After the death of Elizabeth Hart Coats, James was remarried to Cammaliza Forrester around 1860.

Cammaliza Coats was born in Kentucky Apr 19, 1827, died September 29, 1921, aged 94 years, 5 months, 10 days. She resided in Kentucky during her girlhood and early womanhood, her maiden name being Forrester. She was married to James Crawford. To this union were born the following children: E. M., T. G., M. E., V. N. and George Crawford and Mrs. Sarah Florida. About the year 1856 she and family moved to Buchannon County, Mo. Here her husband died and she and children moved to Texas Co. where she remained until her death. In the latter part of the 50's she was married to James Coats. To this union were born M. D., A. C., W. B. and Cordelia, Fanny and Camma Coats also one child died in infancy. She was the mother of 13 children.
In early childhood she joined the Methodist church, but in later years she joined and was baptized into the fellowship of the Baptist church at Union, where she remained a faithful member for about 66 years until the time of her death. After the death of her last husband she lived with her children, the greater part of the time with her son, A. C. Coats. She was a devoted christian and her greatest pleasure was to be at her home church. Her kind words and christian deeds are known to everyone in the community. Grandma Coats has lived a long and faithful life. She has kept the faith and won the fight for the treasures in Heaven. She sleeps in peace. The funeral was preached by the pastor of Houston Bapitst church at Union church, where also her remains were laid to rest.
