Notes for Phebe Clark COSART

Joshua's second wife; on his pension records, her prior name is Cosart.
Florence Whitehead thought she originally may have been a Clark who had married and become a widow of a Cosart, and then had married Joshua Marsh, but she was unable to substantiate this.
There was a Phebe Cosart (Cosad), born to Job and Hannah Cosad. She is listed in Early Germans of New Jersey, page 309, without a birth date. Her mother, Hannah, is shown as born in 1733, however, which would place her in the right
generation to have married Joshua Marsh who was born 7 September 1747. That Phebe Cosad's father, Job, was brother of Samuel Cosad. Samuel's first wife was an Ann Clark, and his second wife was a Persilla Burt. His will, dated 15 Feb 1806, probated
5 March 1811, shows him as at Mendham, N.J. and there are other marriages which united families of the Mendham and Westfield, N.J. areas.
