I am looking for the ancestors of Charles Cole b abt 1761 and living in Grayson Co where he married Elizabeth Stoneman in 1795. The first Tax List I have found him on is the 1794 Grayson Tax List. I have lots of descendants and now need to find his ancestors. Where did he come from, who were his parents, etc. I have a source that said his parents were James Cole and Sarah Gray from Wilkes Co. NC, but haven't found his name anywere in any info about James and Sarah. A cousin tells the story that Charles traded a shotgun and a jersey cow for 349 acres in Flatridge, where he lives and still maintains the family cemetery. From the cemetery, you can look across the valley and see Bald Rock, where the Roberts (also my family) took roots. Barb Main lines COLE, WARREN & ROBERTS Other names Carrico, Stoneman, Haga, Parks and more http://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=barbnor http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/n/o/r/Barbara-E-Norvell/index.html
