How I got started

I've created this Web site so that any family member may look up and

find their family connections. My name is Octavio J.de los Cobos (Toby).

I was born in 1930 in California, raised and educated here. My Dad's

oldest sister had a family record that started with my Great Grandparents

Joaquín (born in 1817) and Bárbara Domínguez (married in 1841) and all

their descendants; they had 16 children (some died as infants), my

Grandfather, Enrique, was the youngest of these and he was the only

one that came to the U.S.A. with his family in 1913, the rest of the family

remained in Mexico. All this history encouraged me to further research the

family history. I have found/obtained copies of handwritten marriage

documents of my Great Grandparents through my 3rd Great Grandparents;
included in this last document are the names of my 4th Great Grandparents.
Christoval (wife Josefa Cavesa de Baca), was born around 1730.

All of these documents list the names of the parents of the bride and groom so

there is positive connection between these Great Grandparents.

Como comencé con ésta Genealogia

Yo he elaborado éste sitio para que miembros de la familia "de los Cobos"

puedan ver la historia de nuestra familia que he publicado aquí. Yo soy

Octavio J. de los Cobos (Tavo), nacido en California en 1930, criado y

educado aquí. Mi tía, hermana mayor de mi padre, tenía cuenta de

nuestros antepasados comenzando con mis bisabuelos, Joaquín (nacido

en 1817) y Bárbara Domínguez (casados en 1841), y sus provenientes.

Mi abuelo, Enrique, fue el menor de sus hijos y él se vino a Tejas/California

con su familia en 1913. Con toda ésta historia me animé para buscar más

historia. He hallado documentos escribidos de mano de matrimonio de mis

Bisabuelos, Tatarabuelos, y Trastarabuelos y en éste último documento

también tiene los nombres de mis 4º bisabuelos. Estos documentos tienen

los nombres de los padres de los novios y novias. Christoval (casado con

Josefa Cavesa de Baca), que él ha deber nacido como en 1730.

Acknowledgments

In my research, the Family Search Web site has helped me tremendously

in finding out about "Older" generations of family members. I have

submitted over 800 family names to this site and they have published

it on one of their "Pedigree Resource Files" CD Disc 45, which may be

purchased from them. I have also submitted, and they've published, the

Genealogy of Francisco de los Cobos which I found in the book titled

"Francisco de los Cobos, Secretary to Emperor Charles V" written by

Hayward Keniston. One of Francisco's portraits is on display at the

J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, CA and can be viewed on the

Museum Web site. Another portrait of him used to be on display, and

is now in storage, at the Prado Museum in Madrid, Spain.

My life Bio.

I was born in Calexico, CA in 1930 and went to school there through my Junior year in High School. We moved to San Diego (S.D.) where I graduated from S.D. High School, S.D. Junior College, and S.D. State College in Electronic Engineering. I was in the USAF from'51-'55, got married and had 3 children and then returned to S.D. We moved to Los Angeles (L.A.) in '64 and retired in '86. I returned to work for five more years after my divorce, the last 6 months in Tucson, AZ. I retired again and bought a house in Apple Valley, CA , which is about 50 miles north of L.A., in 1995. We lived here for 14 years till 2009 when we moved to Murrieta. Then in Dec 2016 we moved to Oceanside. My better half, Beverly, and I have been together since 1993. My oldest son lived nearby, sadly he died in 2008 of cancer, my other son lived in the L.A. area and in 2016 he moved to Oregon, and my daughter has lived in Utah since '74. Each of my kids had a boy and a girl; one of my granddaughters has two daughters, her brother and wife have a son and a daughter making me a Great grandfather.
