Hey Sparkle, Well I know my Cobbs are on my father's side, my father's last name is Avery. But I haven't yet traced that side back too far cause I've been concentrating alot on my mother's rather MAMMOTH sized family ;). But people in my father's family have done the research before and found the Cobbs, so I can ask him and get back to you. ----Original Message Follows---- From: "TwoWolvesDancing" <twowolvesdancing@comcast.net> Reply-To: CHEROKEE-L@rootsweb.com To: CHEROKEE-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [Cherokee Circle] No Indians in KY /... / Reece /Cobbs, Cobb Date: Fri, 17 Mar 2006 16:19:20 -0500 Hi Lindsey... please share your COBB/COBBS with me?

ADVICE TO LINDSEY AND OTHERS PUTTING OFF ASKING! I never gave genealogy and ancestors a thought until I began to read about different genealogy societies; but by then, my ancestors were all deceased, including my parents. I asked a few questions and got answers; unfortunately at the time, I didn't have pencil, paper or a recorder. At 74 +, I only learned within five yeas ago that my paternal Stone family dated back to a 1595 English birth and he was at Jamestown Colony, VA by 1620! My husband and our two older boys visited that "tourist trap" in Sept. 1957 to learn that Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip would be visiting the next week, and they were "busy as beavers" - dress rehearsals, making sure everything was in the proper place. The only thing that has stayed with me 'til this day was seeing that guillotine "set up"; this to punish the charged person (mostly women!). . . .the men paid with their life for crimes against their neighbors (off with their heads!) and the replicas of the three ships of Columbus was at dock along the river - off limits except to photograph them! Our children's World Books have a photograph showing the Queen's visit, (celebrating the 350th anniversary of the settling of Jamestown), but the photo is small and in b & w. I have also learned that my paternal grandfather's maternal line of Wigginton's arrived in VA in 1655 and the first known marriage to a Cherokee woman is one Elizabeth Chapman in the 1700's - does anyone know if this is a Cherokee family name or someone's imagination? Sept. 1957 is the month and year when ferry crossings on the Chesapeake Bay from Norfolk, VA to the area near Alexandria, VA gave way to the Tunnel as a crossing!
