OMSS,
Old Manuscript, which we are told includes the names in the Cobbs family Bible.
(This list is said to be the same as the VOLTA list. Having told you this, remember
that it is important to understand there is not a shred of evidence that a COBBS family
bible ever existed. Said by Poole, "Perhaps it belongs under the label, "proper garniture".
Did the "Ugly Bolling" invent the COBBS bible? This does seem to have happened.")



Family Trace of Bollings.
