Janet, Anyone you list before William 1443, is a hoax which no matter how many researchers have dispelled it, seems to refuse to die. I suspect it is a case of researchers too lazy to check facts and do their own Research. The people who foisted these lies are all probably dead, but the careless and unsuspecting perpetuate the farce. Recently Dr. Robert Cobb has travelled twice to England, hired an English Geneologist and spent months there studying the Ancestors of the "Taunton or Blacksmith Cobbs". For about two years now, myself and others have been checking and researching his findings at his request. He has found the Line back to 1271, Sandringham, Norfolk, England. That Walter 1266, Romney, Kent, England is some other Cobb Line. The "Y" DNA difference between the Cobbs of Kent and the Taunton Cobbs prove it without a doubt. Although I do have the results of Dr. Robert Cobb's research and some others (myself included) I won't put it out onto the Web or in writings in d!
eference to Robert. It is his original research, therefore his right to publish it in his own time. When Robert does publish, it should raise quite a controversy with those who never allow facts get in the way of an "Old Lie". Cliff Cobb

Ethel May, The John Cobb you directly descend from was born aft 1609, in Corfe Castle and died in 1691, Taunton, Ma. The John Cobb born Apr. 13, 1784, Orange, Ma. and died in Illinois descended from Augustine Cobb, your John's nephew. Your nearest common ancestor is Morgan Cobb b.1562, Sharnbrook, Bedfordshire, England. Your John's father and Augustine's grandfather. John born 1784 lineage would be; John 1784, Josiah 1750, William 1707, Morgan 1673, Augustine 1633, William 1605, Morgan 1562. Your lineage would be; Maurice Raye 1909, Burton J. 1868, John Burt 1835, Benjamin 1786, Morgan 1765, Isaac 1744, Morgan 1704, Morgan 1680, John 1609, Morgan 1562. Cliff

Uh,oh!! Ethelmay51 --- it appears you have several un-related Cobb families
mingled together, and that you have fallen victim to a hoax.
You can go here to separate all those families you have mixed together ...
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~cobb/
As for the hoax: There was no Walter born about 1266 in the lineage of John Cobb
of Kent. Go here to read about this hoax ...

Hi Val, Thanks for the info on John B.'s other daughters. As far as his birth date, I used the 1900 Census, which listed him born in Dec.1835, and a Certified Copy of his Death Certificate which lists his death on Feb.1,1917, in Winhall at age 82yrs. 1mo. and 28days. It lists his birth date as Dec.4,1835. The D.C. was signed by A.W. Thomas, Medical Attendant, and H.C. Williams, Winhall Town Clerk. It also lists him as the son of Benjamin Cobb born Chesterfield, New Hampshire, and Subnitti (sic) Burt born Townshend,VT. As John B.'s wife Josepha Achsah Gale was still alive (died June 7, 1933) I would assume she was the source of the D.C.'s information on his birth date. Thus with 2 sources, I entered his birth date as Dec.4,1835, in the "Descendants of Morgan Cobb 1765" and "Descendants of Morgan Cobb 1562" at Ancestry.Com. As far as Benjamin Cobb's burial place, I would look at the Cemeteries around The Rawsomville, Jamaica area as that's where he died. He might be buried wit!
h his 2nd wife Ammarilla Cressy who died later. Any other additions or corrections you may have, I'll gladly accept and check out. Cliff

Hi Cliff,
I am the great granddaughter of Ernest Leroy Cobb. My grandfather was William J "Pete" Cobb. My family still lives in South Londonderry VT and have access to the headstones of Many of our relatives. After taking pictures and researching, I found a few small errors that you may have already discovered. First John Burt Cobb had 10 children. Two daughters died at an early age according to their headstones. Etta L lived from 1862- 1865 and Anna J lived from 1874-1878. Also according to John Burt Cobb's headstone he was born in 1835 not 1836. I am wondering if you know, or know how I can find, where John's father, Benjamin may be buried. I know he died in Rawsonville VT but have not been able to locate his headstone.
Thanks,
Val
