Barbara Cobb's maiden name was Fiser, not Louis. She was the daughter of Peter Feiser (Feiser-11) and Anna Maria Frey (Frey-778). Her husband's name was Joseph Friedrich/Frederick Cobb, not Frederick Felix Cobb.

This biography of their grandson Thomas Cartwright Cobb (https://books.google.com/books?id=MWbH92ZVysQC&pg=PA69&lpg=PA69&dq=%22frederick+cobb%22+fiser&source=bl&ots=3H4p65Umyh&sig=ACfU3U0aolpmiGBDG7RgxeaRRqPREF9LHw&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwijh7jKqdPiAhUBVt8KHfeMAKc4ChDoATAGegQICRAB#v=onepage&q=%22frederick%20cobb%22%20fiser&f=false), from the United Daughters of the Confederacy Patriot Ancestor Album, has more information.
