The 1800 census records the entire family of Stephen Bobbitt, with the exception of Seley Bobbitt who was born in 1801. The Children of Stephen and Celah Bobbitt who lived to maturity were:
Harris Bobbitt born 1775
Arthur Bobbitt born 1776
Mary Bobbitt born 1780
Stephen Bobbitt, Jr. born 1785
Drury R. Bobbitt born 1786
Nancy Bobbitt born 1790
Amy Bobbitt born 1792
John R. Bobbitt born 1799
Seley Bobbitt born 1801
Apparently there were several children who did not live to maturity. One son born before 1790 must have died, as one son and two daughters were born after the 1790 census. Most of the children married in Warren County and their marriages are recorded.
