Cobb is a historical address delivered in the early 20th century, specifically in 1917. This address was presented at a banquet organized by the American Irish Historical Society and explores the significant contributions of the Irish to the development of the Southern United States. Cobb shares a passionate reflection on his ancestry and the broader impact of Irish culture and individuals in shaping American history, especially in the South.  In this engaging and humorous address, Cobb draws on his own familial lineage to illustrate how deeply intertwined Irish heritage is with Southern culture and history. He recounts numerous historical figures of Irish descent who played pivotal roles in the early days of the American republic, from the military and political spheres to cultural contributions and the formation of communities. Through personal anecdotes and a mix of historical facts, Cobb argues against the notion that the Irish presence in the South has been overlooked or forgotten, painting a vibrant picture of the rich legacy carried forward by the descendants of Irish immigrants in their contributions to the South's character and achievements.
