Misc. Notes
Came to Woodstock in 1808. He was much in town office, and was Captain of the militia company that went to Portland during the 1812 war.

Per Harold C. Perham, Maine Families, Book 4, pg. 143:
“To the best of my knowledge, Jotham Perham and Cyprian Cole were life-time friends, first on High Street, and later in Greenwood and Woodstock. I believe that Cyprian Cole’s first wife, Lovicy Perham Cole, is buried in the Perham Neighborhood Cemetery near old Lemuel and Betsey Perham, her parents. Cyprian Cole’s second wife was Patty Tuell, daughter of Patty (Perham) Tuell and Ebenezer Tuell. Patty Perham Tuell was the oldest of the sisters of Jotham Perham. It is essential that the writer points out these close family ties, for the Coles and the Perhams are tied into both the Greenwood history as well as the Woodstock history.”
