Research Notes: Cole or Cobb?

The Great Migration series by Robert Charles Anderson is the primary source for Puritan Great Migration profiles. John Lothrop and his wife Mary Cole (not Cobb) are profiled by RCA. Where is the evidence that John's wife was Mary Cobb, not Mary Cole? Dellinger-332

Reference to a source at The NEHGS listing Mary's lnab as Cobb, have not been found. James Cobb is probably NOT the father of this Mary Cobb. The daughter of James Cobb was born in 1664 and died in 1737. This Mary was born in 1654 and died in 1695. James Cobb and Mary Tilson have been proposed as parents for Mary the wife of John Lothrop. As of this writing, they are involved in duplicate profiles with a profusion of confusion about the first and last names of James/John Cobb/Cole, and sources are lacking. We are going with the evidence currently at hand. Dellinger-332

Research Notes for Find a Grave

At Find a Grave, there is a note that indicates that the 1653 date belongs to a different Mary Cole, and this Mary Cole was born in 1654^[5]

• Fact: Buried at Lothrop Cemetery in Barnstable, MA
• Fact: Burial (1695) Barnstable, Barnstable, Massachusetts, United States of America
• Fact: http://familysearch.org/v1/LifeSketch Why this person had "master record" in suffix I do not know. But it will cause problems of having parentheses in the name field so I removed it and am noting it here.
