My g-g-grandmother, Sarah Ann Cobb, aka Annie Wilson Cobb (b. Feb 1853 MO
d. 1939 Savannah, Andrew, MO) married George Seckels 17 May 1872, in Andrew
Co., Missouri. I'm trying to identify her parents. Someone told me her
father may have been George Watson Cobb (b. Dec 1820 MO). I hope someone
may be able to help.

Any help with Joel Cobb and family would be very much appreciated.
Hi,
I saw the other posts (Richard) on line and I could not resist posting my
line.
I would like to contact someone researching the Joseph Cobb and Rachel that
left SC (Saint Marks Parish, Craven Co) and moved into Warren Co.Ga. around
1774. Did James and Rachel have only two son's (Ezekiel and James)? or were
there other children? I would really love to hear from someone researching
Ezekiel. The way he seemed to move around I would suspect that there was two
of him. Does anyone have an Ezekiel born around 1765 in their line?
Has anyone heard of the Rocky Mountain Museum at Piney Flats Tenn and if so do
they have a web site?
My connection to Richard is through Ezekiel Cobb (1765-1835) who died in
Santa Rosa County Florida (lots of descendants here) as shown below.
Hope to hear from lots of folks. Thanks, Voncille Bush

Thanks,

>>I am trying to find information on Zed L. Cobb born 3/29/1870, he was
married to Rachel Amelia Cobb. I believe he is the brother of my great
grandfather Robert S. Cobb born 6/28/1872 who was married to Letha L. Cobb.
I believe these brothers moved to LaGrange, Troup County Ga. by way of
Rome, Floyd County Ga. in the cemetary (Sexton's) records it references
Picking County Ga. could be Pickens South Carolina
>>
>>I found both their graves this weekend in LaGrange Georgia and now have a
copy of the cemetary records for LaGrange Georgia and Clay County Alabama
if anyone needs someone looked up in these records, I will be happy to do
it for you.

I'm searching for information on Cobbs who were in Muscogee County, Georgia
around 1844. My g-great-grandmother, Mary Lou Cobb, according to a
Confederate pension application in the 1920's, "was born near Columbus in the
county of Muscogee in Georgia in 1844". I know no other information about her
family, only that. She married James B. Brooks in the late 1850's and they
later moved to Alabama and Texas. I know that the Brooks family was in the
1850 census of Muscogee Co., but I've been unable to find any Cobbs there in
1850 that have a daughter named Mary Lou that is around 6 years old. In my
family, it is told that she was part Native American. I don't know if this is
true, but in photographs, she definitely has Native American features. If
anybody can help me, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Hello-- there was a mention of COBBs in Montgomery County KY, and my COBBs are
somewhat connected there. Thomas COBB, son of Samuel COBB, married Priscilla
SMITH in Owen County KY somewhere around 1800 or earlier. They had 9 children.
Does this look familiar? I have a few more name/date details if you would
like.

I have four families that supposedly moved into the Cheat River area during
the late 1770's. Samuel Cobb...John Saylor SR..John Minear...Peveler
family.
I have info on John Minear but need some insight into the Samuel Cobb, John
Saylor, and Peveler families. Family stories/folklore (no documentation)
suggest that Samuel Cobb SR married a widow Minear...Magdalene (Maggie)
Peveler Minear. Samuel Cobb JR married Sarah Saylor...youngest child of
John Saylor SR. There were several marriages between all these families.
I am convinced that there was a long standing (several generations)
relationship between all of the above families.
John Saylor SR was supposedly a blacksmith and skilled machinist. It is
said that he worked at his trade many years and when his knees began to
give out he worked with pads on them and built himself a low anvil. Surely
this was an important trade during this time. How does one locate info
concerning people of these times and their work/business?
>From what I have pieced together....the Cobb family and others stayed in
this area until about 1790 when it appears all families moved on to
Montgomery County, KY area...perhaps Jackson's Mill on the Licking River.
Sorry this is so long...but I need help and would welcome any ideas,
suggestions. Thank you all.
