Subject:   au Bobbitts Name:   Betty Bobbitt Date Posted:   Jul 5, 02 - 1:12 AM Email:   bobdann@ozemail.com.au Message:   My name is Betty Bobbitt, my father was Hubert Bobbitt and he was born in Wake Forest North Carolina around 80+ years ago. He had a brother, Clyde, and a sister, Lena, (amongst other siblings, who I never met) but he rarely talked about his family and died before I had a chance to drill him! In 1964 my son was born with a double uvula, which I was told is common among Cherokee Indians. When I asked my father he said, yes, the family had Indian blood, but that was all I ever got out of him. As my parents are both dead, I would dearly love to know more about my family, especially my paternal grandparents. I think, after looking at your site, that I may be related to William. There are several Bobbitts in Melbourne too, I contacted them in the 80's, and they told me we had to be related, that two brothers had left England years ago, one for America, the other for Australia and that the American Bobbitt had been a sheriff in North Carolina. Dad once told me that there had been a Bobbitt, North Carolina. Near Wake Forest and no longer a town. I'm longing to know the truth about my heritage. I'm new to the net so my search is in its infancy. Any light that you could shine on the subject would be greatly appreciated. I was born in New York, Feb 7th, 1939 and have one brother, Eric, who lives in New Jersey and knows less than I do. Cheers and thanks for your time, Betty B.
