Here is an email exchange between Edwin Goss and Ken Schneider related to this man:

Subject: Uncle Tom Cole
Date: Fri, 9 Nov 2001 17:07:16 EST

Hi Ken:
Here's something I think will be of some interest to you. I probably have
mentioned James "Hunter" Gosse before to you. He was a son of Thomas Gosse &
Mary Hannah Cole. He lived to be 101 years old and died in 1994. "Hunter" was
a nickname. Back in the 1970's his grandson, who was then in college,
interviewed him, as part of a school project, about his life in Torbay and
about what he knew about the earlier generations of his family.

Hunter's grandfather r was William Goss. He was my great grandfather. William
had two brothers Thomas and Alfred. The three brothers were partners in the
fishing and freighting business for many years. At one point they owned a
schooner which they lost when it sank. Hunter recites what his father told
him about this accident. Here is what he said:

" Anyway Skipper Tom Gosse was a Captain and they used to go freightin" They
had a schooner. Skipper Tom never had any children - only one woman. They
lost the schooner father was telling me. Uncle Alfred and father" Uncle Tom
and my grandfather, Bill was his name, they lost the schooner. They had
another man with them, Uncle Tom Cole, the father of the man I bought the
house from who used to live here -- where this house is now. A French vessel
came along- they were sinking - and the fishing lines they used to have - 60
fathoms - he, Uncle Tom Cole, tied a bit of lead to that and he hove that
line, the whole length of it, right across to the other steamer. Father said
he was some man. Then they tied a rope onto that and hauled them across.
Uncle Alfred, he was what they used to call " Ass" He could take a
barrel of beef, 300 lbs., out of the boat - we used to bring stuff by boat
then from town - up over the stage head 10 or 12 feet high with that over his
back, 300 lbs., and bring that up to his house. He wasn" big. Just a short,
stout man. I just knew him when I was a young fellow - he was stooped then.
Anyhow I was telling you they used to call him " Ass" This Uncle
Alfred now he didn" trouble about going aboard the boat at all. He went down
and gathered up all their clothes and tied it all in a quilt and saved their
clothes. He wasn" bothered about going on board her. When he come up the
vessel went right down on her side. All he had to do was just walk on board."

Can you identify the Tom Cole referred to? Since Hunter calls him uncle it
seems clear that he was from Hunter's mother's family...............Ed.

Ken & Ramona:
It seems like your Thomas Cole, born 1871, probably is not the Uncle Tom
Hunter Gosse refers to because it appears the sinking of the ship occurred in
1861 before he was born.[See my correction below. KCS]***

We know the three Goss brothers, Thomas, Alfred & William acquired ownership
of a two-masted brigantine, the Jane, in 1855 or 1859 (the record is unclear)
and this ship was lost at sea in 1861. I have assumed this is the ship Hunter
refers to and I assume he is mistaken in calling it a schooner. Thomas,
Alfred & William were born in 1819, 1821 & 1823. It seems likely that Uncle
Tom Cole would probably have been in their generation. If this is right then
Hunter's reference to him as uncle probable means grand uncle.

The only other record we have of a ship probably owned by the three Goss
brothers is an
1880 newspaper item which refers to a new schooner, the Greyhound, acquired
by the Messrs Goss brothers of Torbay. It seems likely this refers to the
three brothers. This is a possibility but no record has been found to i
ndicate that this ship was lost at sea.

***[My NOTE to Edward Goss(e?): CORRECTION-- My Great-Grandfather Thomas Cole was born about 1829, not 1871. He was the Grand-Uncle of Hunter Gosse ]
