Probably born in Georgia Militia District #678 in Chattahoochee County, where he is found with his parents on the 1860 census. Son of James M. & Isabella (LEE) COBB, who mad married 1851 in Muscogee County, Georgia; Henry's father Jim had previously been married, in 1844 in Muscogee, to Elizabeth "Betty" McNORTON / McNaughton - she evidently died before the 1850 census. The portion of Muscogee County that the family resided in became Chattahoochee County on 13 FEB 1854. Henry appears as H. W. COBB, aged 11 years, with his parents on the Township 4, Range 14, in 1870 census of Covington County, Alabama.

Henry married 10 OCT 1879 in Esambia County, Alabama, to Matilda WEBB Father of at least ten children.

The 1900 census of Precinct 7, Brooklyn, in Conecuh County, Alabama, shows Henry W. COBB was born Mar. 1866 in Georgia, but that year is clearly in error, as he appears, aged 1 year, in his parents’ 1860 census household in Chattahoochee County, Georgia. He died between 1902 and 1909.

Half-sister: Emily Adeline COBB

Brother: George Washington COBB

Brother: John Hosey COBB

Maternal grandfather: Burrell LEE
