From: "Colleen Kline" Date: Saturday, February 19, 2005 6:58 PM I am searching for John R Cole, born 09 Dec 1820 in Woodford Co, KY. I have searched the Richard Cole family but have not found a son or grandson by the name of John R. John R Cole went to Platte Co, MO where he married Martha Ford,25 Sep 1853, daughter of William Ford (b 1813 in Woodford Co) and Margaret Sparks Calmes (gd of Marquis Calmes) As of now I have not found who William Ford's father was. His marriage application was signed by Absalom Ford & Margaret's father,George Calmes. I am also searching for parents of William Ford. Thank you for any clues or help you can give me.
