  • COLE, MARTIN REC E 30 IL US INF COLLINS
    COLE, MARTIN REC H 95 IL US INF MC HENRY
• Married Margaret Ann Tompkins on June 20, 1861 in Henry County, Illinois. We believe she is the daughter of Alfred Tompkins and Nancy McCaslin. There is a good chance she is the M.A. Cole, age 27, with two Cole children living with Claudius Tompkins in 1870 in Henry County, IL. Perhaps meaning that Martin V. Cole died during the Civil War?
