Grace Coale/Cole m. Christopher Wadsworth 1636

Grace Coale/Cole m. Christopher Wadsworth 1636

Posted: 23 Jul 2011 10:38AM GMT
Classification: Query
Surnames: Coale, Cole, Wadsworth
Looking back into this line: Grace Cole supposedly born Duxbury, Mass 1607 ( IMPOSSIBLE) m. Christopher Wadsworth in 1636 Duxbury.
I have been trying to pinpoint this Grace. Some say she wasn't even a Cole. There were other Coles in the Duxbury area in the mid 1600's- Daniel Cole, Job Cole and John Cole all brothers with sisters Rebecca and Eliza. No mention of Grace.
But assuming Grace was a Cole and born in England ,the IGI has a few possibilities:
Gratia Cole- ch Nov 24 1605 Thelveton, Norfolk
Grace Coale chl Mar 2 1606 Alwington, Devon
Grace Cole b 1607 St Olvae Southwark London
Grace Coale ch Jan 4 1607 Pocklington, Yorkshire
Gratia Cole chl Jan 26 1611 Marytavy, Devon

Christopher Wadsworth was to have been ch. Dec 1 1609 in Heptonstall, Yorkshire, England. Which leads me to believe that of the above, the Grace Coale ,ch. Jan 4 1607 Pocklington, Yorkshire, may have been the best bet. She is the daughter of Thomas Coale and I can find 3 more siblings ( all female) Alse, Dionisse and Elizabeth.
Pocklington to Heptonstall is about 70 miles, so not close but possible.

There is also the possibility that Grace was born in Duxbury, Lancashire where Miles Standish was to have been born. This would also make sense (timing and Pilgrim connection).
SO just wondering if ANYONE has done any more digging into these lines???? Thanks- Diane
