History
George Cole was born to Ezra Peck Cole and Violet May Cole (nee Rogers) in 1927 in Moncton, New Brunswick. Both of George's parents were originally from New Brunswick, and had moved to the Queen's Park, Saskatchewan district before he was born. However, George's mother had returned to New Brunswick for her parents' anniversary, and decided that it would be unwise to make the two week return train journey, so waited in New Brunswick until George's birth. George was educated in the Queen's Park S.D., and farmed for most of his life. He married his wife, Margaret, in 1950.
