ernest helped
brother Fred in the bakery before
he opened his own deli and Mary acted as hostess for Fred when
he had his political parties, since wife Pauline
did not care for that activity.
Ernest used to send money to his sister, Helen
COYNE Ewald, married to Henry Ewald (a Jersey City, Hudson County,
NJ Attorney) to help with Martha's
expenses. After Martha died in 1912, Ernest received a letter,
probably from Helen or Henry Ewald that he "no longer needed
to send $25.00 a month to his mother she had died and was buried
in Denville, N.J."

free to email me if
you can enlighten me anymore on Ernest or his family.
