Biography

Susanna Cole was born in 1698, the daughter of John and Susanna (Gray) Cole of Plymouth, Massachusetts.

In 1717, she married Robert Harlow, son of William and Lydia (Cushman) Harlow of Plymouth, Massachusetts^{[1] [2]} (On 16 September 1724, Susannah made her mark, and her husband, Robert Harlow signed his name to a receipt from Susannah's mother for her father's estate.^[3]). Their children included:

1. Ebenezer, born 16 April 1719 ^{[1] [2]}
2. Benjamin, born 12 September 1723^{[1] [2]}
3. Isaac, born 3 August 1725^{[1] [2]}
4. Robert, born 30 January 1728^{[1] [2]}
5. Reuben (Ruben), born 5 April 1730^{[1] [2]}
6. James, born 7 December 1732)^{[1] [2]}

Notes

Observe care not to confuse this person with Susanna (Cole; 1696-1725) of Swansea, daughter of Susannah (Briggs) and a different John Cole (1660-1748). The other Susanna Cole married George Round. The fathers of both Susanna Coles (both named John Cole) were cousins, both born in Plymouth, both with spouses with given name Susannah.

The birth data on this Susannah (Cole) Harlow were previously confused/conflated with the daughter of the Swansea family group. The FAG online memorial site probably is more accurate, showing this Susannah born in 1698, death 17 Feb 1748, both in the Plymouth/Plympton area ^[5].
