AUTHENTIC HISTORY (in part) of the BOBO (Beaubais) FAMILY The Bobo (Beaubais) family were French Hugenots that came over From France and settled in Gardine County, Virginia (Exact date uncertain) some time in the 1730s.The record of said County shows that Spencer Bobo was the brother of Sampson Bobo and Louis Bobo. Who later moved to the Union District of South Carolina. They both left large families (mostly boys). Both Sampson and Louis were Revoluntionary War soldiers and the records of South Carolina confirm this Fact. Orange County was divided into Culpepper County in 1849. Records in Culpepper County show that Spencer Bobo and his wife sold their land and leases there. Spencer Bobo sold to Ab501em and Spencer Bobo, Jr. property in 1750 and 1763. Other records of transactions are shown in Virginia until 1772. About this time the family moved to Union District, South Carolina.
