Notes - DANIEL appears in the records of Plymouth Colony about 1633 with his brothers, Job and John. Daniel was named freeman 1645 and held several political offices in Yarmouth and Eastham MA. In 1661 he was licensed to retail "wine and strong waters." Daniel married at Plymouth Colony RUTH (unknown). Ruth's maiden name is controversial and some researchers are of the opinion that she was Ruth Collier, a daughter of William Collier; this has not been conclusively proven to be correct. Other researchers are of the opinion that her maiden name was Ruth Chester but with no evidence that this is correct. Ruth was born about 1627; died 15 Dec 1694. Daniel was born about 1614; died at Eastham MA 21 Dec 1694, one week after his wife died. The estate of Ruth was administered 15 Jan 1695. Both are buried at Eastham Cove Burial Ground, Eastham MA.
There is speculation that Daniel, his brothers, Job, and John were also brothers to James Cole. I believe this to be true because their offspring seemed to know each other. Daniel's grandson,Zacheus, married Mary Cole, who came from the line of James. James is known to have run a pub. Daniel received his liquor license in 1666. The two families come together again in Washington County, VA from the mid to late 18th century under the care or Rev. Thomas Woolsey.
I believe Israel I, II, III were cousins to Hugh I, II, III. I've yet to prove it, but it seems very probable, given the circumstances.
