Ludwell C. BIBB, a farmer of Lincoln County, is a native of Amherst County, Va., born in 1836, and is one of eight children in the family of William and Jane (PRYOR) BIBB, who were also Virginians.  The father was born in 1810, and in 1856 moved to Marshall County, Iowa, but later located in Pike County, Mo., and is now living in Lawrence County, keeping a hotel.  He was formerly a farmer, and has been married three times.   His first wife died about 1848. Ludwell C. was educated in the common schools of Virginia, and up to 1861 made his home with his father.  At that date he came to Lincoln County, where he was married a year later to Mary E., a daughter of Tarplin R. MITCHELL, who was formerly of Virginia, but an early settler of Lincoln County.  To Mr. BIBB's marriage were born seven children, five of whom are living: Addie (wife of Guy DAMRON), Blanche, Arthur, Iva and Lofton.  Mr. BIBB has an excellent farm of 300 acres, which he has earned by his own efforts.  He takes great interest in the cause of education, and votes the Democratic ticket.  He and his wife have been members of the Baptist Church for over thirty years.
