I am a descendant of Caroline Cobb 1810-1890 [my 4th gr. gr'dma, daughter of
Lemuel Cobb of Carver, Plymouth Co., MA 1774- ? and Polly Davis 1778-1850.

want to get a feel as to who's researching what line and what resources and
documentation are available out there . . .

TO: Christine in NW FL. - This line you show for Joseph Cobb is not correct
according to the book, THE COBB FAMILY OF ROCKY MOUNT, PINEY FLATS, TN
1613-1972. Pharoah was not born in 1624, but between 1635 and 1640, by
Virginia M. Turner. He is my line. He had brothers Benjamin and Joseph.
These names repeated every generation I think. Pharoah had a son Joseph
by 1st wife Ann. He m. 2nd Mary.
Edward was not the son of Pharoah. Nicholas Cobb was his father according
to the Wills of Isle of Wight. He may have been a younger brother of Joseph
Cobb I, as he lived close to him on Pagan Creek.
In the book COBB AND COBBS, EARLY VIRGINIANS, by John Cobb, Jr., the father
of Ambrose b. 1729 was Robert b. 1687 and his father was Ambrose b. 1662,
etc., etc. back to Ambrose b. 1603.

I am seeking information on parents, siblings of Ebenezer Cobb b. 19 June

County, PA 29 August 1905. He was married to Sarah (Sally) Ann Griffis.

P.S. I just had my son set up a web site for me for genealogy related
information. The link will is <A HREF="http://myfamilytree.hypermart.net">htt
p://myfamilytree.hypermart.net</A>.
I am searching for the parents of Mary Cobb. She may have been born
around 1813 or so, give or take a few years either way. She married
Isaac LATHROP in Jefferson county, IN in 1833. She gave birth to a
daughter, Hester, around 1835, possibly in Jefferson county. She died
sometime between then and 1840, place also unknown, as her husband
Isaac, re-married in Muscatine county, IA in that year.
COBB men living in Jefferson county, IN during the 1820-1840 time
period include Thomas (b. 1790-1800) John, Will, Henry, and Samuel
(there abt 1813). (This Thomas and John may be the ones who moved to
Jennings county, IN for the 1830 census.) There was also a Hester
Cobb who married William PERRY there in 1826 that may be related to
my Mary Cobb as she named her daughter, Hester. Thomas COBB, living
in Jefferson county in 1820, had two females living with him under
the age of 10, making him a good possibility to be the father of my
Mary.
If anyone has any information that may help me to sort these families
out, I would appreciate hearing from you. Thank you!!
Kathy

Hi Caryn,
On Ancestry.com in the Massachusetts Town Birth Records database, I found a
Silvanus COBB born October 26, 1836 in the town of Lynn, father John B. COBB,
no mother listed. If this sounds like your Silvanus COBB, contact me

COBB, Jonathan Holmes,
Son of Jonathon COBB and Sybil HOLMES
pioneer silk culturist, was born in Sharon, Mass., July 8, 1799. He was
graduated at Harvard in 1817. Becoming interested in the subject of silk
culture, he began a series of experiments which resulted in the successful
propagation and feeding of silk worms in the United States. The
Massachusetts legislature in 1831 appropriated $600 to enable Mr. Cobb to
prepare for gratuitous distribution a work on the cultivation of the
mulberry tree and the culture of silk. In 1833 the U.S. congress ordered
2000 copies of the work printed for circulation by the representatives.
Three years thereafter Mr. Cobb became superintendent of the New England
silk company at Dedham, Mass., and this company, under a protective duty on
sewing silk of forty percent, arranged to manufacture 200 pounds per week,
with a capital of $50,000. Sixteen sewing silk machines were set in motion
and the result was very encouraging, when in 1844 the factory was destroyed
by fire. From its ashes arose the great silk industry of America, which in
1890 aggregated an annual product of over $30,000,000 worth of fabrics made
from silk, and of so excellent a quality as to command a sale in foreign
countries. Mr. Cobb greatly advanced the material prosperity of his adopted
town, founding a newspaper and an institution for savings. His work, Manual
of the Mulberry Tree and the Culture of Silk, was published in 1831.
He died at Dedham, Mass., March 12, 1882.
He married to Sophia DOGGETT 26 Sep 1823
COBB, Darius,
painter, was born at Malden, Mass., Aug. 6, 1834; son of the Rev. Sylvanus
and Eunice Hale (Waite) Cobb. With his twin brother, Cyrus, he attended the
Lyman school of East Boston; afterward studied the classics under Prof. I.
N. Eyers, mathematics at the Norway liberal institute, and oratory under
Wyzeman Marshall, at the same time studying music, art and literature. In
1862 the brothers enlisted in the 44th Massachusetts infantry, doing service
in North Carolina. In their art work their great instructor was Nature. They
also received instruction from a relative and pupil of Washington Allston,
who imparted to them in their youth many valuable ideas of that master.
Cyrus chose sculpture and Darius painting. Darius was art editor of the
Boston Traveler, 1872-79, and became prominent in musical and literary
circles and on the lecture platform. Among his more noted pictures are:
portraits of Louis Agassiz (1875), and Rufus Choate (1876); "King Lear"
(1877); "Judas in the Potter's Field" (1877); "Christ Before Pilate" (1878);
"For Their Sakes" (1879); "Washington on Dorchester Heights" (1880);
portraits of Gen. B. F. Butler (1889),and Rev. Phillips Brooks (1893);
"Immortality" (1893); portraits of John A. Andrew (1894), and Charles P.
Clark (1897). In 1897, assisted by his brother Cyrus, he decorated the walls
of the banquet ball of the Tuileries, Boston, with panels illustrative of
French history. Of the nine panels he painted six: "Jeanne d'Arc"; "An
Intrigue in the Court of Louis XIII"; "Richeliea and the Mayor of Rochelle
"; "A Troublesome Edict of Louis XIV"; "The Storming of the Tuileries"; and
"The Downfall of the Second Empire." In 1898 he painted two large pictures
for the town hall at Revere, Mass., the subjects being scenes in the ride of
Paul Revere.
He married to Laura LILLIE 1 Jan 1866
Darius COBB died, 23 Apr 1919

COBB, Cyrus, sculptor, was born in Malden, Mass., Aug. 6, 1834; son of the
Rev. Sylvanus and Eunice Hale (Waite) Cobb. He was educated in the public
schools and Norway liberal institute and studied the classics under Prof. I.
N. Eyers. He served in the civil war in the 44th M. V. infantry. In 1873 he
was graduated from the Boston university law school, the first to receive
the degree of LL. B. from that institution. He was admitted to the bar and
established a successful practice, thus making possible further study and
work in art for himself and for Darius, his twin brother, according to the
plans they had formed in their youth. In 1879 he resumed the practice of his
art, having accomplished his purpose in the law, his first important
pictures being, "Jesus Condemned" (1879), and "Warren in the Old South"
(1880). He then left painting as an exclusive pursuit to his brother Darius,
while he devoted himself to sculpture. Prominent among his achievements in
this line are: bust of Benjamin P. Shillaber (1867); Soldier's monument,
erected at Cambridge, Mass., (1869); "Prosporo and Miranda" (1883); "The
Celtic Bard" (1886); bust of Gen. Philip H. Sheridan (1888); statue of
"America," heroic size, (1889); bust of the Rev. Dr. Phillips Brooks (1897);
bust of Gen. Horace Binney Sargent, for the Soldiers' home in Chelsea
(1898); and a heroic bust of Paul Revere, for the town ball of Revere, Mass.
(1898). In 1896 he received an order from Governor Wolcott for a marble bust
of the Rev. S. F. Smith, D.D., author of "America," to be placed in the
state house at Boston. In 1897 he assisted his brother, Darius, to decorate
the banquet hall in the Tuileries, a new hotel on Commonwealth avenue,
Boston, with panels illustrating the history of France. Of these, nine in
all, Cyrus painted "Catherine de Medici and Charles IX ," "Henry IV at the
Battle of Ivry," and "Napoleon and Lord Witworth." In 1898 he completed a
large alto-relief of Paul Revere starting on his famous ride, and a large
bas-relief of "Prospero and Miranda," for the Boston art club. He was
instructor of the modelling class for several seasons at the New England
conservatory. He is the author of: The Veteran of the Grand Army (1870) and
many poems and sonnets, and in 1898 was engaged in making free-hand
portraits for over thirty original sonnets to the Masters of Art, published
in 1899. He died in Alston, Mass., Jan. 29, 1903.
He was married to Emma LILLIE Jan 1, 1866
Died 1903
