William was baptised at St Mary Magdalen Milk Street, London, on 9 December 1621. [2]
Research Note:
This William Cole and his family appear to have no connection to the Cole family of Enniskillen, as erroneously supposed in many family trees.
This person had been listed as "William James Cole" and linked to William Cole of Enniskillen. However, this William Cole is not the son of William Cole of Enniskillen, nor is he the James Cole in Arden's Cole genealogy. [3]. [4]

the years given for Susan Bale 1574-1609 are a generation too early for William Cole who must have been born about 1600, given his father William was born 1583, died 1611
There is only a very distant family connection between this person and the Captain William Cole of Enniskillen whose portrait has been attached to this profile
Sir William James Cole and his brother Humphrey Cole are apparently sons of Sir William James Cole Sr. (1546?-1623) of Tillingham, Essex, but I haven't yet found if he has a Wikitree profile.
have removed Susan as spouse - she may have married another William or James Cole https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Bale-3
