Hello everyone,
I am seeking the parents, siblings, etc of Elizabeth Cobb, born ca. 1763 in
Tucker Co, W.Va.
She married Adam Minear, born ca. 1752, in Bucks Co. Pa., or St. Georges
Co., WVA. The couple had 8 children.
I have extensive files on the Minear family and will be glad to share any
information I have.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Kim Minier
PS. I am a descendant of Mary Cobb and John Dunham.

I am looking for any information on Lizzy S Cobb b1887 in LA and sister Katie F Cobb b1889 in LA, who showed up on the 1900 Ouachita Parish, LA Census with Gore Grandparents (looks like Alexander and Elizabeth Gore) attached and dated June 1900.
These two are missing links in our Cobb Family Tree. Suspected Mother: A Louellen "Luna" Gore b 9 Aug 1857 - d 16 Feb 1890. The Census Report they appear on would be about right for the time-frame as the girls would have gone to stay with grandparents after the death of their mother in Feb of 1900. Suspected Father: Nathaniel B Cobb b 1853, married Francis "Fannie" Downs in Dec 1891.
It is suspected that Lizzy may be the twin sister of Ellis James Cobb (as family stories tell of a twin) and the only close dated relative would be Ellis. Katie Cobb shows up on Ellis James Cobb's obituary in 1940 (attached) as sister. LIzzy S Cobb drops off the face of the earth as far as documentation goes after the 1900 Census with grandparents.
I am trying to find documentation or family history that soundly links these lines. I am 99% sure they are brother and sister(s) but am missing the documentation linking them. I have Census Reports dated before their birth. Next Census Report (1910)shows father with new family remarried in 1891. These girls would have been old enough to be out of the house and LIzzy could have been married by then.
Anyone having any information on these lines please contact me at TECOBBFAMILY(a)cox.net. Thank you! Cindy Cobb Smiley
