[S41] Interview, Saundra (Tramel) Gaines, September 1992 & July 1998 & December 2002, December 2002 Interview. Saundra remembers Grandma Bobbitt once saying that she was 18 when she married. After someone suggested that she had married young, and she rather indignently retorted that she was NOT young, she was 18. If she married at 18, she would have married between late May of 1893 and May of 1894. Either way, she appears by her statement to have married no earlier than 8 months before the birth of her first child..
