Tammy,
Before I tackle this, can you answer a couple of questions?
1. Who is "Ebon"? The author of James Cole of Plymouth is Ernest Byron Cole. Are you referring to this book?
2. If you are referring to the James Cole book, I can't find a marriage of James Cole and Mercy Tilson or their child Hezekiah b. 1743 you mention. What page is it on?
