Good Morning Everyone. Now that we have our COBBS/COBB line fairly set... I am trying to fill in the WHITE side on the family... this is the side of the family where the old English, Welsh, Scots, Irish, Picts, Celts, and other ancient cultures come into our family. I lived in Pennsylvania USA... not too far from Gwynedd, North Wales, Montgomery_ville where I learned more about the old countries from whence they derived their names.



I am looking for a few reliable sources of this old WHITE Family going back from Richard WHITE and Helen KIRTON. I picked this family because I found a few sources that start either above or below ths family group. Richard WHITE and Helen KIRTON are my 12th great-grandparents on my father's father's side.



Ambrose and Ann (nee WHITE) COBBS came to Virginia USA in the mid-to-late 1600s. Ambrose COBBS' uncle was the Rev. Robert Hunt, First Rector of Jamestown VA. The names of our COBBS/COBB family and related families can be found on the bronze panels on the walls of Bruton Church and many of their bones were laid under the floor of the center isle of the church. They helped to build the Marston and Bruton churches.

-------------------------------------------------------



This is where the COBBS/COBBs connect to the WHITE family...



Thomas WHITE (Robert WHITE and Elizabeth INGLEFIELD) and Agnes 'Alice' ALLER

Richard WHITE (Thomas WHITE and Agnes 'Alice' ALLER) and Helen KIRTON, Marriage: 6 Jul 1538 South Petherton, Somerset, England

Richard WHITE (son of Richard WHITE and Helen KIRTON) and Alice RICH

Robert WHITE (son of Richard WHITE and Alice RICH) and Susanna BOULDEN, Marriage: 20 Nov 1599 Co. Kent, England

Many are out of Robert's marriage to Joane WEST and we are out of this marriage to Susanna BOULDEN


Ann WHITE (dau of Robert WHITE and Susanna BOULDEN) and Ambrose COBBS... are my/our 9th gr-grandparents



-------------------------------------------------------



My dad, Floyd Cobb genetically (Via DNA Test) connected to Ambrose and Ann WHITE (dau of Robert WHITE and Susanna BOULDEN) COBBS. It was an exciting day for our family since it proved what we have already have known. This is the interesting part... my mom's side still has family over in Bannockburn Scotland... mostly of the Gordon Clan where they have been there as they say forever. My COBBS/COBB line goes back to Kent England and their connection to EdwardI and Edward II. This is where the differences come in whether or not one side of the family sided with the King or not. Dad's Scots' side did not and that caused problems. Dad said that they were mostly out of the Linday (COBB) and Stuart Clans.

I lost a lot of my research when my computer and stuff was stolen. I am rebuilding my files again from what I sent to my family and what help I can get on-line. This was the legacy that my father wanted to give us kids and his grandkids before he died. Dad crossed over November 2004.

Thanks for any help given in advance.
