Henry Hobbs b 1820-22 Bridgewater Somerset
« on: Friday 02 May 14 20:41 BST (UK) »
Looking for any information on Henry Hobbs who was born in the Bridgewater area between 1820-22. His father was John Hobbs. I believe that Henry moved to South Wales in the late 1830s where he married his wife Marianne in 1839.  Any information about the family in Bridgewater in the early 1800s would be appreciated.

Henry's birthyear seems to vary although his birthplace is consistent

1851 - b 1818
1861 - b 1822
1871 - b 1818

Are you aware that there are 2 Henry Hobbs with wife Mary both living in St Woollas and both b Somerset?  The other Henry was b c1824

Which child of Henry's are you descended from?
