I think Andrew's looks likely.
Most US townships are 6m x 6m blocks of land - maybe less width here as Coitsville's up against the OH-PA state line. It's due E of Youngstown OH.

Have located 1 man called Thomas Collier in Ohio who was English born circa 1846. He lives with a Pennsylvanian born Alice Collier, but as I can identify both of them on subsequent returns he cannot be Sarah's missing husband.

Seems strange that Abraham is the only child born abroad.
This looks like Sarah with her father from 1871. Maybe Thomas went to the US intending to bring his family later, but something didn't work out. Incoming passenger lists only start 1878, so of no help. Doesn't explain Abrahams birth though.
