Marriage for Nathan Cole and Anna M Goble

 1818 Marriage Notice

Nathan Cole and Anna M Goble

Since New York state did not begin civil registration of marriages until the 1880's, marriage information prior to that time can be difficult to find.  So recently while searching through the NYS Historic Newspaper website, I was more than excited to find the 1818 marriage notice for Mr. Nathan Cole to Miss Anna M. Goble.

Nathan Cole and Anna Margaret Goble are my 4th great-grandparents.  Our family descends through their daughter, Sarah Margaret Cole McNeil.

Nathan Cole Jr, son of Nathan Cole and Judith Colburn, was born on 8 Sep 1794 in Hancock, Berkshire, Massachusetts. He died on 5 May 1870 in Taylor, Iowa and was buried in the Graceland Cemetery.  According to the 1870 Mortality Schedule, Nathan died of Scrofula (a disease with glandular swellings, probably a form of tuberculosis).  

Nathan married (1) Anna Margaret Goble, daughter of James Goble and Nancy Mary Pollard, on 24 May 1818 in Jerusalem, Ontario, New York. Anna was born on 27 Jan 1795 in Wyoming, Pennsylvania. She died on 14 Jul 1850 in Parke, Indiana. She was buried on 15 Jul 1850 in Old Rockville Cemetery.

Abigail was born on 13 Apr 1808 in New York and died in 1889 in Bigelow, Holt, Missouri. Nathan and Abigail had one son, Nathan David Cole.
