Hi,
I'm searching for my Grandfather's older brother, Andrew Archer (or Soutar) Cobb. He was born in Coupar Angus, Perthshire, Scotland and his parents were Henry Cobb and Margaret Ferguson.
I'm also looking for his sister, Elizabeth Mary Cobb, born 6 Jan 1876 in Coupar Angus.
Both of them are on the 1901 Census but after that I can't find any records of them. The rest of the family is buried at the Abbey Church in Coupar Angus, but these two are missing.
Any info gratefully received!
Would be most grateful for any info on Elizabeth Gilbert who married Henry
William Cobb (1771-1828) about 1808 in the Ivychurch/Lydd, Kent, England
area. Could her parents be John Gilbert (1749-1825) & Catherine Sheppard
(1752-1823)? Thanks.

I would be grateful for any help in straightening out some discrepencies in
the descendants of Robert Cobb who married Amey Godfrey 1766 in Upper
Hardres, Kent, ENG. One problem is which Cobb daughter married Rev (Edward?)
Naires. "Cobbs of Kent" has daughter Cecilia Cobb marrying "The Reverend
Naires of Newchurch Kent". A DENNE and a NARE website have Rev. Edward
Nares marrying Cecilia Denne 7 June 1830 in Lydd, Kent, England. This
Cecilia Denne would be a granddaughter of Robert & Amey Cobb. Are there two
different Naires/Nares individuals marrying two different Cobb women or are
they the same person? Thanks for any info on this Cobb family.

I would be grateful for any help in straightening out some discrepencies in
the descendants of Robert Cobb who married Amey Godfrey 1766 in Upper
Hardres, Kent, ENG. One problem is which Cobb daughter married Captain
Valence/Rev Wm Vallance. "Cobbs of Kent" has Louisa Cobb marrying "Captain
Valence of the Royal Navy". However other sources have daughter Katherine
Cobb marrying Davidf Denne in 1788 and their daughter, Elizabeth Denne
marrying "Rev. William Vallance MA, Perpetual Curate of Maidstone". Are
these Valence/Vallance men the same person? who married which Cobb? How does
this (these?) Cobb relate to Robert Cobb & Amey Godfrey? Thanks.

You are correct. I've done a study and discovered that from 1840 to 1930, every Cobb found in Mason Co, KY was descended from the same man ... Francis Cobb, born 1791 in England.
Lula's parents were Isaac S. Cobb and Ella Maude Edgington, who married in Mason Co Sep 3, 1888.
Isaac was the son of William Cobb and Louisa E. Hasleur who married in Mason Co on Jan 26, 1850.
William was the son of Francis and his first wife Elizabeth Easton who married in England about 1812.

The following two men are the those that you seek (in my opinion). However, the addresses might be obsolete. I also have the phone numbers that go along with those addresses, but they appear to be obsolete.
Kenneth COBB, 240 Hickin St, Rittman OH 44270
Christopher J. GEBHARDT, 315 Leroy St, Ferndale, MI 48220 (born 04-05-1969)
Various addresses are sold by PrivateEye.com, but I got these for free from ZabaSearch.

Whenever I see mention of a Cobb family in Franklin County, MA, I wonder if there could be a connection to my Cobbs. In the 1820 census there is a Barney or Varney Cobb living in Franklin County. In the 1830 census there is a Barney Cobb listed in Bedford, Cuyahoga County, OH, which is where my great-grandfather Alexis Cobb was born in 1830, and no longer a Barney or Varney in Franklin County. I have found a John and Betsy Cobb in Franklin County, MA who had a son Alexis, but from the date of his birth, he could not be my Alexis. Since the name Alexis was fairly rare at that time, I have always felt there was some relationship between the two families, but have been unable to make the connection. I would appreciate any help you can give with this "brick wall"
