My father was Alvin Whitlock Cobb (26 October 1908-4 February 1959), born in Paskenta, Calif.
My grandfather was Alvin Lafayette Cobb Jr. (23 July 1882-21 January 1944), born in Willow, Oregon. He married Effa Maggie Whitlock (1886-1936) born in Calif.
His father was Alvin Lafayette Cobb Sr. (6 June 1818-3 October 1903), born in Kentucky.
I cannot find any additional information on A.L. Cobb Sr., other than I think his parents may have been born in Virginia.
Any help/information anyone has would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I'm looking for information on my husbands grandpa James Cecil Cobb who was born around 1905 in Mississippi. His wife's name was Elizabeth Catherine Hewes born in 1901.
His parents were James M Cobb born abt 1880 in Mississippi and his mom was Ruth B Cobb (not sure of her maiden name).
I believe that James M Cobb's dad was from Georgia and his mom was from Mississippi.
Ruth B Cobb's dad was from Tennessee and his mom was from Texas.
This is all the information that I have. If anyone can help me fill in the blanks, I would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks!
Eileen Dibble

I am looking for information on William W Cobb, born 23 Dec 1884 in WV. He married Hester Bryant 5 June 1915 in Charleston WV and is listed as widowed on the marriage register. I'm not sure when he died, the last information I have on him is his 1942 WW II draft registration card. I would especially like to find someone who might be able to identify pictures of him or Hester. I have several old photos that I think are of William and Hester but I am not sure.

It was a surprise to see your own name in the posts, but as you can see I havent received a message back. Could be anyone, ya know!
It really would be nice if it was my father, I have been looking for him for years.
Thank you though for "sticking your nose in" hehe, you had my heart pumping when i saw there was a reply. Not sure how I am gonna feel if I really get one from my father. but the idea that he actually may know and realize I exists and maybe looking for me is a good feeling.
Hope you find what you looking for! Have a great day! Barbe
