Robert Coe (26 October 1596 – 1689) was an early English settler and the progenitor in New England of many Coes in America. Robert Coe was born at Thorpe Morieux, Suffolk, England, and baptised there on October 26, 1596, as recorded in parish registers. His father, Henry Coe, had been a yeoman, probably a clothmaker, and for several years was church warden.
