Cobb family, Petworth
« on: Thursday 19 May 05 19:11 BST (UK) »

Hello,
    Please does anyone know of Jane Cobb b. 1788 in Petworth. Unfortunately I don't know her maiden name or her husband's first name yet.
She moved to Portsea, Hampshire and her children were born there, so maybe her husband was from that area too. I know it's a long shot, but if anyone knows of a Cobb family in the area, particularly if one of the men married a Jane I would love to hear from you.
Jane was a widow by the 1861 census.
Any information would be most welcome,
      Many thanks,
         Sally

From the IGI
WILLIAM COBB 
Spouse:  JANE PELLEM  Family
Marriage:  28 JUL 1820   Saint Marys, Portsea, Hampshire

No Cobbs born or living in Petworth on the 1861 census, but there is one Pelham
Eliza Pelham 1808  Petworth, Sussex, England Head  Dorking  Surrey Widow   
Henry Pelham 1838  Dorking, Surrey, England Son  Dorking  Surrey 

Pelham as a surname (from the 1861 census) seems to have strong roots in Sussex.

Regards
Valda

Hello Valda,
    Thank you very much for that information, I had a long list of possible marriages for Jane's possible husband, one of them being William Cobb who married Jane Pellem 1820 in Portsea. Finding a Pelham link with Petworth is great,
  Many thanks for your time and  help,
      best wishes,
         Sally
