1. Re: [COBB-DNA] Question??? [1]
Great work Anne! Now based on this census info, part of which I had in the database and what you've filled in, I've managed to merge some folks who were the same people with different spellings of names, etc and here is what I put together in book format.... I've left out Billy for privacy reasons.. FIRST GENERATION 1. James L. COBB GA was born in January 1840 in AL. He was a farmer between 1870 and 1910 in AL. He died after 1910 in Randolph Co AL. He was buried in Blacks Chapel, Randolph Co, AL.

My line is Jeremiah's with lineage from Joseph IOW so I don't know anything about the WV Cobbs. Probably someone just liked the name Fleming. There is a name in my maternal Gregory line that keeps reoccuring, Cummings or Commons, and I can't find if this name is meaninful or not but I think it is but I have a brick wall from 1774 back so I don't know who might be back there. Have a great day. Shelia Cobb Robbins ----- Original Message ----- From: "Betty A Harris" To:
4. Re: [COBB-DNA] Testing the DNA list [1]
I can't say whether it's significant or not. If there is any possible connection of your line to WV then possibly so. There are often a lot of names repeated across various family lines. It is more significant, I think, when a name is repeated for generations in one particular family line.

5. Re: [COBB-DNA] Question??? [1]
are you familiar with Pat Cobb Hood? I suppose so... Since Billy's test didn't connect him to any established line we have to work on a few assumptions.. 1. the ancestor, James L. Cobb who was born 1849 in GA, and doesn't show up on the 1850 census records and shows up in 1870 with a family in Clay Co, AL... was born out of wedlock or was adopted. 2. or someone else in the group of descendants that leads down to Billy was either born out of wedlock or adopted. 3. Or, this was an original immigant line t

The Jeremiah I was referring to is a brother to Alexander/Saunders Cobb and is my ggg Grandfather. This my line: Jeremiah, 1774 (?), Daniel Davenport, 1826, William Henry, 1838-43 (?), William Riley, 1871, Irvin Beasley, 1912 and me.

I don't know if I shared this with you or not but a year or so ago we were tourning the Plymouth, MA area and found a street running down to the harbor called Cobbs Corner. I'm sure it was named for some of the Barnstable Cobbs.

No, no address. And I didn't save his email address. He didn't get what he wanted (a lie) and sort of went away in a huff. What he wanted was confirmation that his data was correct. What he got was a strong recommendation to get a Cobb relative to submit a DNA sample. --- On Mon, 1/19/09, Anne Crocker wrote: From: Anne Crocker Subject: Re: [COBB-DNA] DNA Cobb Cousins: Paul, Weldon Boyles To: cobb-dna@rootsweb.com Date: Monday, January 19,

If you or anyone has a copy of the Cobbs of Isle of Wight VA and can use it to find living males today that we could ask to take the test that would be helpful. By Jeremiah, I mean Alexander's brother.. we do not have a clue as to what their father's name was.

10. Re: [COBB-DNA] Testing the DNA list [1]
OK, I was confused. I thought this had already been nailed down. I have found that my husband's family, Robbins, also came from IOW and one member of that family married a Cobb but it was probably after the Robbinses had migrated to Edgecombe District, NC. It's hard not to grasp at straws and try to get this thing decided but I know if it's not factual, it's worth nothing. Thanks for all the good work you do.

11. Re: [COBB-DNA] DNA Cobb Cousins: Paul, Weldon Boyles [1]
It would be good to have some of those German Cobbs in the DNA study, so let's encourage them to participate. There seem to be several separate families who adopted the Cobb spelling once they immigrated--a quick check of birthplace on some of the later 1800's census records can pinpoint the families. Although it seems clear now that the Guilford Cobbs are completely separate from the Orange/Caswell (i.e. Henry of Barnstable line) Cobbs, there was some confusion in several articles published in
12. Re: [COBB-DNA] Testing the DNA list [1]
Let's be careful about linking Jeremiah to Joseph of IOW at this point... Here is the reason why I suggest caution... 1. the descendants of Jeremiah and Alexander match one male, Malcolm, who claims to have been descended from Joseph of IOW... 2. various Cobb history books claim that Wm of Rocky Mount was a descendant of Joseph of IOW. But the one male we've been able to find who is descended from William does NOT match the descendants of Jeremiah or Alexander... in fact he had an entirely different hapl
13. [COBB-DNA] Possible Cobb R1b Ancestral Modal Haplotype [1]
Hello, everybody: I just wanted to show you what I have been up to, and how I think Joseph and Robert F. fit into our family tree: I'm also including a baseline haplotype (set of markers) I developed using the wonderful data at dna.ancestry.com... did you know that you can actually (temporarily) move people from group to group?! For the baseline I not only moved Joseph and Robert F. to the William RM group, but also referenced the other R1b groups. That made a sizable population, and it was usually

Within the last year a new book has come out ... "DNA Cobb Cousins" by Paul and Dorothy Boyles. Depending on the retailer the price varies beween $30-35. The money is better spent buying stock in AIG or General Motors. I have reviewed this book. In fact, Boyles went so far as to contact at least myself and Betty ... AFTER ... he had already published the book. We both encouraged him to have one of his Cobb relatives submit a sample for DNA testing. It must be clearly stated that the title of the book

22. Re: [COBB-DNA] Question??? [1]
Great work Anne! This is the kind of help we all need. Based on this info and my database I searched for a James Cobb b. ca 1840-1844 in AL and came upon one who was the son of Jesse Garner Cobb...who in 1850 lived in Randolph Co, AL... now I don't have any more info on him other than finding him in 1850 in that county with the family. But the problem with this is that Billy doesn't match the descendant of this line..... so back to the drawing board.. But, consider this... Clay and Randolph counties
23. Re: [COBB-DNA] Testing the DNA list [1]
The Cobbs, especially the Joseph IOW line, loved to use tribute names. It could used as the be the given or the middle name. For instance, Laura Munson has documented on her excellent web site that Absalom Cobb, the son of Robert Cobb and Mary Deberry, named a daughter Polly Deberry Cobb and a son Deberry Cobb. http://www.brazoriaroots.com/p3979.htm I am actually hoping to have one of Absalom's descendants contribute to the DNA project, because we don't yet have an excess of participants for this li
