DNA: MKM Obituary: Thomas Cole was born in Gravity, Taylor county, Iowa, on Oct. 9, 1875, where he spent his early life and engaged in farming. He was married there in 1899. The family came to Montana in 1912 and took up a homestead and resided there until 1939, when they left for San Diego, California. His wife preceded him in death. About eight years ago he went to Seattle. He was united in marriage there and in 1949 and his wife survives. Surviving are two daughters, Myrl Watson and Evelyn Kaldor; three brothers and three sisters, and other relatives. Burial was made in Riverside cemetery. Note: This obituary is pretty confusing about marriages. Thomas did marry in 1899 in Iowa and he and Hattie did come to Montana. Hattie died in 1920 so when the obituary says "they" left for San Diego in 1939 it is unclear who "they" are. Thomas is enumerated in the 1940 census living with his daughter Merl, his marital status is married but no wife is listed. The obituary continues saying he went to Seattle and was married there and in 1949. As near as I can figure, it appears he was married four times. The only other marriage I find besides Hattie is to a Cora Wilson Halfacre in Montana in 1936. Census: 1900 census at Washington Township, Taylor, IA lists: || Thomas Cole, born Oct 1875, age 24, born Iowa, parents born OH/Canada, married 1 year; Hattie, born Oct 1879, age 20, born Iowa, parents born unknown/unknown, children born and living, 0.

PA/IL; Myrtle, 3, b. IA; Infant daughter, 3/12, b. IA. Thomas M. is enumerated immediately after Elmer and Arvilla (Cole) Crawford. Census: 1920 census at Loma, Chouteau, MT shows Thomas M. Pale, 44, b. IA, parents b. OH/Canada, farmer; Hattie A., 40, b. IA, parents b. TN/OH; Myrtle, 12, b. IA; Caryl, 9, b. IA; Evlyn M., 2 5/12, b. MT. The census index at ancestry.com has indexed Thomas as "Thomas M. Pale" in School District 8, Chouteau, MT. The census page clearly shows School District 7. Note: The Bedford Times reports "T.C. Cole (sic) and daughters to spend winter in Gravity." Census: 1930 census at School District 15, that part in Blackfeet Indian Reservation, Cut Bank, Glacier, MT census shows: Thomas M.

Note: John and Daisy were married in Bedford, Iowa in 1908, their daughter Phyllis was born in 1909. They are present together in the 1910 census. John is found in the 1920 census living in Montana with his second wife Katie Maud Ryker and their son Homer who was born in February of 1917. Daisy is found in the 1925 state census living with her sister Lois. With her are her daughter's Phyllis and June. June was born in June of 1918. In this census and all subsequent census she gives her marital status as widow. John's second wife Katie Ryker Cole marries for a second time in Iowa. In 1923, at the age of 45 she marries a 69 year old man. Thus it would appear that John and Daisy were divorced early in their marriage, Daisy never remarries but has a child in 1918. John remarries Katie, she had a child in 1917. John and Katie appear to divorce by 1923 when Katie marries a second time. DNA: MKM Census: 1910 census at Grant Township, Taylor, IA shows: John C.
