Notes
Birth
Many family trees on Ancestry and elsewhere list the birth of this person. Some suggest he died young in Massachusetts and others place his death in Woodbridge, New Jersey. I have not found any that provide a source.The closest source that I can find, a record in AGBI, shows a birthdate of 1650. However, when I trace it back to its original source, an 11 January 1911 "Genealogical" column in the Boston Transcript, I see that the birthdate is not mentioned and the reference is to the William Cottle who immigrated to the New World:
"...John (1) [Rolfe] had a daughter, Hester (2) who married John Sanders, and perhaps another daughter, Sarah (2) who married William Cottle, with a son, Joh (2), who should marry ... Mary Scullard..."
