Title: George Hobson Faily Photos
Post by: Jumbuck on Monday 29 June 09 13:07 BST (UK)
Amonst a bundle of old photos (1904 -10) are photos of George HOBSON and presumably his family (and friends). They seem to be from the area of Blackrock and if anyone has any connection to the family please contact me.

Kind Regards
Peter Euston

Hi Peter,

    I have a George Hobson in my family.  Do you know the date and where the pictures were taken?  I just joined this web site today to bear with me.

Thanks,

Cathy

Hi Peter,
My G-Gfather was a George Hobson, b. Jun 1851 Sheffield, Yorkshire, England; d. 7 Sep 1911 in Meriden, New Haven, Connecticut, USA.  I have no photos of this gentleman.  He was married to Ann Agnes ("Annie") Courtney of Handsworth, England.  He immigrated to the US in 1868; she in 1874. I don't really see any familiar traits in the photo you provided. However, I'd be very interested if you have anything that might connect my George Hobson to your photos.
Regards,
   Jim

Hi
These photos would be very interesting. George Hobson was the brother of my great grandmother Eleanor Brittain née Hobson.
All the best!
Eddie

Hello Peter,
I do not believe your photo is of my g-gfather George Hobson.  Good luck.

Dear Peter,

I just thought you'd like to know that Richard Hobson kindly sent me the albums you sent him.  I've scanned them and returned them to Richard.  You can view them online at

Hopefully someone will see them and provide a bit more info.
Again
Many thanks for your help.
