(4)Newspaper. Saturday, December 12, 1908. Obituary. Death of Mr David Cole. The old residents of the district still continue to pass away, and of late scarcely an issue has been sent broadcast without containing a notice of the demise of one of the old hands. One of the latest to add to the long list who have passed over to the Great Beyond is Mr David Cole, who while on this earth was known for his honesty and uprightness of character.
Up to three months ago this sturdy old pioneer had enjoyed particularly good health,but at this period he was stricken with an ailment that eventually proved too severe for a failing constitution to cast asunder. However, he fought against it manfully, but five or six days prior to his death he was compelled to take to his bed. Even then it was never thought by his immediate relatives that his end was close at hand, and up to within a few minutes of his entering upon his long rest he was speaking cheerfully to his two daughters and a son-in-law, but all of a sudden he collapsed without warning and passed peacefully away. He died on Tuesday at his own residence at East Molong from general break up of the system.
The deceased gentleman was a native of Gloucestershire, England and when only six years of age came with his parents to Australia, and settled down with them at "Charlton", near Rockley, the residence of the late Mr Charles McPhillamy. Here he grew up into manhood, and followed farming and other pursuits. At the age of 25 he was married, and continued to work for the same old boss for another 18 years--or speaking correctly he was in his employ for something like 37 years. Later on he removed to Manildra and Garra, and after some years at those places he came to Molong, where he has resided for the past six years.
Mr Cole, who was 72 years of age at the time of his death, leaves behind a sorrowing wife and a family of ten sons and daughters to mourn their irreparable loss, and for whom the greatest sympathy is felt. They include-- Wm. R.Cole (Molong), Henry David (Cudal), Albert George (Queensland), Frederick Charles (Redbank), Mrs W.Cole (Manildra), Mrs Harry Johnson (Red Hill), Mrs Chas Denny (Mentone, Victoria), Mrs Alf Staines (Redbank) and Misses Laura May and Rose Cole (Molong). He also leaves 18 grandchildren.
The funeral took place on Wednesday and was well attended, the remains being interred in a portion of the Wesleyan cemetary. The Rev. H.L.Redman officiated at the graveside, and he was assisted by Ensign McKinnon and Capt. Fletcher of the Salvation Army.Arrived aboard "Elizabeth" on 23rd August 1841. Name registered on the ships passanger list was Coles.
John Charles 13 years.
William 11 years
David 4 years.
Henry 2 years.
Mary Ann 8 years.
Zenobia 7 years.
Five more children were born in Australia.The Cole family lived in the Bathurst District for some time in the employ of McPhillamy. William (Snr), John Charles and young Henry are buried on the hilltop at Charlton.
After their fathers death, David took his family and Mother to Molong. The majority of his family settled, made their mark, forged their own destinies and are buried in that district.1870- Living in Charlton, Rockley- NSW Electoral Rolls, 1869/1870 East Maquarie.

(3) Obituary... SISTER CATHERINE COLE, MOLONG. On Friday morning, March 6, Sister Cole who has been a faithful Soldier for sixty odd years, received the summons Home. She was eighty-three years of age and up to some days prior to her death she was able to read her beloved Bible. It was a great comfort to her loved ones to know that she did not suffer even at the last. She was not afraid of death but looked forward to it, and often spoke of the time she would be called away. Her life had a sweet and holy influence upon all who knew her. The service at the house and graveside were led by the Corps Officers. The Memorial service on the Sunday night was largely attended by relatives and friends and was a great tribute to the respect and esteem in which Sister Cole was held. Corps Sergeant-Major Dalling, Treasurer H.Cole and Sister Mrs.Johnson (Taree) were the readers.
(3a) Obituary 2..............A well known personality in these districts for nearly half a century passed to her reward on Friday last week, in the person of Mrs.Catherine Cole, widow of the late David Cole who died in 1908. The death occurred at the residence of her youngest daughter, Mrs Joseph Staines, Molong.She had been ailing for some time, but had been only three days seriously ill before passing away, the trouble being heart failure. Mrs Cole, who was nearing her 84th year was a native of Campbells River and before her marriage was a Miss Russell. After her wedding she and her husband resided at Campbells River for a time, and then moved to Rockleigh district where Mr.Cole carried on farming pursuits. They came to Meranburn 46 years ago and subsequently resided at Manildra, Garra and Redbank and eventually after her husbands death, Mrs.Cole came to reside in Molong and district with her daughters. Possessed of rare motherly instincts, Mrs.Cole always gave first consideration to the welfare of others, and she was ever ready with help and comfort in time of sickness or sorrow. She is survived by the following family: William, Mrs.W.Cole (Manildra), Mrs.H.O.Johnson (Taree), Henry (Molong), Mrs.A.Denny, (Mentone,Vic), Albert, Frederick (Orange), Mrs.Ernest Day (Copper Hill), Mrs.Alfred Staines (Mo0long), and Mrs.Joseph Staines (Molong).

With two exceptions (those who are in distant parts), all the members of the family were present at the funeral, and several were with their mother when she passed away. The funeral on Saturday was largely attended, the service at the graveside being conducted by H. and O. Worley of the Salvation Army, assisted by Pastor Evans of the Baptist Church. The silver mounted maple coffin was covered with beautiful wreaths. The funeral arrangements were carried out by Mr.A.Cole. The pall bearers were Messrs A.Staines, J.Staines (sons-in-law) Mark Cassell and A.Carter (grandsons). A short service was held at the house before the funeral started.
Obituary 3........A memorial service was held at the Salvation Army hall on
Sunday night, when there was a large attendance. The reading desk was draped in white, and several relatives and comrades wore white arm bands. The prayers, Bible readings, addresses and hymns were of an appropiate and impressive character, and at intervals many eyes were dimmed with tears. Favorite hymns of the departed were sung, including "Oh, Happy Days" and "Shall We Gather at the River". Earnest tributes were paid to the Christian life of the Sister who had gone Home. Captain H.Worley spoke on the joy of eternal life and she and her sister rendered two beautiful duets, including "I'm Coming Home".
