Hope you don't mind me dropping in on this. I have been given info on my family that goes back to a John Cooley (Coley) in england in the late 1500's. His son, sauel, came over in the winthrop fleet, with the name spelled variously cole, Coole and Cooley. does any of this match with yours, and is there any info you can give me on any of these. Samuel was originally with the MBC, then moved to the Milford, Ct. area. warren Cooley
