Charles was the 3rd of 11 children born to Hugh and Margaret (Jones) Babbitt. He was most likely born in Fulton County, Illinois as that's where his parents appeared, in Union Township there in the 1840, 1850 and 1860 census records.

His siblings were: Phoebe Jane, Sarah Ellen, William Calvin, Nancy Ann, Benjamin F., James Luther (with whom he shares a grave), Luther (1853-1860), Margaret Mary, Harvey M. and Thomas Raymond. All lived to adulthood except as noted.

NOTE: Birth date was figured by using the death date and age from the headstone. It should be noted that Ancestry family trees put his birth date as October 2, 1844 but with no attached resource record for proof.
