• Susanna Cole (née Hutchinson; 1633 – c. 1713) was the lone survivor of an Indian attack in which many of her siblings and her famed mother, Anne Hutchinson, were killed. Following the attack, she was taken captive, and held for several years before her release.

• .... On 30 December 1651 she married, in Boston, John Cole, the son of Boston innkeeper, Samuel Cole, who had established Boston's first tavern in 1634.[10][14]
• Susanna and John Cole began raising a family in Boston, but by 1663 they had gone to look after her brother's land in the Narragansett country, which was then in disputed territory, but later became North Kingstown, Rhode Island.[13] Here the Coles lived for the remainder of their lives, rearing many children.[13] The will of John Cole's father, Samuel Cole, dated 21 December 1666, left a property at Bendall's Dock in Boston to Susanna and her children to satisfy an agreement with Susanna'a brother Edward Hutchinson and uncle Samuel Hutchinson.[15] This property was leased out in 1676, and sold in 1698 for £160.[16]
• In April 1667, John Cole deeded their house in Boston to Susanna's brother Edward and uncle Samuel, signifying that they intended to remain in Narragansett.[13] They lived in the vicinity of Wickford, an area claimed by both Connecticut and Rhode Island.[13] Many of the Wickford inhabitants preferred to be under the jurisdiction of Connecticut, and in the late 1660s John Cole became a magistrate and commissioner for the area under the auspices of the Connecticut government.[13] Eventually, following many years of dispute and tension, Rhode Island was given control over the Narragansett lands, and in 1682 John Cole was made a conservator of the peace under the Rhode Island government.[13] By 1707 John had died, and Susanna and her son William were given administration of his estate during that year.[13] Susanna had died by 14 December 1713 when her son, William, "took receipts from heirs for their full proportion of estate of deceased father and mother..."[13]
• Susanna and John Cole had 11 children: Susanna, Samuel, Mary, John, Ann, a second John, Hannah, William, Francis, Elizabeth, and Elisha; at least 9 of them grew to maturity. Their oldest daughter, Susanna, married Thomas Eldred, but the fate of their oldest son, Samuel is not known.[13] Mary lived into her 60s, never marrying, and John, Jr. died as a youngster.[13] Ann married Henry Bull, the son of Jireh Bull, and grandson of Rhode Island colonial governor Henry Bull.[17] A second John grew to maturity, Hannah married Thomas Place, and William married Ann Pinder.[13] Francis grew to maturity, Elizabeth married Robert Potter, and Elisha married Elizabeth Dexter and was for many years a Deputy or Assistant in the Rhode Island colony.[13] Among her well known descendants are two aspirants to the United States Presidency: Stephen Arnold Douglas, who lost to Abraham Lincoln in the 1860 election, and Willard Mitt Romney, who lost to incumbent Barack Obama in 2012.[18] Her grandson, John Cole, the son of Elisha Cole, was a chief justice of the Rhode Island Supreme Court.
