I don't have very much on Baalam Dobbs (Bolom, Balam, Bolam) His father was David Dobbs & Martha Griffin Dobbs was his mother. David was born about 1831. There was also a Baalam Dobbs, son of Lott Dobbs, born about 1798 (This is probably the Balam Dobbs you are looking for. He married an Elizabeth Long. There was a large family; if you need more information. Please email me. I will help if I can. Have you seen a will or probate record on either George or Joseph Pulliam? A. Smith
