Our rationale was that he missed the first one, so the second and third and fourth shot would not have been given without that violation. Coach wanted his second shot!! My partner and I got together, and decided that we were going to give the team the second shot. They missed and the other team scored. My question is did we do this right?

Eventually, yes.

Your original rationale was flawed in that you were thinking of those other free throws as additional free throws, when they were actually substitute shots for the first free throw.

9-1-9 A player occupying a marked lane space may not have either foot beyond the vertical plane of the outside edge of any lane boundary, or beyond the vertical plane of any edge of the space (2 inches by 36 inches) designated by a lane-space mark or beyond the vertical plane of any edge of the space (12 inches by 36 inches) designated by a neutral zone.

9-1-Penalties 2. If the violation is by the free-thrower's opponent only:
b. If the try is not successful, the ball becomes dead when the free throw ends, and a substitute throw shall be attempted by the same free thrower under conditions the same as for the free throw for which it is substituted.
