Surnames: Cobb
I am researching the Cobb line which may have emigrated from Scotland or Ireland sometime in 1700-1720.They came
to America at Virginia or South Carolina. My earliest ancestor
was John Cobb who was born about 1740,his parents unknown,and settled near Ninety-Six,South Carolina.He served in the Patriot militia and was killed in June 1781 by
tories under "Bloody Bill"Cunningham. One of his sons was
Charles Augustus Cobb 1772-1842,my direct ancestor.If you
have information ,please feel free to contact.

Hi Bruce,
Unfortunately, I have no knowledge of any Cobbs immigrating to the USA. My earliest Cobb is Charles, married to Margaret Downie in 1763 in Scotland. If I ever break down this breakwall, you'll be amoung the first to know!

I am doing the Cobb family who came to Australia around 1855, John Cobb.
His father was also John Cobb and Mother Mary Aust.

I hope you can help me out here?, keeping my fingers crossed.
Oh he was the Proprietor of Cobb & Co in England.

Regards, Glenys.
