NOTES

1. See Richard H. Benson's The Barent Jacobsen Cool Family for correct lineages.
2. Cornelis was grandson of Leendert (#1), not his son.
3. Leendert was a cousin of Cornelis (#2), not his son.
4. Baptismal date was actually 31 May 1741. Pat Walker believed this was John Cooley of Stokes County. Not only is that incorrect, but so is Johannes' lineage.
5. No note.
6. Peter was son of English immigrant John Cooley (1731-1801) of Portsmouth, Ohio.
7. Francis was of the Pennsylvania Cluster (CF04) and probably closely related, DNA tells us, to Robert (#27).
8. Josias was son of David Cool and Eleonora Westfall, and grandson of Willem L. Cool (1689-) and Catrinjen du Bois. See http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=DESC&db=cole_goodwin&id=I69.
9. Hamil's "Boone companion." In fact, the William Cooley who accompanied Boone into the Kentucky wilderness has not been identified.
10. No note.
11. John Andrew Cooley was Lura Hamil's great-grandfather. Primary and secondary documentation shows that his parents were William Cooley and Elizabeth Firmin (CF10).
12. Robert's family doesn't remotely resemble this. A well-documented family group sheet is found at http://freepages.misc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~shopefamily/Tree/famf50.html. See that for his true lineage and descendants. His father is represented as FTDNA kit #97024 in the Cole-Coles DNA Project.
13. John Coles parents were Willem L. Cool (1689-) and Catrinjen du Bois.
14. DNA test results for John are forthcoming.
15-16. No notes.
17. A descendant of Daniell Cooley of Maryland (CF04).
18. John is of the Stokes County Cooleys (CF01).
19. Joseph had no known middle name. His first wife's name is unknown. His seconed wife was Kaziah Casey. As is true with his "brothers," his birth year is wrong. Joseph was the father of John (#18).
20-21. No notes.
22. The Ray County, MO Daniel was born in 1765, m1 Mildred Ball m2 Elizabeth Grundy.
23. No notes.
24. Joseph Tucker Cooley of Bland Co VA was a son of Thadeus Cooley (CF02).
25. James Cooley's family and descendants were provided to Hamil and to Mortimer E. Cooley by Mildred Cooley Tallant, whose work is still highly regarded. James was her great-grandfather.
26. This is the James Cooley of Madison County, KY who married Patience Baker.
27. If this is the Robert of the 1790 Luzerne, PA census, as Hamil claimed, then he was of the Pennsylvania Cluster (CF04) and probably closely related to Francis (#7). Robert died in 1794.
