BOBLETT, COX -
I am looking for information on James A. BOBLETT. According to his marriage certificate
in Washington Co., Ky he was 29 in September 1857 and born in Bedfore Co., VA. I think his
father might have been John BOBLETT but I have no proof of this. There is a marriage bond
for John BOBLETT & Lydia COX in Bedford Co., Va on 12 October 1802. Would love
to hear from someone that can make a connection with this family. I have James' line to present
and will gladly share information with anyone that is interested. Thanks
