Robert L. Bobbitt
Robert Lee Bobbitt, Sr. (January 24, 1888 – September 14, 1972),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Social Security Death Index )〕 was an attorney and Democratic politician from San Antonio, Texas, who served in the first half of the 20th century as Speaker of the Texas House of Representatives, Attorney General of Texas, and chairman of the Texas Highway Department.
==Early life==
Named for Confederate General Robert E. Lee and called "Robert Lee," Bobbitt was born on Cobb Creek on a cotton farm and cattle ranch called Plum Hill. The specific location is near Hillsboro in Hill County north of Waco, Texas. His parents were Joseph Alderson Bobbitt (1858–1937), a native of Summersville in Nicholas County in south central West Virginia, and the former Laura Abigail Duff, originally from McNairy County in southwestern Tennessee, home of the subsequent Sheriff Buford Pusser. Joseph Alderson came with family members by covered wagon to Texas from Missouri. Bobbitt's mother died in December 1895. Almost exactly a year later, Joseph Bobbitt married 23-year-old Irene Ficklin. By 1913, Robert Lee Bobbitt, at twenty-five, was living in the family home and working on the plantation with eighteen other persons, including for a time his paternal grandfather, Captain James Tolliver Bobbitt (1836–1928) and grandmother, the former Malinda Catherine Alderson. Young Bobbitt worked in the cotton fields, where the crop was gathered and bailed and then loaded on a horse-drawn wagon. Bobbitt became particularly close to a younger half-brother, James Ficklin Bobbitt, later an attorney in Houston.
Bobbitt attended the Carlisle Military School in Arlington near Dallas, Texas. In 1911, he graduated from the University of North Texas in Denton, then a normal school for teacher training. He worked his way through college, mowing lawns, laboring in restaurants, and clerking in the library of the Texas State Capitol. In 1915, Bobbitt received his law degree from the University of Texas School of Law in Austin, having been elected president and chancellor by his law school classmates. He was affiliated with Phi Delta Phi legal fraternity.
On April 20, 1918, Bobbitt wed the former Mary Belle Westbrook (died 1971)〔 of Laredo, the seat of Webb County in south Texas. He first established his law office in Laredo but relocated in 1935 to the larger San Antonio.〔Texas Historical Commission, historical marker, near Lytle, Texas, 1974〕
