      William Coale was the headright of Wm Lucas who paid for his transportation into Maryland on 24 Mar 1651. He received a patent in 1662 for 350 acres in Somerset County, Maryland, called "Colbrook." As William Cole of St Jerome's, [St Marys Co] he wrote a will 25 Mar 1669 which was proved 17 Jul 1669. In that will he names his wife Sarah and daughter Susan. A Willis B. Coale in 1976 wrote a book in which he claimed this Wm Coale was the same as Wm Cole of Warwick, VA. This, however, was an impossibility since it is proved from VA land records (see Pat Bk 5, p. 215) that that Wm had died in VA before 15 Sep 1664. (documentation for all these statements can be found in Adventurers of Purse & Person by John Dorman, 4th ed., vol 1, pp 713-14.) We want to keep the families of these 2 different, but contemporary, Wm Coles separated out as they have been mistakenly mixed up in the past.
