WOW! Thank you! My dad's name is Terry Lee Cobb, birthday 11/03/1960, I am unsure where he was born, or how long he was in the Newberg area, long enough for high school I know that. He went to Newber highschool in newberg, oregon from 1974-1978, his father's name is Walden Cobb, his mother's name is Frankie Cobb (I don't know what it is short for), he has two brothers Gary and Larry, his mother and him and his siblings are registered members of thier indian tribe I think the Cherokee nation. The last time I had any contact with him was when I was 15 or 16, he was dating an australian woman and they had a daughter (so that would make me her sister), I don't remember this woman's name though. They were living on the border of the Portland and Beaverton city limits in Oregon, I have pictures if that would help at all. If you could just see if that is him and if it is tell him that his daughter Tara is looking for him and has been for the last 12 years. I would really lik!
e to get into contact with him, so if maybe (and this is a long shot) if he would give his phone number or email address so I can contact him, or if he would like my information for him to contact me if he would feel more comfortable that way. Tell him (and I am sure that he would be worried about this) but I don't want or expect anything from him, I need some family history for medical reasons it is VERY important and I would like to get into contact with the tribe so that I can enroll my children and myself. I REALLY REALLY appreciate this you have NO idea!!! Please let me know if there is anything that I can do to repay you! I will be waiting to hear from you. Oh yeah, I did find him on Classmates.com for sure he is under Terry Cobb from Newberg High School graduating class of 1978. I hope to be hearing from you soon! Thank you!

Tara,
The Walden Cobb that I found is from Kentucky and born in 1922, probably too old
to be your Walden and he didn't have 3 sons. Terry and his brothers are too
young to show up in most genealogy records and nobody has submitted a family
tree with them in it. And since they are probably still living, it's unlikely
they would be in anybody's family tree.
I did find a Terry Cobb in Portland, OR listed in the Internet telephone
directory. Here's the info. It might be worth a phone call to see if it's him.
Terry Cobb
Address Unlisted
PORTLAND, OR 97201
503) 684-4113
Suggestion: Be careful! You don't know if he wants to hear from you, and his
wife may not know about you or may not want to hear from you. People are strange!
This is not my line of Cobbs. I was just trying to help.
Good luck.
Bill

Thank you for responding as well. I am not sure that I understand. Umm, the only other information I know is that my grandmother (Frankie), my father (Terry) and his brothers (Gary and larry?) are all registered members of the Cherokee nation. This is one of the main reasons I am trying to get ahold of them is to get information for my children and I to register with our tribe, also for my children to know thier family as well. I am not sure what my grandmother's name is short for, Francesca or Francis I don't know, I know that my father went to high school in newberg, Oregon that's where my mom and him met, he has spent a great deal of his life in the portland, oregon area, at least up until I lost contact with him around the 95-96 years. I know that one of my uncles live in texas and the other one lives in california and one of them, I am not sure which one, is a paramedic. I have found my father online at classmates.com, but I don't have a paid subscription to email!
him. He is under terry cobb from newberg high school graduate of 1978. His brother gary is on there as well. I don't know where the original family, or any of them are origianlly from. Please let me help you as much as I can, ask me direct questions and I will do my best to answer them with the information I know. I don't know what my grandmother's maiden name is, and I know that would help alot. I look forward to hearing from you ASAP!!! Again, I really appreciate any help! God bless.

My current research is concentrated on determining the parents and siblings of my 2nd Great-Grandfathers, William Henry COBB (1833-1901) and Caleb COCHRAN (1819-1903). I feel that they were both only one of several children, and I wish to determine the names of their siblings. William Henry COBB's death certificate indicates that his father was William COBB, born abt. 1796 in Pennsylvania. His wife's name was Elizabeth, born about 1803.
William Henry COBB, b. August 1833, in Roane County, Virginia; d. March 23, 1901, at Charleston(Kanawha County), West Virginia. He apparently lived, and farmed, most of his life in Roane County, (formerly a part of Kanawha County) in the state of Virginia, which became the State of West Virginia in 1863. He married Barbara Ellen STARCHER (1837-1911), on August 17, 1852, in Glenville (Gilmer County), Virginia. Their off-spring are included in the Descendants of William Henry COBB report at the bottom of this page. He joined the Union Army in the War Between the States and served with Company A, 13th Regiment of the West Virginia Volunteer Infantry. He participated in the Lynchburg (VA) raid, and was disabled during that military engagement. William Henry Cobb and Barbara Ellen STARCHER had children. One of them was:
My Great-Grandfather, Daniel M. COBB b. June 15, 1858 in Roane County, Virginia. His date and place of death are unknown by me, at present. He married Prissilla BISHOP (1866-1956), daughter of A. BISHOP, b. 1823 in Kentucky, and Louisa KING, b. 1826 in Kentucky. Daniel and Prissilla had children. One of them was:
My Grandfather, Okey Warren COBB b. April 4, 1888, at Ward (Kanawha County), West Virginia. He died December 23, 1918, in a coal mining accident, at Ward. He married Agnes M. TUCKER (1890-1948), daughter of Herod TUCKER and Victoria SELBY. They had children, one of whom was:
My father, Charles William COBB, b. February 16, 1916, at Ward (Kanawha County), West Virginia d. December 12, 1976, at South Charleston (Kanawha County), West Viginia. m. Lucy Maxine COCHRAN on March 10, 1939, at Hugheston (Kanawha County), West Virginia. She was the daughter of William COCHRAN and Myrtle SNODGRASS. Charles William COBB and Lucy Maxine COCHRAN had five (5) children, one of whom was yours truly: Charles Richard COBB b. March 23, 1942, at Ward, West Virginia.
m. Carol Kay DIVELY at Crafton, Pennsylvania, on January 4, 1964.
They had one child:
My son, Charles Richard COBB, II b. June 1, 1966 m. Demetra Jean EVANS b. December 28, 1968, at Rome (Floyd County), Georgia. m. October 8, 1994, at Cartersville (Bartow County), Georgia. Their son: Collin Evans COBB b. January 22, 1998, at Marietta (Cobb County), Georgia.
So, there. You now know what I know.
My current research goals are: (1) to connect all of the COBB-lines related to this William Henry COBB and this Caleb COCHRAN, in order to locate all of my unknown relatives. Could my William Henry COBB be related to Dr. William COBB of Clendenin, WV, or to Fleming COBB, indian fighter, both of whom were early settlers in the Kanawha River and Elk River valleys of western Virginia? (2) to determine the parents of this William Henry COBB and the names of his other brothers and sisters. (3) to determine the port-of-entry to the United States and the country of origin for these COBB and COCHRAN lines, and (4) to expand my knowledge of my mother's family - the COCHRAN-line.
I offer these data with the hope that future generations of these COBB and COCHRAN lines will appreciate my effort, while enjoying a look back at their ancestors.
I wish God's love and care on each member of these COBB and COCHRAN lines who may visit here. All other visitors are warmly welcomed.
