    Note
    • Several genealogist have assigned ancestors to John Cole, but none has produced proof of his ancestry.'The Parrish Family,' ( p. 336) lists a William Cole and his wife Sarah as possible parents of John with the caution that the relationship has not been proved.'The Early Settlers of Maryland'( p. 98) lists a William Cole and his wife Sarah as immigrants to Maryland in 1650-51. 'Descendants From First Families...' gives, without proof, the following ancestry for John Cole: John Cole (above), s/o Thomas Cole who owned a plantation called Coale's Harbour, which today is known as Baltimore Harbour; s/o William Coale; s/o WilliamCoale by his 2nd wife Hannah. This last William married 3 times and resided in what is now Anne Arundel Co., MD. 'Genealogies of Virginia Families' presents evidence that a Sarah Cole was the sole heir of Thomas Cole who patented Coale's Harbor and therefore Thomas Coale is not the father of John. John Cole testified at the trial of Captain John Oldten who was tried and convicted and later given a royal pardon in the murder of Dennis Garrett, his father-in-law.
    Note
    • There are several versions of the family of John and Johanna (Garrett) Cole. The main difference beteen the two concerns Christopher Cole, one of the principals of the subject Cole line. The book, "The Parrish Family" lists Christopher as the son of John and Johanna Cole and the book, "Baltimore County Families" lists Christopher as the grandson of John and Johanna. The latter version is more consistent with the dates associated with Christopher's life and is used in this document.
