    1. [Westmorland Co NB] Jonathan and Sarah Cole
    2. Is anyone researching this family? Jonathan was the s/o Ebenezer and Martha Grace Cole. He was b. c 1791 in Sackville and he d. Apr. 14 1872 in Dorchester. He married Sarah Wade Dec 28 1815. They had 10 children: 1) James Valentine, 1816 - 1883, m. Nancy Barnes; 2) Mary Ann, 1818-1907, m. Alfred Dixon; 3) Michael Grace, 1820-1882, m. Mary Weldon; 4) Ebenezer, 1821-1851, m. Mary Ann Cook; 5) Frances (Fanny), 1824-1892, m. Hantz Atkinson; 6) Rufus, 1825-1911, m. Kathryn Wry and Dorcas Snowden; 7) Ruth E., b. 1830, m. William Stiles; 8) Emily, 1834-1870, m. Asa Read; 9) Martin, 1835 - 1926, m. Sarah Crossman; 10) Albert, b.1838, m. Arabella Wood. My main interest is to find out more about Sarah Wade. She appears in Sackville/Dorchester, but seems to have no parents or other family associations. It has been suggested that she was part of the Yorkshire immigration but there doesn't seem to be any record of that either. Another unknown is Margaret Wade. She married Ebenezer Cole as his second wife in 1810, making her a step-mother to Jonathan. She was b. c 1783. Was she a sister to Sarah? There are no records for her either, until her marriage record. Margaret had three known children, Edward Cole, b. 1815, Olivia Cole, b. 1817 and Silas Cole, b. 1818. I'm a descendant of Edward. Margaret has been a gaping hole in my genealogy fabric for many years. After trying many avenues, I thought I'd try to find out something about Sarah and PRAY there was a connection. Any help would be most gratefully appreciated. Bette Wing Byron NY USA
