"As Rev. Abram Coon died Sept. 28, 1813, in his fiftieh year, he must, we infer, have been born in 1763. The family name, prior to about 1800, was spelled McCoon"
"Abram Coon made a profession of his Christian faith in 1786; united with the Seventh-day Babtist Church in Hopkinton in 1791; was called to the office of an evangelist, Aug. 17, 1798; complied with the call on the 24th, and was ordained on the 26th of the same month."
"He was brother to Rev. Asa Coon, and nephew, I think, to Rev William Coon, both of whom were ordained in Hopkinton, and were settled over churches in Rensselaer County, N. Y."
"Mr. Coon was tall and spare in person; had blue eyes and brown hair; always wore a low-crowned hat, and a coat with a straight collar. So venerable was he in appearance, that he was usually called "old Elder Coon." He is remembered as an elequent speaker; a man of sound doctrinal views; sobor, vigilant, wise in council, kind and faithful in all the relations of life; strong in "the faith once delivered to the saints," and skillful in winning souls to Christ. He died in Hopkinton village, in the house now owned and occupied by S. Champlin, Esq., where he had lived many years."

Abram Coon was the seventh pastor of the Westerly/Hophinton Sabbatarian Church, serving from 1802 to 1813. He followed Rev. John Burdick and was succeeded by Rev. Matthew Stillman.
