If anyone knows of a GA county where this Cobb surname may have existed in very early GA history, please write to Floy. Let's see if we can help her connect. Floy M Kroeplin <fmk11234@texas.net> Dear Ms. Crilley, I hope, that you can help me, or know somone, who can help me. My third great grandfather was Seymour COBB. He was born in 1770. We believe, that he was born in Georgia. He married Esther LEWIS in 1794 in South Carolina. Her parents were William and Mary LEWIS. They were of the Quaker faith. Seymour COBB died on 20 May 1857 in Warren County, Indiana. Esther LEWIS COBB died in 1847 in Warren County, Indiana. They lived in Lawrence County, Indiana before they moved to Warren County, indiana. There first child was named Thomas COBB. I know, that it was the custom to name the first son for the paternal grandfather; perhaps, Seymour COBB'S father was Thomas COBB. I have gone down every road, that I know to learn the ancestry of Seymour COBB. I shall be 85 on October 17th. I am running out of time. I live on a fixed income, but I can pay a modest amount for help. Do you know anyone, that could help me ??? I thank you. Floy M. KROEPLIN P.S. Seymour COBB did not become a Member of the Quaker faith. I have tried that route.

Just ran across this, is this part of this family ? 01/07/01 Reprinted from a reunion guestbook: Bruce Griffis bgriffis@isoc.net Greetings from Cincinnati, Ohio. Enjoyed your site and great job on posting the Cobb family story. I am trying to make a connection through my gg grandfather: Caswell Seymore Cobb Ferrell. I believe that Enoch Ferrell was married to Martha ? (Cobb?) and they named their son after either Martha's brother Semer (Seymour) Cobb who was in Wayne and Lawrence Co.'s, IN in abt. 1818 and supposed to be b. 1777 in SC, or her father Semer Cobb. There is a connection to Caswell NC to the Ferrell, Dixon, and others that all were Revolutionary soliders. I find a John and Sarah Cobb in Martin Co.,NC with four sons. Dixon and Semer as possible sons. If you are interested in connecting Semer Cobb and family, please conatact me at bgriffis@isoc.net. We have a Ferrell/Cobb research group working on this now. Thanks, Might help to do a google search on this one.
