"JAMES2 COLE married first at Plymouth on 23 December 1652 MARY TILSON (Plym. Col. Recs., 8:14), doubtless a daughter of Edmond1 and Joan (----) Tilson.* She was living on 20 May 1678 when she gave consent to a deed (Plymouth Co. LR, 4 :108). The court record above shows that he married second by September 1698 ESTHER -----. She was living on 22 November 1699 when she acknowledged the 13 November 1684 deed of James Cole to son Ephraim Cole (Plynouth Co. LR, 3:163). He married third in 1700 or later ABIGAIL ----. (There is considerable confusion about her identity. In Anc. Landmarks, 2:67, William T. Davis states that James2 Cole married Abigail Davenport in time for her to be the mother of Elizabeth3 Cole, who married Elkanah Cushman in 1677, while in New England Marriages Prior to 1700 [Baltimore, 1985], hereafter Torrey's Marriages, 169, Clarence Almon Torrey states that James's first wife was dead by 1660 and that he married Abigail Davenport in 1654 or by 1660 or by 1679. None of these sources contemplates a wife Esther, and no evidence has been found for the identity of James2 Cole's wife Abigail.)
Children (COLE) of James2 and his first wife Mary (Tilson), order uncertain:†
i MARY3 b. Plymouth 3 Dec. 1653 (Plym. Col. Recs., 8:15); m. Plymouth 3 Jan. 1671 JOHN2 "LAYTHORPE" (Rev. John1) (Plym Col. Recs., 8:33: E. B. Huntington, A Genealogical Memoir of the Lo-Lathrop Family [Ridgefield, Conn., 1884], 42).
ii ELIZABETH b say 1657, d. Plymouth 4 Jan.1681[/2] (MD 13[1911]:203); m.

iii JOHN b. 10 March 1660 (Cole Desc., 25, is the only source for the date, which it does not document), d. Plympton, Mass., 14 March 1723/4 in his 63rd year (Plympton VR, 465); m. SUSANNA2 GRAY shortly bef. 1 April 1688, when Susanna Cole ("who was Grey") was called before the church for fornication with John Cole before her marriage to him (Plym. Ch. Recs., 1:261). She was a daughter of Edward1 and Dorothy (Lettice) Gray (Mayflower Families Through Five Generations, hereafter Mayflower Fams., 2[Plymouth, 1978]:15).
On 7 July 1688 (not rec. until 3 Jan. 1721), James Cole deeded land in Plymouth to his son John Cole (Plymouth Co. LR, 15:211-12). On 26 March 1689, John Cole of Plymouth, fisherman, son this land to William Shirtliff; it was acknowledged by John Cole and wife Susanna on the same day (Plymouth Co. LR, 1:183; MD 32[1934]:36).
Torrey's Marriages, 169, gives John a marriage to Patience Barber. That marriage belongs to his son John4 who married Patience Barber in Bridgewater, Mass., 27 Jan. 1709/10 (Bridgewater VR, 2:86).
iv EPHRAIM b. say 1662; m. Plymouth 3 Jan. 1687 REBECCA2 GRAY (MD 13[1911]:204), daughter of Edward1 and Dorothy (Lettice) Gray (Mayflower Fams., 2:15).
