Jonathan Jobe Jr and Two Wives

Sarah - and Martha J. Harris

My Own Jobe Branch

Daughter of Jonathan Jobe Sr. and Sarah A. Choate

2nd cousin to my 2nd great grandfather, Jesse Jobe


Jonathan Jobe, Jr.

--b. 1818 Maury Co., TN
--d. 1878/79 Pope Co., AR
--m. Sarah --
--abt 1839 probably Mississippi
----b. 1820 Alabama
----d. 1861/70 Scott or Pope Co., AR

*IGI records gives her maiden name as Hamblyn.

*Per Donald Jobe (descenant) 2000

"I visited the Library in Russellville, Arkansas; the Arkansas History Commission in Little Rock, and the Vital REcords Division in Little Rock trying to locate a marriage record for Jonathan, or any other record that would verify his wife's name but no luck. Census records indicate her name to be Sarah, however the death certificate for Nehemiah lists her name as Mary Hamlin. That information was supplied by Robert Wilson. The only connection I can find with anyone named Wilson to the Jobe family is that Alice Jobe (daughter of William Rufus 'Bud' Jobe and grandniece of Nehemiah) was married to a Wilson.

I also visited my uncle William in Beaux Bridge, LA. He will be 96 in July and his memory is not what it used to be. He does not recall Robert Wilson. He does recall the Hamlin name from somewhere in the past, but does not remember the connection.

I guess the name of Nehemiah's mother (Sarah or Mary) will remain a mystery for a while. I can find no indication there were any half-brothers or sisters in this family."
