I haven't checked the microfilm on this record yet...but I found a Thomas Cole maybe Cote in these NC deeds but it is on page 678, not sure that's the same page number I had...anyway, his land is on Hunting Creek...and the record is mostly Cole in one place looks like it could be Cote and it says he was from Virginia...
