Notes

Updated March 18, 2023. Compiled by Howder (www.howderfamily.com) from the following source(s):

(1) McLellan, Hugh Davis. History of Gorham, Me. Portland, Maine, United States, Smith & Sale, printers, 1903. Pages 488-489.

"Chipman COBB, in common with the other COBBs of Gorham, traced his descent from Dea. Henry COBB of Eastham, who came from England in 1629, and settled finally at Barnstable, Mass. He was the oldest son of Samuel COBB, who was born in Barnstable, April 6, 1686, married Abigail STUART, and came with his family to Falmouth (Portland), where he was one of the early settlers. Chipman, born Mar. 5, 1709, came with his father, and was admitted an inhabitant of Falmouth, April 22, 1728, being then nineteen years of age. He married Elizabeth ——. They were living on the Neck, east of Clay Cove in 1734. In 1765 he married a second wife, Mrs. Mary (BLOOM) (GREEN) HALL, widow of Ebenezer HALL. Mr. COBB's name appears on a Gorham tax bill for 1773. A tax of 21P, 19s, 4d, 1f, was levied for contingent expenses of the town, Dec. 28, 1775: of this COBB’s assessment was in all 9d; no poll. In January 1783, he being then of Gorham, signs a deed to Jonathan FREEMAN, of land in Falmouth. He lived in Gorham with his son Andrew on a lot of fifty acres since owned by the heirs of Thomas MULLOY. His house stood on the southeast side of a small brook, a few rods from the town road, where the hollow left by the cellar may still be seen. His great grandson, Isaac COBB of Portland, tells us that the old gentleman well remembered the Indian wars, and used to relate many thrilling incidents in relation to them. He and his wife were taken care of in their last days by their grandson Ebenezer. They were both living as late as 1792, and probably died between that time and 1798. He was living in 1795. We have no record of the death of either. They were both buried in the old cemetery at the village."
