Hello VA-Roots. My ancestor Angelica (HUNT) COBBS' brother - Rev. Robert Hunt was the first Rector of Jamestown and it is documented that he baptized Pocahontas. Ambrose and Angelica (HUNT) COBBS's son Ambrose COBBS was our first COBBS to come here to VA in 1664. Ambrose COBBS, his wife Mary (WHITE), and their children were the first to come. He had connections with the Virginia Company and also to his uncle the Rev. Robert HUNT who served as the first Rector of Jamestown. Angelica and Robert had 2 other brothers there in Jamestown - Stephen HUNT and Thomas HUNT. Please free to connect me with other kinsmen and I have much more genealogical research and family stories to share. Looking forward to hearing from you. Peace and blessings. Dolores Cobb Phifer Hatfield, PA P.S. I understand that the original of what is now known as Cobbs Hall is located at the Library of The Univ of VA. One of my first ancestors here in America was Ambrose COBBS and his wife Mary WHITE. They eventually settled on the land which is now known as "The Point of Rocks Park" (... "Cobbs (... aka Cobbs Hall)," on the Appomattox River, below Petersburg). This land was eventfully sold to MASTERS, BURTON, and BOLLING... and LEE... all descendents of Pocahontas and John ROLFE... through their son Thomas ROLFE. Many of my ancestors' siblings and kinsmen intermarried with Pocahontas's descendents. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~cobb/ambrose.htm Here you will find my ancestors... their siblings and their descendents. You will also find Pocahontas and her decadency and how they back connect to our COBBS/COBB line. My early VA COBBS/COBB ancestors' and related kinsmen's names are among the many on the plaques hung on the walls of the Bruton Church in Colonial Williamsburg VA as well as many of them are buried under the center isle of the church there To subscribe, change options, or unsubscribe please see the instructions at http://listlva.lib.va.us/archives/va-roots.html
