Louisa McKinney Married to Cobb?

Although I have suggested in the past that the father of Richard Dickson Cobb could have been Stephen, it would appear that this is not so.The confusing item is the reference to Azariah being called the cousin of David Cobb.IFWilliam Benjamin Cobb had a son named John, which I've never seen any reference to, then this "cousinship" would make sense.Looking at the "supposed" children of William Benjamin Cobb as William B., Jerry, Arthur,Pharoah,Charles,Sylvester Young, Penelope, David, Stephen,and Tabitha, the questions is.....is this David the one that referred to Azariah as his "cousin"?If so, what cousin was he?If they were first cousins, would one of these brothers of David be Azariah's father?There are no Johns in this list of children of WM Benj.I do not know the answer to any of these questions, but perhaps the solution is to understand the questions and find an answer that can be proved.
