grannypat Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 (edited) I have two different Hobson connections in my family. My mother's sister was a Hobson through marriage - Eric Hobson. Also one of my Father's sisters married someone named Hobson who was no relation to the other one. All from Sheffield. If this might be of interest I can get more details for you.
