The Dutch Colonial Revival home was constructed circa 1935 for Lutie Lewis and Leslie Coates. The Coates family was prominent as farmers and landowners in the Black community and in the Chantilly Baptist Church since the 1870s. The house was demolished in the 1990s. Leslie R Coates attended Dunbar High School in Washington DC (there was no high school for African Americans in Fairfax County until the 1950s) and Howard College. He was a dairy farmer, school bus driver, and machinist who served as a Captain in World War II. In 1959, Mr. Coates was called for jury duty. When he purchased lunch in the courthouse cafeteria, he was told it was for Whites only and directed to a separate room for Blacks. Mr. Coates refused to go there and was informed that state law required separate dining facilities. Lutie Lewis Coates was an educator who served as a teacher or school principal for Fairfax County Schools from 1935 to 1963. She taught in the “colored schools” in the Chantilly area such as the two- room Squirrel Hill school, and later, as principal of Luther Jackson High School. Lutie Lewis Coates Elementary School is named in her honor. Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Leslie and Lutie L.
