My last information on her was the 1870 Federal census for Wisconsin showing her at 15 years of age, domestic servant, living with Jonathan and Margaretha Brown in Granville, Milwaukee County. I'm hoping she may show up in Waukesha County in 1875. Any help will be most appreciated. Thank you.

My maiden name is Cobb... so it is interesting to track the name back... My Dad's grandfather was Osgood C. Cobb, named after his uncle, Osgood P. Chubb. Osgood Cobb died in Hardin County Iowa, where my grandpa was born. My grandpa, Gerald Nelson Cobb died in 1968 in southwest Washington, when I was 8 years old. Not too much is known about the family history beyond Osgood Cobb, who was a jeweler. It is all a learning experience. I really do appreciate any assistance at all. You have been great. Thanks!!!

Dear List, I recently found out that the Ancestry message board can be gatewayed to this mailing list. What this means, is anything posted on the message board, will also appear as a post on this list. Hopefully doing this will help all of you researchers find more connections, without having the hassle of having two places to monitor. The Gateway messages will appear like the one below. If you have any questions, please let me know.
