Caster & Della C. Simonton Bobo
The mission of the BOBO Root Cellar is to assist the descendants of the BEAUBEAU, BABEAU, BAUBEAU, BABAU, BOBO family from France to America in tracing their roots and establishing their family tree by a sharing of genealogical and family history information.

The Bobo Root Cellar is a collection of material from various sources. Some material is based on research and reference documents and some is based on information provided by other researchers, which may or may not be proven by accepted genealogical research standards. These web pages is an attempt to bring a collection of material together as a basis for additional research.

The material found here is the work of many Bobo researchers that have submitted their research to either Robert "Bob" Gordon Bobo (1937 - 2006) or Louise Brockway Thedford administrator of this site. Bob was the "Root Tender" of the Spencer Bobo line son of Gabriel & Jane Wofford Bobo. While Louise was the "Root Tender" of Gabriel II & Elizabeth Garner Bobo line.

After Bob's passing in May 2006, Louise was asked if she would take over Bob's research and continue to keep it active and available for the Bobo researchers. She willing excepted the challenge; it more than doubled her database. The Spencer line has been a challenging one for her, but she has managed to keep it going and up to date when new information is submitted to her.

At the top of each persons individual page is a tab labeled "Suggest." This tab is a drop down box that allows you to enter corrections or additional data about that person which is sent to me with a link back to that person. This makes it easier for me to edit that persons file. Please use this tab when you have an addition or correction.

Permission is granted to quote or use the material in personal research or in preparing material for published work by a Bobo family researcher. Please give credit for material, other than your own.

PERMISSION IS NOT GIVEN neither to upload this material to other Internet sites nor to upload this material to Internet databases without the specific written permission by the author identified in the web site. This material may not be uploaded to commercial sites or for sale.


Common Login Problems

- Make sure that CAPS LOCK is not on - your User ID and Password are case sensitive.

- Is your internet browser set to accept Cookies or are the browser security settings set too high? We recommend the Medium security setting, although lower settings will work. If you are using Internet Explorer, this can be changed by clicking on the Tools menu > Internet Options > Privacy tab.

- Have you registered in the last few minutes...? If so, please wait a few minutes before trying again. Our registration systems may not have activated your account yet.

- Ensure that any firewall software (such as Zone Alarm), or other similar blocking/protection software is configured properly to allow you to access password-protected websites. This also includes programs like Google Toolbar, Norton Anti-Virus (in some cases) and Tiscali Accelerator to name a few. If you are unsure how to configure these programs, temporarily turn them off when accessing your website, or alternatively contact your network administrator.

- If you are using stored passwords (or other information) to access this website, try manually typing in this information. You may have changed this information without updating the stored version. Once you have successfully logged in, you can then update the stored information with the new login details.

The latest version of "Java Script" would also be helpful. Many websites depend on "Java Script" to run correctly.
