Stephen H. Bibb<\/strong>, a prominent farmer residing in the northern part of
\nLauderdale County, was born in Rockingham County, N.C., July 30, 1833, and was
\nthe tenth child of eleven children, nine of whom lived to be grown, born to
\nRichard C. and Margary (Hooper) Bibb. Both parents were born in North
\nCarolina, and came to Tipton County, Tenn., in 1840. The father was a
\ncarpenter, but gave his time to farming; he died on Knob Creek in Lauderdale
\ncounty, in 1861, and the mother died at the homestead on Knob Creek, in 1862.
\nOur subject was raised and educated on a farm, and has made farming his
\nbusiness. In 1862 he enlisted in the Confederate Army, with Gen. Chalmer’s
\nbrigade of cavalry, but after serving eighteen months was discharged on
\naccount of ill-health. January 31, 1856, he was married in this county to Miss
\nMartha E. Forbest, and to this union were born Mary A., September 7, 1857;
\nWilliam R., born May 12, 1861, and Stephen R., born October 15, 1862. The
\nlatter married Miss Martha C. Childress, daughter of J. F. Childress, and to
\nthem were born four children at two births. Mrs. Bibb was born near
\nBloomfield, Ill., and died December 26, 1865, and our subject was married the
\nsecond time in Lauderdale County, February 10, 1867, to Mrs. Nancy W. Edney.
\nShe had one son by her former marriage — John G. Edney, born June 8, 1862.
\nMrs. Bibb was a native of this county, born June 16, 1842, a daughter of
\nSquire Thomas J. Childress, a very prominent farmer of his locality. Our
\nsubject is a Democrat, casting his first presidential vote for James Buchanan;
\nhe is a Mason, and with his wife belongs to the Methodist Church South. Mr.
\nBibb has a good farm ten miles north of Ripley. He is a quiet, industrious
