The Body family have another link to Australia through Jane Body (b. 1829) who married Charles Dilnot Hobbs in 1856. They were in New South Wales and had 4 children born there.
•   Richard F Hobbs born & died 1857 Sydney
•   Charles G Hobbs born 1858 Kingston NSW
•   William J Hobbs born 1860 Kingston NSW
•   Mary J Hobbs born 1862 Kingston NSW
The family then return to England and Charles Dilnot Hobbs re-married in 1868 to Esther Tuck and goes on to have about 8 more children. I don’t know when Jane, his first wife died – could not see a death in NSW.
