Hi folks, My site at http://www.hounsfieldhistory.net has a section under "Families" pertaining to the Cobb family being discussed here. Among the offerings include scanned copies of the family group sheets that Florence donated to the site a couple of years ago. A photograph of Elijah Cobb and others is included. I hope these will help. - Mark Wentling > Date: Sat, 20 Dec 2008 16:04:43 -0500 > From: maybelles@verizon.net > To: nyjeffer@rootsweb.com > Subject: [NYJEFFER] COBB & STEELE FAMILIES OF JEFFERSON CO. > > > > > > If anyone is interested in the Cobb family history, I donated a notebook > > that I compiled to the Genealogy Dept., Flower Memorial Library, 229 > > Washington St., Watertown, NY. > > > > Elijah Cobb's obituary stated his father as Joseph Cobb, b. in Onondaga > > Co., and John Cobb, his grandfather, born in England.. > > > > I had researched the Cobb family because Perry Soules Cobb b. 1827 > > (brother of Elijah) has a son, Madison Perry Cobb (b. 1855) who married > > Nettie Steele, b. 1859.
