There are quite a few Bobb families in the areas of Silver Spring, Monroe, etc townships in the early 1800's. Can anyone give a hint about how they may be related? Some that I know of are of this period: John Bobb b. 1793 md 1816 to Margaret Longsdorf Michael Bobb md 1817 to Elizabeth Eichelberger Henry Bobb b. ca 1783 md to Maria [they came from York] George Bobb md to Elizabeth John Bobb b. 1780 d. 1818 The above appear to be about the same generation, then there is: Nicholas Bobb md to Catharine, He appears to be about the same genreation as several Bobbs, such as Adam Bobb, who are found in the Christ Lutheran churchbook in York. Thanks Tony
