to work in Bedford, Indiana. It was there he met and married Rachel, and their first two children were born there. Her family had originally moved from Kentucky to Oklahoma, living for many years in Oklahoma, before moving to Indiana. When the family decided to move back to Oklahoma, Rachel was expecting her third child, and didn't want to be so far away from her folks when she gave birth. So, she, Don and their two children also moved to Oklahoma. Shortly after they moved there, Don died of "leaky heart valves," a month before their baby was born. Rachel had never met Don's parents, who were in Kentucky (unless maybe it was when she was a child). She eventually made a trip to Kentucky and met Don's mother, but didn't get to meet his father (the person driving the car Rachel was in, insisted upon returning to Oklahoma too soon). Over the years, she kept in contact with her Uncle Jesse's widow, Daisy (Sasser) Cobb. Daisy was a 2nd cousin to both of Don's parents. Daisy and Jesse were living in Oklahoma when Don died, but later moved back to Kentucky. Rachel eventually moved to Redlands, California, where, presumably, she stayed for the remainder of her life. |

re Cuz Pat (Grant) Cooper, a ~Cobb and a Sasser descendant~ |
Pat's's grandfather, John Cobb, was a half- brother to Mary Jane's father, Jim Cobb, but Pat and Mary Jane never actually knew each other well. ~ IT'S A SMALL WORLD: Pat and her husband, Dan, lived in California for some 30 years. Dan worked with a "Mr. Sousa" at the same workplace for many of those years before they discovered that, ironically, both of them were married into the very same Kentucky-founded Cobb family! |
