Hello Linda,
I am looking for a Thomas COLE with the following children.Wm. Eli-Stephen M.-Mary A.- Lafayette- Thomas E.-Darcus E.-Ladora Virginia- Belle-Stella B.-Benjamin Franklin. Area VA-WV-OH.His wife's name was Eliz. and/or Ann. She was either a POSTEN or a COLE. Mother may have been Margaret COLE and sister Mary.I think she was his mother, others say she was wife's mother. Data on 1860 Harrison Co.,WV census.Family says wife was POSTEN internet says COLE. May have been both I suppose. Appreciate an light you can shed on my brick wall. Thanks. Barb
