Surnames: Cobb Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/SRB.2ACE/5864.2 Message Board Post: Hi Dee, Are you still interested in info about these Cobbs? I'm looking for more background on Joseph W., born 1786. I know he was my great, great, great grandfather, but who were his parents? He and Charlotte had 4 daughters and 3 sons. Two sons and the parents, Joseph and Charlotte, moved to Kalamazoo and bought farmland there. The sons both died in 1850, and were buried there. This includes Zenas Nelson. The parents then returned to Stockton. My great, great grandfather, John Porter Cobb was the only remaining son. Other children included Mary Jane, Harriet Sophia, Julia Ellis Enid, and Fanny Louise or Louisa. If you have any prior lineage, or ideas of where to look, I'd greatly appreciate any help. I know where to get info on Charlotte. Thanks.
