2 ROGER COLE,* had "his dwelling at Coleton," in Chumleigh, and also held, in 27 Henry III., Hantesford, in that parish.† In 25th of Edward I. he was "returned from the county of Cornwall as holding lands or rents to the amount of £20 yearly value and upwards, either in Capite or otherwise, and as such summoned under the general writ to muster at London, on Sunday next after the Octaves of St. John the Baptist (7 July, 1297), to perform Military Service in person with horses and arms, &c., in parts beyond the Seas ;" ‡ and also again summoned with his son William§ to muster at Berwick-on-Tweed, on the nativity of St. John the Baptist, to perform service against the Scots in 1301. He was father of
3 ROGER (of whom immediately), and of the above-named William, who probably perished in this expedition, as there is no further trace of him ; and perhaps his early death may account for the omission of his name in the family pedigree drawn up, in July 1630, by Sir William Segar, Garter, King-at-Arms.
3 ROGER was heir to his father Roger, and lived in the reign of Edward II. ; his son and heir was

returned by the Sheriff of the county of Devon, pursuant to Writ tested at Westminster, 9 May, as summoned by proclamation to attend the Great Council at Westminster, on Wednesday after Ascension Day, 30 May, 17 Edward II." In the 9th of Edward III (1335) he had free warren in Tamer, Lydeston, Hokesbere, and Hutenesleigh in the county of Devon, and in Rispernatt ;* and it appears by a Fine of 15 Edward III. (1341) that he was possessed of the manors of Respnel in the county of Cornwall, Launceston, and Stokley, and of the manor of Uptamer, Nytheway, and Hutenesleigh, the third part of the manor of Winston, and divers other lands in the county of Devon. He left a son and heir,

From Genforum message by Richard Williams: Humphrey Cole of Tillingham/Robert Coles of Faversham, Feb. 16, 2013:

http://genforum.genealogy.com/cole/messages/16550.html

Humphrey Cole (OR Humphrey Coles) (Vicar of Tillingham, Essex) mentioned in his will made in 1623 his son "William Cole now in Virginia (if he be living)". The son is very likely to be William Coale of Elizabeth City, VA c1597-1669.

Humphrey Cole was a scholar at Corpus Christi College, Oxford and graduated B.A. on 28 Jan 1574. He cannot be the later Humphrey Cole who graduated B.A. from Pembroke College, Cambridge in 1594 since he was appointed to Tillingham in 1588.

Most men were aged about 21 on graduation and so Humphrey Cole was probably born about 1552.

It has often been claimed that Humphrey Cole was a son of William Cole and Elizabeth Deards daughter of Nathaniel Deards of London silkman. This Humphrey can be shown to have been born about 1625 and so this parentage is definitely not correct.

From 1584 to 1588 Humphrey Cole was Rector of London St Mary le Bow. He was preceded here by one Robert Cole (OR Robert Coles) who was Rector from 1559 to his death in 1577.

Robert Cole (Rector of London St Mary le Bow) made his will in 1577 and mentions a youngest son Elcana but annoyingly although mentioning other older children does not give their names.

It is possible that this Robert Cole was the father (or a kinsman) of Humphrey Cole (notice Humphrey's third son is also a Robert).

The notes below hopefully substantiate the information (above) and I would be very grateful for any additions or corrections.

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.

William married Beck, Sarah in 1622 in Norfolk, Virginia, USA. Sarah was born in 1599 in Warwickshire, England; died in 1651 in St Marys (Historical), St Mary's, Maryland, USA; was buried in 1651 in Saint Jerome, St Mary's, Maryland, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

About William Cole, ll
Married three times:

Hester (before 1655) Hannah (circa 1666) Elizabeth Thomas(circa 1670)

He was a farmer. He was a Quaker minister. He resided circa 1651 at West River, Anne Arundel Co., MD.

William Cole II was born in 1633 in the Puritan area near Jamestown, VA to William and Sarah Cole. He grew up there, then moved with his father to St. Mary's Co., MD in 1650. In 1655 he married Hester ____ at Severn, MD and was established in Severn by 1656. His first child, William Cole III was born on 9/26/1655. In 1657 two influential visitors, Thomas Thurston and Josiah Coale came and preached to a growing group of Friends (Quakers). William started writing his name Coale after this. At this time William II associated with older relative, Thomas Cole. In 1658 William refused to bear arms in the militia and was subjected to land penalties. In 1660 William moved his family to the West River in Anne Arundal Co., MD. West River is 30 miles south of Baltimore on the western shore of Chesapeake Bay. He owned 150 acres called "Great Bonnerston". Hester evidently died because in 1666 he married Hannah Galloway, the widow of Richard Galloway, in Ann Arundal Co., MD. They had a son, William Cole, IV born on 10/20/1667 at West River, Anne Arundal Co., MD. Jack Cole of Huntsville, AL believes they also had a son John born in 1669. Hannah probably died in childbirth because her date of death is November, 1669. In 1670 he married a third time to Elizabeth Thomas, daughter of Philip and Sarah Harrison Thomas. William II bought 500 acres on the Patuxent River called "Portland Manor" and another 100 acre tract called "Hickory Hills". In 1672 a dynamic English Founder of Society of Friends visited William. In 1676 William II moved from "Great Bonnerston" to "Portland Manor". William III took over the old homestead "Great Bonnerston" and William IV took over "Hickory Hills". William II died in 1678.
