Family Story Regarding
the Meeting and Marriage of
Alexander Cobb and Elizabeth Ruth Banks

This information is from Elizabeth McNeill, daughter of Mary Ann CobbMcNeill (daughter of James Jackson A. & Elizabeth Malone Campbell Cobb).It is a written account of the meeting marriage of Alexander Cobb andElizabeth Ruth Banks:

"Alexander Cobb came from Georgia and settled near Isabella Church,Alabama. He built a plantation on Autauga Creek. He was half Indian,but didn't acknowledge the fact. He was a bachelor who fell in love withRuth Banks. She was only fourteen and he was about thirty. Her peopleobjected to him on account of his age, so they locked her up and took herclothes away at night. Ruth told Alexander that if she could ever slipout, she would. So one night when there was a big snow on the ground,she crawled out of the window and walked about two miles to his homebarefooted with a quilt wrapped around her.

It was about nine o'clock when she came to the door. Alexander wassitting up making baskets. A man and wife lived in the house withAlexander, so he put the man on a horse and told him to go for licenseand preacher. The woman put Ruth to bed and worked with her as she wasalmost frozen. Just at daybreak the preacher arrived and married them.Shortly afterward the father, Mr. Banks, his wife and Ruth's brother rodeup to the gate. They had tracked her by the bloody tracks in the snow.They were too late because Ruth and Alexander had been married about tenminutes before the family arrived. Alexander and Ruth had ninechildren: Ruth, Barthena, Telitha, Mary, John, William, James Jackson,Persilla Goss and Charles Cobb.
