John H. or C. Cobb AL>GA>MO 1844-1921
My g-g-granddad, John Cobb b. June 12, 1844 somewhere in AL, m. 1)Martha
Coggins-Mann, b. 1844 in NC, with whom he had 5 children:
*Kesiah m. Fulton Baxter Trotter
*James Tatton
*William Henry
*Sarah Rosetta
*John Walter
and 2)Fannie House,b. 1870-71 in AL with whom he had 7 more children:
*Annie m. ? Bond
*Lee
*Charles
*Bessie m. ? Stallings
*Robert
*William
*Rose
John lived with Martha in Bartow County, GA where he hired out as a farm
hand and possibly Fulton County, GA. I found him and Martha also living in
Dade County, GA where he was working as a 'fireman engineer' for the Durham
Coal Mines on Sand Mtn.
On the 1900 census, John was living in the Seminole District of Chattooga
County, GA with wife, Fannie, where he worked in the mines. And, in the
later years of his life he had moved and resided in Dunklin County, MO where
again, he was back to farming.
He died on Oct 6, 1921 in Mississippi County, AR. Is there anyone familiar
with this Cobb line who could help fill in the blanks and take me further
back on this branch of the tree? Sure would appreciate any help.
