    River Virginia

    This record is in possession of Bobbitt descendant Barney Morine,
    Junior in Illinois near Putnam County where Isham Drury Bobbitt,
    Junior died and is buried.

    William Bobbett arrived from Suffolk County, England to Virginia on the
    Martha in early 1674

    Passenger and Immigrants Lists Index, 1500's to 1900's:
    Name: Wm. Bobett
    Year: 1674
    Place: Virginia
    Not married, no wife's name given

    The Joanna Sturdivant question:
    Calvin Kyle, Bobbitt has said:
    We do not know the maiden name for the wife of William Bobbitt Senior,
    but believe it was Joanna Sturdivant and that she was called "Anna."

    According to the Sturdivant Family, John Sturdivant Descendants
    The earliest record of John Sturdivant in the New World was in
    1652 in which he was granted land in what is now Chesterfield
    County, Virginia. He was married to Sarah Hallom, daughter of
    Robert Hallom, by 1660, around which time they were living in
    Charles City County. John and Sarah had 5 children, All Boys,
    between 1662 and 1672.

    John Sturdivant
    23 February 1652
    Location: Henrico County
    Description: 600 acres

    The 1820 Campbell County, Virginia Census has Joanna Sturdivant,
    daughter of William Sturdivant, a hundred years after the wife of William
    Bobbett passed away.

    Obviously someone made a type-O and wrote 1754 as 1674 and this is
    where all of this Joanna or Anna Sturdivant married William Bobbett started.

    WILL BOBBETT, 96 A., 3 R., 24 P., Chas. City Co., S. side Appomatock
    Riv., neigh., Mr. Whittington; & Cattale Br., 27 Oct. 1673, p. 181.
    Trans. of 2 pers: John Lead, Richard Tonstall.

    The land survey indicates that William Bobbett had a close neighbor,
    Mr. Whittington, and their land shared boundary lines.

    Someone online asked:
    Who are William Bobbett's other neighbors? One of their daughters
    could have married him? No.

    Good questions but neighbors in 1673 were few and far between and
    the boundary lines show this. Also, this submitter has more information
    of who married William Bobbett than is being shared here on the internet.

    This submitter's Bobbitt family had not ever heard of our William Bobbett
    marrying a Joanna or Anna Sturdivant

    Plus, our Bobbitt family has proven Suffolk, England heritage and has
    family heirlooms and traditions from Suffolk, England. We are not from
    Wales.

    This submitter's 2nd great grandfather William W. Bobbitt wrote:
    "Mr. Whittington/Withington next door to William Bobbett had daughters,
    and he handled some of William Bobbett's affairs in Virginia. William
    Bobbett married one of Mr. Whittington's daughters."

    This submitter's great grandmother Ida Belle Bobbitt Funk once wrote:
    "A Miss Whittington marrying William Bobbett would be most likely,
    as in my family Bible marriage record is printed Willliam Bobbet married
    Miss Withington/Whittington."

    This submitter's cousin Barney, grandson of Ida Belle Bobbitt Funk wrote:
    "Francis Whittington was born in about 1624 in Nottingham, England and
    married Elizabeth about 1647-1650 possibly in Virginia. Francis Withington/
    Whittington had sons and daughters and one of the daughters married our
    William Bobbet."
