James Cole <\/strong>is my 10th great grandfather.\u00c2\u00a0 He was born 25 Jul 1600 in Highgate, London, England.\u00c2\u00a0 He arrived in Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1633 with his wife Mary Tibbes, sons Hugh, John and James, and his daughter Mary.\u00c2\u00a0 James and his sons Hugh and James were innkeepers on Cole’s Hill in Plymouth, Massachusetts.\u00c2\u00a0 As entreprenuers, the Cole men understood the concept of supply and demand very well.\u00c2\u00a0 We believe James died around 1688 in Plymouth, Massachusetts.<\/p>\n

The plaque at the top of Cole’s Hill in Plymouth reads:<\/p>\n
