Message Board Post:
I've got two Murphy brothers, Nathaniel G. and Hugh, both born in NC 1800-1810. Both were in Obion Co, TN before 1850.
Nat and Hugh had a sister Elizabeth that married a Cobb in North Carolina. The Cobbs also moved to Obion sometime after 1850. Both died there before the 1860 census.
There were five Cobb children placed under the guardianship of Nathaniel G. Murphy and were listed in his household on the 1860 Obion census. All were born in NC and were Martha Elizabeth 1841 --- James H. 1845 --- John 1846 --- Mary F. 1847 --- and Hugh N. 1849.
Who can tell me just anything about any of these folks --- especially the name of the COBB father of these children, and husband of Elizabeth Murphy?

I have just subscribed to your list.
I am trying to find the COBB of whom John Cobb TERRAL was named for.
John was born in 1922 but died 23 October 2003.
Also I have a Edward Young TERRELL who married Susan J. COBB, 2 Jul 1857 in
Drew County, AR. Her parents are David Allen COBB and Elizabeth WILSON.
If you know of any other COBBS who married into the TERRELL/TERRAL line I
would really like to know.
Thanks for any assistance you can give me.

Can anyone tell me the birth, death and marriage dates for Sarah Cobb, wife of John Swingle b 12/14/1794?
Please email me at pwalkermn(a)mchsi.com.
I am very interested in this discussion on my ancestors, Unity McDade and
Absalom Cobb. I believe that she is closely connected to James McDade and
Elizabeth Wilkins. She was born January 3, 1776. She was enough older, to be the
older sister of Willaim McDade, Sr. b. April 20, 1778. Do you know when James
McDade and Elizabeth Wilkins were married?
Also, one of the daughters of James McDade, Henrietta, married Jacob Cobb. I
believe that Jacob was jprobably the brother of Absalom. NO PROOF.
The first record that I have is where Unity Cobb is listed in GA Land Lottery
in Wilkinson Co. in 1820.
I am descended from Unity's son, Jacob Wilkins Cobb b. March 5, 1800. Jacob
seemed to name his children family names:
1- James Jackson Cobb b.9-25-1827 (Could he have been named James for his g
grandfather, James McDade? where did Jackson come from?)
2- Joseph Absolem Cobb b. 8-1-1829 (Named Absolem for his grandfather? Joseph
for Absolem's brother?
3- Teresa Augusta Cobb b. 3-7-1831 (who was she named for?)
4- Green Acquilla Cobb b.8-30-1832 (Named Green for his mother's brother,
Aquilla for his father's brother)
5- Robert Emmet Cobb b. 8-29 1834 (who was he named for?)
6- William Alexander Cobb b.8-14-1836 (named for his grandmother's brothers?
named Alexander for his mother's brother?)
7- Mary Jane Cobb b. 3-5-1838 (Named Mary for grandmother; Jane for her mother
8- Avery Wheeler Cobb b.8-28-1839 (named for grandfather Avery Wheeler)
9- Jacob Wilkins Cobb b 7-6-1841 (named for father; was Jacob for the brother
of his grandfather?)
10- Unity Elizabeth Cobb b. 4-2-1843 (named for her grandmother; was
Elizabeth for her g grandmother?)
11-Ally Frances Cobb b.12-30-1845 (named for mother's aunt, Ally Frances.
named for her father's sister, Ally?)
12- John McDade Cobb. b.3-13-1847 (named for his grandmother's brother, John
McDade?)
13- Sarah Ann Martha Cobb b.7-27-1849 (named Martha for her aunt?)
14- Thomas Moore Cobb b. 11-11-1851 (Moore for his mother and grandmother)
15- Susan Katherine Cobb. b.7-12-1854 (Susan for her aunt and g grandmother?)
Any information that you could share on James Arnold McDade and Elizabeth
Wilkins would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I am also a decendant of the Absolom Cobb and Unity McDade family. Their son, Joseph b. ca 1796, was my ggggrandfather. Joseph and some of his children moved to Covington Co. AL and Joseph is buried at Bethel Cem. in Babbie, AL.
In the 1850 Marion Co. GA census records you can find Joseph and wife, Kiziere with several of their children. One of their daughters was also named Unity (Eunice), and also in the house of Joseph in 1850 was his mother, Unity Cobb, age 77.
It does seem that Unity was a popular name of this family. Would love to compare notes.
Please email me at scottiek(a)alaweb.com

Do you have any idea as to the name of John's father and mother?

Robert, I have children James c 1793, Joseph c 1796, Allie c 1798, Jacob Wilkins c 1800, Elizabeth c 1802, James Aquilla c 1805, and Nancy c 1815.
Would appear to be a match. I have a record of later Cobb-McDade marriages, but not of this one. Are you saying that Unity McDade c 1776, wife of Absilom Cobb is the daughter of James Arnold McDade and Elizabeth Wilkins? I have 3 spouses for James, but no daughter named Elizabeth Unity or Unity.
Please write me at septmcdade(a)yahoo.com. I am excited. Hopefully we can share information.

I wonder if perhaps Unity McDade is in fact a Unity Elizabeth McDade. My GGF Aquilla Cobb, b. 1805 Washington Co GA, was (per my understanding) a son of said Absalom and Unity, and had a daughter Unity Elizabeth Cobb, b.Feb 1850 (Chattahoochee Co?) GA, the younger sister of my GGF Jacob Wilkins Cobb b. March 15, 1846 Muscogee Co GA [namesake of Aquilla's brother Jacob Wilkins Cobb, b. Mar 5, 1800 (who also had a son Jacob Wilkins Cobb, b. Jul 6, 1841 in Americus GA)]. The family heavily recycled names - and here the apparent namesake is Aquilla's mother Unity - and maternal grandmother Elizabeth Wilkins McDade?

1860 Census for Chatahoochee Co, GA lists this family with 7 children including a Jacob Wilkins Cobb born c 1800.
My ancestors are James Arnold McDade born February 10, 1743/44 and Elizabeth Wilkins. Family genealogy to date does not reflect this Unity. I believe she is probably daughter of James Arnold.
Can anyone provide additional information?
