Hi Betty,
I guess you don't remember me... We talked via e-mail a week or so about
the Bibb line.
I don't know if we connect or not. All I know about the Bibb's is that
they lived on a large plantation in Alabama. After the Civil War they moved
to TX. It was in Texas that Maggie Bibb met Owen Caufield. I don't even know
Maggie's mother or father's names. Maggie is the only Bibb I have in my
records. I'm at a dead end!
I'll let you know if I come across anything else though.

Thanks, Dorothy
