COTELLE.
Peter Cotelle was a Frenchman. He resided in the easterly
part of the West Parish, ,in a small gambrel-roofed house,
embowered in trees and shrubbery—an exquisite little place which
he took pleasure in adorning. He was a tinker, shrewd in making
a trade, and it is said that he would take advantage of his presumed
imperfect knowledge of English, to drive a hard bargain.
He also kept a small grocery store. He has descendants.

He was not of Plymouth in 1627. Whither he i-emoved or went
hence is unknown. There was a Robert Cannon of New London,
in 1678, and one of the same name in Essex County in 1680,
wliose wife's name was Sarah. Mr. Savage states that there was
one of the name in Sandwich as early as 1650. Capt. John
Cannon was of Norwalk, Conn., 1750.
The earliest record of the name in Barnstable is April 12,
1691, where Joanna Cannon joined the church. On the following
Sabbath her children, John, Philip, Timothy, Nathan, and Elizabeth,
were baptized. Of these, Timothy is again named on the
records. He married, Nov. 9, 1711, Elizabeth, widow of Isaac
