Query Text: |
I hit a wall - I am looking for the parents of my great grandfather, David Mark COLE. I know that David was born 18 Feb 1880 in Tennessee. His family moved to Virginia a few years later (around 1884). I know that his mother, Susan Diathia WILDER (b. TN abt 1848, dau of Nancy & Joseph WILDER) moved the family from Virginia to Collin county, Texas a short time before the 1900 census. Since Susan is marked as a widowed in the 1900 census, I suspect she moved the family to Texas shortly after her husband dieded. I do not have any evidence for why she moved to Texas, but the most logical reason is to be near family. David and his elder brother, Lafayette, both moved out on their own shortly after the family arrived in Texas. David worked as a farm hand during the 1900 census and married Mary A. OVERSTREET a short time later (1-2 years). Family history (from his grandchildren) says that David's father was named William COLE and his mother was named Nancy. David's death certificate, however, says his father was named Joseph and doesn't give a mother's name, but I strongly suspect that this 'Joseph' actually refers to David's grandfather, Joseph WILDER. I know that David's siblings' were Bernice May, Lafayette, Lilly, Mary Dona, and Claude William COLE. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
