Notes:
Data source is the 1990 book, "Moomaw-Mumma-Mumaw-Mumaugh Genealogy" compiled by Robert Austin Moomaw (deceased).
Data source was Richard I. Luht, now deceased.
Note by Doug Mumma: Richard provided decendant information for Noah which I believe was incorrect and I removed Viva Cole, William Disney Cole,and Noah Lee Cole, Jr. as his descendants from the database.
I am convinced there are several errors with the 1900 New Jersey census listing of Noah & Sarah Cole. It is hard to know who provided the information, but they were not very accurate. The listing of a son, Joseph O Cole, appears to be in error and that entry should have been recorded as "Mary B. Cole", his daughter.

Other researchers have identified the parents of the Skipper children as Parker Vernon Skipper and Mary Brown Cole. In the 1920 census, Parker is recorded as being single and living with his parents. It is unclear who was the father of Noah Skipper, born in 1919 and recorded in the 1920 census as Noah Jackson. It is unclear what happened to Paul Jackson, the husband of Mary Cole. Likewise, Mary Cole Jackson's birth location of Virginia is questionable.
