    Notes 
    • [NEHGS-1871b] does not actually state that Sabra Doane (Pierce) Cole and Seth N Covell were married in Wellfleet, Barnstable County. But since they were both residents of Wellfleet at the time and their marriage was registered in Wellfleet, it seems likely that they married there. [1, 11]
