COLE posted by Brunetta Lafara Lingg on Sunday, February 1, 1998

COLE Seeking contact with any descendants of James COLE. James is registered with a Douglas County (Roseburg Office) Donation Land Grant dated 19 May 1866. His wife (1870 Census - Oakland Post Office, Calapooia Preceint, Douglas County) was Louisa ?? COLE (b. 1824 Tennessee). They were married in 1843 in Missouri. His oldest son, George COLE was born 1849 Missouri. His other children were all born in Oregon: Sidney COLE (1851), Charles COLE (1853), Hannibal COLE (1855), Bruce COLE (1859), James COLE (1861), and Joel COLE (1865). I believe James COLE to be the brother of my ancestor, Henry COLE (1811 Kentucky) and son of Francis COLE (1777 Virginia).
