2 CONC omas.  She brought 2 children to the marriage, James and Joseph.  According to the story, the
2 CONC re were 2 twin boys who also belonged to her.  They were half-brothers to Amos Alonza Gaddy
2 CONC , Sr.  The story goes that while living in Alabama, these 2 twin boys were sent outside to fe
2 CONC tch the donkey.  When they went out, they found rustlers skinning one of the family cows.  Th
2 CONC e rustlers shot both boys and left them to die.  Carrie Bobbitt apparently owned the overall

2 CONC o her death.  Her husband is/was Fred Bobbitt.  (source: Ellen Gaddy)
