"Edward Cole, born 1658 in St. Mary's County, Maryland, died 9 Dec
1717 in St. Mary's County, Maryland. He married 1688, in Bushwood,
St. Mary's County, Maryland, Elizabeth Slye, daughter of Robert and
Susannah Slye. Edward Cole made a will dated 6 April, 1717, and proved
20 Dec 1717, in which he identified six children: Edward, Elizabeth,
Robert, Honora, Ruth and Susannah. Robert died before his mother settled
the estate on 16 Aug 1720. Son Edward married Ann Neale. Daughter,
Elizabeth married William Heard. Son Robert did not marry. Daughter
Honora married Thomas Spalding. Daughter Ruth married Thomas Mattingly.
Daughter Susanna married George Jenkins. (Again poor Thomas Richard Gardiner has committed error. According to Father Jenkins and Peggy Oman, Edward married Elizabeth on 7 Oct, 1714. This is consistant wit hthe fact that Elizabeth's first spouse, Luke Gardiner, didn't die until 1705. It is also true that Luke and Elizabeth had several children born in the 1690s.)

of Thomas Mattingly III (uncle of Robert). Robert Cole, in his Wil lof 1771
(citing SMC Md. Wills, Liber 38, folio 515, p416 (1771)) named Rober tMatt-
ingly as his son-in-law (husband of his daughter Jane). He also mentions
their daughter, Catherine Mattingly. Robert Cole's will makes it plain that
his daughter, Margaret (who married Richard Melton), were dead at th etime
of his will. He bequeathed personalty to the "heirs of my daughter Jane
Mattingly and the heirs of my daughter Margaret Melton, and my four child-
ren which is now living, viz., Henrietta Hayden, Eleanor Cole, Elizabeth
Cole and Mary Cole." He named his three sons-in-law, Robert Mattingly,
Richard Melton and Basil Hayden, "my true and trusty friends," executors
of his estate."

From Peg Oman, 6504 So. Clarkson, Littleton, CO 80121 apparently r ef-
erring to this Robert's uncle (1544):
"Robert Cole married Elizabeth Herbert, daughter of Matthew and Gr ace
(Mayden) Herbert. They had three children. Robert died about 1720 nd
Elizabeth married (2nd) James Thompson."

"The following appeared in an obituary published in the Ethan (SD)Enterprise on September 12, 1907:

"Another old settler gone"! "One by one" the old settlers are passingon down the stream of life and time, whose course is variegated withthe different colors of life. Thru the fale from which no travellerever returns, slowly the old people are passing. The last oldneighbor to answer the final summons was Mrs. Bridget Collins Coyne,who died in Ethan, South Dakota on September 8, 1907 at 4:10 p.m.surrounded by her children, grandchildren and loving friends.
"She was born near Tuam, County of Galway, Ireland, December 25, 1837. At the age of 13 she moved to Wolverhampton, Staffordshire, England.At this place she lived till the age of 17 when she was married toMichael C. Coyne. They resided at this place being engaged in miningand farming.
"Nine children were born to this union, three of which survive her,Michael J. Coyne and Thomas H. Coyne of this city and John Coyne ofWoodruff, Wisconsin.
"In 1870, the deceased with family moved to St. Louis, MO., where shelived for two years, emigrated to Fort Dodge, Iowa, where she livedfor one year, then coming to Lesterville, Yankton County, SouthDakota. In 1873, the family moved to Hutchinson County and resided ona farm till about five years ago, she and her husband then moved toEthan and lived here since.
"For the last 20 years Mrs. Coyne has been troubled with cataracts onher eyes and the last two years she has been nearly blind, being ableto see little. Thru all her troubles no word of complaint, no anguishecaped her lips. A friend to everyone she had no enemies and herfriends included everybody. Not long before her death the writer inconversation with her found her quite composed and resigned althoughsuffering intensely with a wasting disease. Old age combined withliver trouble was the immediate cause of her death. She was a devoutmember of the Roman Catholic Church, and the last rites of that Churchwere administered to her the day before her death by Father Brones fothe Holy Trinity Church of Ethan. ......."

The following information was received by email on Oct 19, 2001, fromThelma Eidson (1oaktree@home.com]

"In 1869 Cynthia Sparks took her children from Union County, Georgia,by wagon train to Benton County, Arkansas, along with at least 5 otherfamilies who lived close to her. They all settled in Benton Countyand, as the years went on, they were intermarried and these 6 familiesare all in the different branches of the family tree.
"Mattie Belle Mitchell married William Robinson of Benton County,Arkansas and later moved to Oklahoma. They had thirteen children inall which included three sets of twins. My father Leroy Robinson wasone of her first set of twins.
"I have a picture of Irena Cynthia Sparks done in about 1870 that Iwould be happy to add to your collection. I would be glad to send ashort article on the Sparks and what happened to them after leavingGeorgia if this is something you would be interested in putting inyour quarterly.."

See the SQ pp. 5435-36:

Three years later, Cally Collins alsodied a tragic death, as described in the Enquirer published inYorkville, South Carolina, on February
20, 1906, as follows:

'Rock Hill -- Callie [sic] Collins, the eighteen year old son of Mr.S. M. Collins of this city, was
crushed to death between two box cars Friday [February 14, 1906]afternoon, late. The
accident occurred at Blacksburg. He was a brakeman on the CharlestonDivision of the
Southern railway and was engaged in making a coupling when killed....The young man was an
exceedingly affable, friendly fellow and was very popular with hisassociates.'

SQ pg 3900: She was a granddaughter of Edmund and Lydia (Joynes )Conley, pioneer settlers of Johnson County. (JS: Perhaps Lydia's maiden name was Jaynes rather than Joynes.) "Much of the information we have about this couple (Mary and Henry Sparks) has been obtained from The Conley Clan of Eastern Kentucky, published in 1984 by the Magoffin County (KY) Historical Society."
