The thread about how far back we'd got got me looking at my wife's family again....
I can trace them through the parish records for Slapton back to Robert Cole (Coal) who married Elizabeth Stabb 27 March 1780. From IGI I can track back to Sampson Cole b 1704 in Slapton - the line is quite straightforward ....
Sampson b 1704
Sampson b 1730
Robert b 1753
They then seem to vanish from Slapton, but there is a Sampson Cole b 1674 in Ugborough who may have married Mary Davies of Slapton on 6 March 1697 in Slapton.
Fromn him I can get back through Adam b 1630, Adam b 1586, Laurence b 1566, Nichi b 1533, Laurence b 1515 - all in Ugborough.
Two questions really ...
1) Does it look likely?
2) Can anybody think of a way of proving the link between Ugborough and Slapton
