1. | Polly Atwood Snow was born on 29 Jun 1785 in Wellfleet, Barnstable County, Massachusetts, United States (daughter of Joseph Snow and Rebecca Young); died on 12 May 1836 in (unknown); was buried after 12 May 1836 in Duck Creek Cemetery, Wellfleet, Barnstable County, Massachusetts, United States. Other Events and Attributes:
Notes: Due mostly to the listing found in [Holbrook-1805a], this individual has been incorrectly identified as “Polly Atwood” by hundreds of researchers. But [Holbrook-1805b], the marriage intention filed by Daniel Cole and Polly in February of that same year, lists Polly’s full maiden name, as “Polly Atwood Snow”. Polly Atwood Snow was the daughter of Joseph and Rebecca (Young) Snow of Wellfleet, and there is ample additional evidence to indicate that Daniel Cole’s wife was, indeed, Polly Atwood Snow, rather than one of the many women from Cape Cod named Polly Atwood. First, two of their children were given the middle name “Snow” (Polly’s father’s side of the family). Second, one child was given the middle name “Young” (Polly’s mother’s side of the family). Third, Daniel Cole’s wife died in 1836 at the age of 51—putting her birth year near 1785, the same as our Ms. Snow. Polly married Daniel Cole on 19 May 1805 in Wellfleet, Barnstable County, Massachusetts, United States. Daniel (son of Daniel Cole and Susanna Collings) was born on 2 Aug 1783 in Wellfleet, Barnstable County, Massachusetts, United States; died on 1 Jan 1864 in Truro, Barnstable County, Massachusetts, United States. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart] Notes: In the marriage intention recorded by the Clerk of Barnstable County, Polly Atwood is listed as “Polly Atwood Snow”. Due to her age at the time of her marriage to Daniel Cole, this would seem to cast doubt that her maiden name was actually Atwood.Children:

2. | Joseph Snow was born in ? in (unknown); died in ? in (unknown). Other Events and Attributes:
Joseph married Rebecca Young on 9 Feb 1775 in Wellfleet, Barnstable County, Province of Massachusetts Bay. Rebecca (daughter of Jonathan Young and Rebecca Young) was born on 18 Oct 1756 in Wellfleet, Barnstable County, Province of Massachusetts Bay; died in ? in (unknown). [Group Sheet] [Family Chart] |
3. | Rebecca Young was born on 18 Oct 1756 in Wellfleet, Barnstable County, Province of Massachusetts Bay (daughter of Jonathan Young and Rebecca Young); died in ? in (unknown). Other Events and Attributes:
Notes: A second Rebecca Young exists, born in 1759 to Thomas and Mary Young of Barnstable. But this Rebecca Young appears to have married Dr. John Young in 1776, and in their marriage intention record, although very hard to read, at least one of the individuals appears to has listed themselves as, “…of Eastham”. Consequently, the evidence that our Rebecca Young is the daughter of Jonathan and Rebecca Young of Wellfleet is more likely.
