I've followed this thread, hoping that someone just might have an answer to my COBB problem. I know so little about the woman I'm looking for -- most is assumption based upon comments by others. I've linked a family together whom I think are related, but I'm just NOT SURE. Could someone take on this challenge?? >1-- William Cobb ( - ) NOT PROVEN as parents > sp-Anna MNU* ( - ) " " " > 2-- Nancy E.

I have a family story/tradition saying that we do have a connection to a man called Rockybottom Smith who was NA . . . but that man has yet to be found -- he was probably born before 1800 in or close to SC and Old Pendleton District. Fingers crossed! Hope someone can help. K McGee <snip>

Hi, have information on Rockybottom Smith if he was in the Rabun - Habersham County, GA area. I wouldn't think there would be two men with that nickname.

Pat that is wonderful -- but I think that this Rocky Bottom is just a little too young (maybe by 20 years) to be mine. The area could be close enough to Lumpkin and Forsyth Counties to be a possible. This is the absolute closest we've ever come to finding ours!! Thanks so much for taking a chance that you had him and sharing the information with me!
