John Hobbs b about 1680 in probably England, d 1731. John Hobbs was sexton of Christ Church in 1728 in Maryland. He advertised on 8 March 1725 that he would not be responsible for Susannah's debts, she having "separated herself from him four or five years past," i.e., ca. 1720-21. (This fact is stated on p. 330 in Robert Barnes's Baltimore County Families, published by Genealogical Publishing Co., Baltimore. From Barnes's system of references, it appears that it was in Maryland Land Records for Baltimore Co., Liber IS#H, p. 225.) Six years later in his will he refers to Susannah's children that she had in her "inlopement by a certain William Powell." . Records of the Maryland Land Office show that John Hobbs Sr.'s first recorded acquisition of land was in 1722 in (then) Baltimore Co. from Caleb Dorsey. It was a part of the Dorsey tract called "New Year's Gift" (Maryland Land Office, Liber IL#A, folio 552). The records of St. John's and St. George's Parish, Md., give the birth in Dec. 1724 of a son Josias for John and Susannah Hobbs. According to John's will, this Josias was actually one of the four children that Susannah had by William Powell. Since these four were legally his heirs, he left each of them a shilling in his will. The other three by Powell were Henry, James, and Elizabeth. Soon after John Hobbs's death, his widow appeared on 28 Aug. 1731 and renounced administration of his estate and requested that Samuel Cottrell replace her (Maryland Testamentary Proceedings, Liber 29, folios 150, 151). The total value of his personal estate was œ141/3/6 (Inventories, Liber 16, folio 651, filed 20 May 1732). The greatest creditors were Phil. Hammond and Thos. Worthington. On 4 Apr. 1732, Samuel Cottrell, carpenter, had recorded his acceptance of administration of the estate and stated that Dorothy Hobbs was now the wife of Thomas Higgins. By 14 Oct. 1736, Cottrell had died and Thomas and Dorothy Higgins were administering the John Hobbs estate (Testamentary Proceedings, Liber 30, folio 211, and Administration Accounts, Liber 15, folio 190). Payments were made to "William Phillips who married Margaret Hobbs, daughter to the deceased, and to Samuel Hobbs, a son of the deceased," as well as to a son Joseph Hobbs. On 10 Aug. 1737 another account was rendered in which the one-shilling payments were made to the four children Susannah had by William Powell (Administration Accounts, Liber 14, folio 322). It may be assumed that John Hobbs, the son of the above John, was married by 1733, since the supposed family Bible (location not known) says that his son, a third John Hobbs, was born in Sept. 1734. The second John Hobbs had a wife Elizabeth when, on 4 Oct. 1736, he and brothers Samuel and Joseph, all planters of Anne Arundel Co., conveyed to the physician Samuel Stringer ("Practitioner of Physick") all their rights and interests in the tract known as "Hobbs Park," lying at Elk Ridge (Anne Arundel Deeds, Liber RD#2, folio 442). The sale was witnessed by Henry Ridgely and Joshua Dorsey. On 14 Aug. 1741, he bought 200 acres of "Martin's Luck" from Thomas Worthington, merchant, the deed being witnessed by Henry Ridgely and Charles Griffith (Anne Arundel Deeds, Liber RB#1, folio 88). He sold this tract on 4 Nov. 1742 to Dr. Joshua Warfield, as witnessed by John Howard and Caleb Dorsey (Anne Arundel Deeds, Liber RB#3, folio 196). In 1745 he patented "Hobbs' Support" in that part of Anne Arundel Co. that later became Howard Co. (Land Office, Liber LG#E, folio 732). John Hobbs was in Anne Arundel Co. as late as 5 March 1746, when he was called as a witness to the will of John Parr of Prince George's Co. (Testamentary Proceedings, Liber 32, folio 52). In late 1753 he patented "Hobbs Purchase" of 1927 acres, then lying in Anne Arundel, Frederick, and Baltimore Counties, but today in Howard, Frederick, and Carroll, according to Maryland records (Liber BC&GS#1, folio 193, and Liber BY&GS#1, folio 571). This land adjoined "Long Bottom" and "Bush Creek Hill." It should also be noted that in 1750 John Hobbs patented 319 acres of "Hobbs Purchase" in what is now Montgomery Co. This would indicate that at one time John owned land in four counties: Howard, Carroll, Frederick, and Montgomery. He ("John Hobbs, Planter, of Frederick Co.") sold a portion of this tract in Frederick Co. on 17 June 1756 for œ7 to Ann Hammond and Henry Griffith (Frederick Co. Deeds, Liber F, folio 139). John Hobbs patented a 50-acre tract called "Here I Begin" in Frederick Co. in 1760 (Liber BC&GS#2, folio 528). The deeds that John and Elizabeth made in 1765 could possibly indicate that he is providing for his children by his first wife and that this Elizabeth is his second wife. On 19 June 1765 for œ5 (obviously not a real sale) he conveyed a 155-acre portion of "Hobbs' Purchase" to John Hobbs Jr. of Frederick, and on the same date for œ5 he deeded 184 acres of "Hobbs' Purchase" to "Joshua Hobbs, son of John" (Frederick Co. Deeds, Liber J, pp. 1207 and 1208).

The first couple of pages explain why it was a mistake that John Hobbs Jr.'s second wife was Elizabeth Hammond. She wasn't. Just to simplify it, he had two wives named Elizabeth, but the surname of neither is known. The reasoning behind one being Elizabeth Hammond is flawed, especially in terms of dates. For more information and more on credits contact Jess Scott, jscott@stithvalley.com.

Robert Moore now has some information that John Hobbs back in Md DID have children by his second wife Dorothy (Clary).

JOSHUA AND JOSEPH HOBBS,
SONS OF JOHN HOBBS AND ELIZABETH
compiled by Robert P. Moore

Joshua and Joseph Hobbs were the sons of John Hobbs, d. ca. 1768, Frederick Co. Md. (Will Book 36, p. 616). They were
almost certainly by his first and, possibly, only wife Elizabeth. (In his correspondence with Mrs. Benjamin Buckley, George N.
Hobbs of Covington, Ky., suggested that the "first" Elizabeth was either a Dorsey or the daughter of John Brice and Sarah Howard,
widow of John Worthington and that this Sarah Howard was the daughter of Matthew Howard and Sarah Dorsey, dau. of the
immigrant Edward Dorsey. There seems to have been an Elizabeth Brice with this ancestry, but neither she nor any other Elizabeth
is recorded in Dorsey family history as marrying a John Hobbs.) John Hobbs is thought by some to have m. secondly Elizabeth
Hammond, b. 17 August 1725, St. Margaret's Westminster Parish, and thus too young to be the one on a deed with him in 1736 (Anne
Arundel Co. Deeds, Liber RD#2, folio 442), dau. of Thomas John Hammond. The basis for this theory is that a John Hobbs was listed
in 1777 as representative of Thomas John Hammond in one of the documents involving the settlement of Hammond's estate
(Administration Accounts, Anne Arundel Co., Liber ED#1, folio 18). There is no proof, however, that it was this John, or, more
likely, one of his heirs, since he had been dead since 1768. On the other hand, if one assumes that the children mentioned in his will
were by a different wife from the ones not mentioned, then those mentioned in the will, because of the names Nicholas and
Greenberry, could conceivably be by a Hammond wife, since these particular Hammonds were descendants of Col. Nicholas
Greenberry. Joseph and Joshua had full brothers William and John and , perhaps, half-brothers (those mentioned in John Hobbs's
will) Leonard, Nicholas (m. Elizabeth Cummings), Greenberry, and Charles (m. Elizabeth Ogle). Joshua and John "Jr." were deeded
land by their father John on 19 June 1765, and the deed to Joshua (184 acres of "Hobbs Purchase" for only œ5, Frederick Co. Deed
Book J, p. 1208) specifically calls him the son of John. Some research on the Hobbs family has alluded to a family Bible that says
the John Hobbs who was Joseph and Joshua's brother was born in 1734. Land records in Anne Arundel Co. and Frederick Co. would
indicate that the John Hobbs who died in 1768 moved to Frederick Co. in the 1740s or 1750s.

Joshua Hobbs's father John Hobbs's inventory was taken on 29 Nov. 1768 (Frederick Co. Inventories, Liber 100, folio 345-46,
recorded 13 Aug. 1769) by William Duvall and Joseph Beall and personal property was appraised at œ141/10/1. His nearest kin were
Joseph Hobbs and William Hobbs and the document was witnessed by John Hobbs son of John and by Leonard Hobbs. The original
paper is in Box 6, folder 46 at the Maryland Archives.

This John Hobbs, d. 1768, was the son of John Hobbs, d. 1731, Anne Arundel Co., Md. (Will Book 20, p. 279), in the part that
is now Howard Co. (The original of this will is in Box 4, Folder 7, Frederick 1768 and is also in Frederick Co. Will Book 36, p. 616.)
The senior John Hobbs's wife at his death was Dorothy, who m. then Thomas Higgins. (In July 1736, Thomas Higgins, Samuel
Hobbs, and John Hobbs occupied pew 13 in Christ [Episcopal] Church, Anne Arundel Co. John Hobbs was sexton of Christ Church
in 1728. These facts do not fit genealogist Harry Wright Newman's theory that the Hobbses were Quakers.) John Hobbs Sr. had a
previous wife Susannah, who was probably the mother of his children. He advertised on 8 March 1725 that he would not be
responsible for Susannah's debts, she having "separated herself from him four or five years past," i.e., ca. 1720-21. (This fact is stated
on p. 330 in Robert Barnes's Baltimore County Families, published by Genealogical Publishing Co., Baltimore. From Barnes's system
of references, it appears that it was in Maryland Land Records for Baltimore Co., Liber IS#H, p. 225.) Six years later in his will he
refers to Susannah's children that she had in her "inlopement by a certain William Powell." The following children are named in the
will of John Sr.: [1] Margaret (m. William Phillips); [2] Samuel (m. Sarah); [3] John; [4] Joseph (m. first, Elizabeth Higgins, dau.
of Thomas Higgins and Elizabeth Howard, and second widow Jemima Dorsey Elder); and [5] William (m. first Mary Ridgely and
second ______ Dorsey). He also mentions the children Susannah had by William Powell. Records of the Maryland Land Office
show that John Hobbs Sr.'s first recorded acquisition of land was in 1722 in (then) Baltimore Co. from Caleb Dorsey. It was a part
of the Dorsey tract called "New Year's Gift" (Maryland Land Office, Liber IL#A, folio 552). The records of St. John's and St.
George's Parish, Md., give the birth in Dec. 1724 of a son Josias for John and Susannah Hobbs. According to John's will, this Josias
was actually one of the four children that Susannah had by William Powell. Since these four were legally his heirs, he left each of
them a shilling in his will. The other three by Powell were Henry, James, and Elizabeth.

There was a large Hobbs family quite early in Somerset Co., Md., but there has not yet been found anything to connect them
with the Hobbses of Anne Arundel and Frederick Cos. Interestingly, though, there was also a large Powell family in early Somerset
Co. Robert Barnes of Md. reports that at Christ Church, Calvert Co., Md., on 20 Aug. 1704 a John Hobbs m. Mary Wilde. No
connection has been found between this John Hobbs and the one in question.

Most of the information to follow is based on the research of the late Harry Wright Newman in a study he did for Mrs. Benjamin
Buckley of Lexington, Ky., a descendant of Joseph Hobbs. While it is a thorough and well-documented study, Newman made several
crucial mistaken judgments, partly because he did not have access to certain facts since discovered. John Hobbs was, indeed, a
member of the Church of England and thus not a Quaker. His wife Susannah was not a widow of William Powell. Rather she ran
away with Powell while she was John Hobbs's wife. This latter fact is revealed in the March 1725 Baltimore Co. notice in which
Hobbs explains why he will not be responsible for her debts. This date is important in revealing how many children Susannah had
borne by John Hobbs and by what date and whether she was likely to have been the mother of the Hobbs children. In assuming that
she married John Hobbs as Powell's widow and would have had to have given birth to the Powell children no earlier than 1720 (still
minors when John Hobbs died), Newman thus judged that it was very unlikely that she could also be the mother of the Hobbs
children, who were also minors when John Hobbs died in 1731. She would have had to have borne four Powell children and then
five Hobbs children between 1720 and 1731. This, coupled with the fact that John Hobbs's son John was already married and selling
land in 1736 (Anne Arundel Co. Deeds, Liber RD#2, folio 442) means that the Hobbs children had to have been born before those
by Powell. It is clear that Newman had the order of Susannah's marriages reversed. We know from John Hobbs's will that Josias
"Hobbs," whose Dec. 1724 birth record calls him the son of John and Susannah, was actually her child by Powell and that thus the
five Hobbs children were born first and before 1724. This means that, whether she was or not, Susannah could have been their
mother. Finally, there is one more point of judgment where one may disagree with a Newman conclusion. He says that Joseph
Hobbs, the son of the John Hobbs who died in 1768 in Frederick Co. was John's son by Elizabeth Hammond, b. 1725, his supposed
second wife. There is no actual proof of this, and it is just as reasonable to conclude that Joseph was not by Elizabeth Hammond,
if indeed John was married to this daughter of Thomas John Hammond. Joseph is one of several sons of this John Hobbs who are
not mentioned in John's will. It seems just as likely that the children not mentioned in the will are by a first wife and the ones in the
will are by a second wife, who may have been, but probably was not Elizabeth Hammond, dau. of Thomas John Hammond. This
matter will be discussed more fully below.

As was said above, the first John Hobbs in this line appeared first in Maryland records when the area in Elk Ridge Hundred
where he lived south of the Patapsco River was a part of Baltimore Co. (It later was placed under the jurisdiction of Anne Arundel
Co.) On 8 Dec. 1722 it was recorded in the Maryland Land Office records (Liber IL#A, folio 552) that Caleb Dorsey had assigned
90 acres of his tract "New Years Gift" to John Hobbs, also of Baltimore Co. On 24 Dec. 1722 (same Land Office document as above)
John Hobbs received a grant that combined this 90 acres with other land into a 200-acre tract called "Hobbs Park." On 13 Feb. 1723
he received a 100-acre patent for "Addition to Hobbs Park," which, by the way, adjoined "Cross' Forrest" of the Sellman family. Soon
after John Hobbs's death, his widow appeared on 28 Aug. 1731 and renounced administration of his estate and requested that Samuel
Cottrell replace her (Maryland Testamentary Proceedings, Liber 29, folios 150, 151). The total value of his personal estate was
œ141/3/6 (Inventories, Liber 16, folio 651, filed 20 May 1732). The greatest creditors were Phil. Hammond and Thos. Worthington.
On 4 Apr. 1732, Samuel Cottrell, carpenter, had recorded his acceptance of administration of the estate and stated that Dorothy Hobbs
was now the wife of Thomas Higgins. By 14 Oct. 1736, Cottrell had died and Thomas and Dorothy Higgins were administering the
John Hobbs estate (Testamentary Proceedings, Liber 30, folio 211, and Administration Accounts, Liber 15, folio 190). Payments
were made to "William Phillips who married Margaret Hobbs, daughter to the deceased, and to Samuel Hobbs, a son of the deceased,"
as well as to a son Joseph Hobbs. On 10 Aug. 1737 another account was rendered in which the one-shilling payments were made
to the four children Susannah had by William Powell (Administration Accounts, Liber 14, folio 322).

It may be assumed that John Hobbs, the son of the above John, was married by 1733, since the supposed family Bible (location
not known) says that his son, a third John Hobbs, was born in Sept. 1734. The second John Hobbs had a wife Elizabeth when, on
4 Oct. 1736, he and brothers Samuel and Joseph, all planters of Anne Arundel Co., conveyed to the physician Samuel Stringer
("Practitioner of Physick") all their rights and interests in the tract known as "Hobbs Park," lying at Elk Ridge (Anne Arundel Deeds,
Liber RD#2, folio 442). The sale was witnessed by Henry Ridgely and Joshua Dorsey. On 14 Aug. 1741, he bought 200 acres of
"Martin's Luck" from Thomas Worthington, merchant, the deed being witnessed by Henry Ridgely and Charles Griffith (Anne
Arundel Deeds, Liber RB#1, folio 88). He sold this tract on 4 Nov. 1742 to Dr. Joshua Warfield, as witnessed by John Howard and
Caleb Dorsey (Anne Arundel Deeds, Liber RB#3, folio 196). In 1745 he patented "Hobbs' Support" in that part of Anne Arundel
Co. that later became Howard Co. (Land Office, Liber LG#E, folio 732). John Hobbs was in Anne Arundel Co. as late as 5 March
1746, when he was called as a witness to the will of John Parr of Prince George's Co. (Testamentary Proceedings, Liber 32, folio 52).
In late 1753 he patented "Hobbs Purchase" of 1927 acres, then lying in Anne Arundel, Frederick, and Baltimore Counties, but today
in Howard, Frederick, and Carroll, according to Maryland records (Liber BC&GS#1, folio 193, and Liber BY&GS#1, folio 571).
This land adjoined "Long Bottom" and "Bush Creek Hill." It should also be noted that in 1750 John Hobbs patented 319 acres of
"Hobbs Purchase" in what is now Montgomery Co. This would indicate that at one time John owned land in four counties: Howard,
Carroll, Frederick, and Montgomery. He ("John Hobbs, Planter, of Frederick Co.") sold a portion of this tract in Frederick Co. on
17 June 1756 for œ7 to Ann Hammond and Henry Griffith (Frederick Co. Deeds, Liber F, folio 139). John Hobbs patented a 50-acre
tract called "Here I Begin" in Frederick Co. in 1760 (Liber BC&GS#2, folio 528). The deeds that John and Elizabeth made in 1765
could possibly indicate that he is providing for his children by his first wife and that this Elizabeth is his second wife. On 19 June
1765 for œ5 (obviously not a real sale) he conveyed a 155-acre portion of "Hobbs' Purchase" to John Hobbs Jr. of Frederick, and on
the same date for œ5 he deeded 184 acres of "Hobbs' Purchase" to "Joshua Hobbs, son of John" (Frederick Co. Deeds, Liber J, pp.
1207 and 1208).

Although it is very questionable whether Elizabeth Hammond, b. 17 Aug. 1725 (parish register of St. Margaret's Westminster,
Anne Arundel Co.), daughter of Thomas John Hammond (and Ann Cockey, whom he m. 28 June 1721), was a wife of the John Hobbs
who died in 1768, we do know that John's wife was named Elizabeth and that a John Hobbs was a representative of Thomas John
Hammond when his estate was being administered, so it would be interesting to investigate this family at least from the point of view
of observing associates of the Hobbs family. Thomas John Hammond was the son of John Hammond and Anne Greenberry, dau.
of Col. Nicholas Greenberry. He died intestate sometime in early 1767. His inventory was filed by John Davidge and Nicholas
Worthington on 3 Apr. 1767, with an appraisal of over œ663 (Inventory, Liber 103, folio 81). No next of kin signed the inventory.
For some reason, there are no periodic accounts of the administration of this estate. Finally, on 13 Oct. 1777, the administrator John
Hammond filed a final account, in which the balance of the estate was divided equally among the representatives of Thomas John
Hammond: John Hammond, James Nichols, John Hobbs, Caleb Floyd, Rebecca Maynard, Ann Rodwell, Thomas Worthington
(Administration Accounts, Anne Arundel Co., Liber ED#1, folio 18). Either "John Hobbs" should have read "heirs of John Hobbs"
or this was some other John Hobbs. There is another study of this family by Harry Wright Newman, a copy of which is in the library
of the Daughters of the American Revolution. This study is almost verbatim identical to that done for Mrs. Benjamin Buckley, except
that the final section concerns the John Hobbs who was the son of the John who died in 1768. Newman this time does not specifically
claim that Joseph Hobbs was a son of Elizabeth Hammond as he had done in the study for Mrs. Buckley, a descendant of Joseph.
Here he suggests that only those named in the 1766 will are children by a second wife. His conclusion here is that this third John
Hobbs was married second to Rachel Maynard. She may have been the sister of Rebecca Maynard above and thus the daughter of
Henry Maynard who married 7 May 1741, Laraday Hammond, dau. of Thomas John Hammond. If this be the case, the third John
Hobbs, not the one who had been dead 11 years, was the one who was the representative (as husband of a granddaughter of Thomas
John Hammond) and there is no reason for descendants of Joseph and Joshua Hobbs to look for their ancestors among those of
Thomas John Hammond. It thus also brings into doubt the question of whether John Hobbs had more than one wife named Elizabeth.
It would appear that in the 1940s Mrs. Benjamin Buckley was attempting to obtain membership in some society that required
medieval ancestry and that Harry Wright Newman was doing the research for her and looking for ancestry in Maryland that would
fulfill that requirement. It was thought by some at that time (and since disproved) that one of the Howard ancestors of the Hammonds
was of the Howard family of the Earls of Arundel and Dukes of Norfolk. Thus Hammond ancestry was the route to this membership.
This would appear to be one of those examples of a risky approach in research, when the seeker is prejudiced by the result he desires.
The conclusion, then, is that John Hobbs Sr. m. (1) Susannah _____ and (2) Dorothy _____ and that John Jr.(father of Joseph and
Joshua) had either one or two wives, both named Elizabeth, and that neither of them is Elizabeth Hammond.

It may be interesting to students of some of the families with whom the Hobbses were associated that the tombstones of Col.
Nicholas Greenberry, Col. Nicholas Gassaway, and some of the Hammonds and Worthingtons are in the churchyard of St. Anne's
Episcopal Church. This church is in a circle in the old part of Annapolis.

Joshua Hobbs, b. 22 July 1742 or 23 July 1741, probably Anne Arundel Co., Md., may have d. in Henderson Co., Ky., where his
last wife is said to have died in 1818. He first appears on the tax lists of Nelson Co., Ky., in 1786, a year after his son Eli. In
November of that same year, one finds him, with his wife Elizabeth, selling large tracts of land in Frederick Co., Md., as recorded
in Deed Book 7. Family tradition has it that the mother of his children was Margaret Sellman, dau. of Charles Sellman and
Elizabeth Gassaway, and, indeed, in 1784 he and a wife Margaret sold land in Frederick Co. Deeds prove that the Sellmans lived
near the Hobbses in both Anne Arundel Co. and Frederick Co., Md., and one finds Sel(l)man as a first name among his descendants.
Some of the tracts that Joshua sold in 1785 and 1786 (totaling over 1000 acres) adjoined a John Sellman. (Joshua's son Eli named
his first two children Joshua and Margaret.) The tracts that Joshua sold in Frederick Co. from 1784 to 1786 were named "Hobbs
Purchase," "Resurvey on Hobbs Purchase," Hazard and Never Fear," "I Have Got It All," "Here I Begin," "Bush Creek Hills," and
"Red Oak Ridge." "Hobbs Purchase" and "Here I Begin" had been patented by John Hobbs, while "Red Oak Ridge," and "Hazard
and Never Fear" were patented by Joshua. The patent for "I Have Got It All" has not been located, but Joseph Hobbs had 196 acres
of it in 1766, and the Maryland Debt Books show that he paid "rent" on it to Lord Baltimore's proprietary sometime from 1763 to
1772. The patent for "Bush Creek Hills" also has not been located. It seems, however, to have been the previous name for the land
called "Hobbs Purchase."

Joshua's wife Elizabeth was Elizabeth (Compton?) Briscoe, to whose children some of his were married. Elizabeth died in
about 1797 and on 23 Dec. 1803, in Nelson Co., Ky., Joshua married Christian Brittingham (Hill) Aydelott, b. 22 Dec. 1752 (dau.
of Joshua Hill by a dau. of John Brittingham of Worcester Co., Md.) after Elizabeth's death (in about 1797). The will of her first
husband (George Howard Aydelott, prob. 9 Apr. 1804) had not been probated when she married Joshua Hobbs. In 1813 in Nelson
Co., Joshua and Christian were sued (John Aydelott vs. Hobbs and wife) by her son John Aydelott (she also had a younger son
Benjamin), who asserted that he had been denied a part of his inheritance from his father George, a claim which they denied. It was
in that same year that they moved to Henderson Co., Ky.

In a letter written on 25 June 1940 by George N. Hobbs, great grandson of Vachel, to Anna M. Grisez, he says that his
grandfather George W. Hobbs said that Vachel's mother was Ann Sellman and that she died at his birth in 1775 and that he then
married Margaret Sellman. (He also said that Joshua was 95 when he died and that Joseph was older than Joshua. The reliability
of George W. Hobbs's memory is put into question by the fact that he said the Hobbses came to Ky. in 1778, while tax records show
Eli to have been the first arrival in 1785.) If this were true, then one would expect that Eli, evidently the eldest son, would have
named his first daughter Ann instead of Margaret. There is no evidence that Joshua had children either by Mrs. Elizabeth Briscoe
or by Mrs. Christian Brittingham Hill Aydelott. (Since Joshua and wife Elizabeth sold land in Frederick Co., Md., in November 1786,
it is interesting to note that their marriage bond is recorded in Nelson Co., Ky., on 4 Apr. 1786. They must have journeyed back to
Maryland in that same year to dispose of their lands.) Other than the cases of daughters for whom consent appears in marriage bonds,
family tradition is the only basis for most of the following children being assigned to Joshua Hobbs, although in the case of Eli's
family there is the fact that the name Joshua occurred quite frequently among Eli's descendants, and six others of the following
children attributed to him also had children named Joshua.

Quote from the Burckhardt Bible: "Joshua Hobbs, Senior, was born July 22, 1742 and in April 1824 a minute estimation was
made of his descendants amounting in all to 232 souls living. Remarks: This estimation was made in Mo. Joshua Hobbs was born
& married in Maryland. His daughter Elizabeth married Chris B. in Md. and moved to Kentucky in 1795 and to Mo. in 1808."

Both Joshua and his brother Joseph were Nelson Co., Ky., representatives and electors for the Senate for 1792 under the first
constitution of Kentucky. This fact may be found in the Kentucky Historical Society Publication Kentucky in Retrospect: Noteworthy
Personages and Events in Kentucky History, 1792-1967. Joshua Hobbs was recommended to the governor of Virginia as a magistrate
in Nelson Co. (then Virginia) on 27 Apr. 1786. On 11 Sept. 1792 he was appointed a justice of the peace of Nelson Co., Ky., by Gov.
Isaac Shelby.

Joshua Hobbs's first acquisition of land in Nelson Co. is recorded on 24 May 1788 in Deed Book 2, p. 2. He purchased 422
acres "on the hedd waters of Wilsons Creek" from Samuel Pearman for œ184.

existence, 1785, and was the first of the Hobbs family to arrive in Nelson Co. He acquired his first land (101 acres "on the
Waters of Chaplins fork, adjoining David Smith and Thomas Bean [Bayne?]" in 1789 by a deed from Cuthbert Harrison, which
was recorded in Nelson Co. Deed Book 4, p. 247, on 12 Oct. 1790. There has been no success in a search for references to Eli
Hobbs in Maryland court records. However, in Records of Marriages and Burials in the Monocacy Church in Frederick Co.,
Md., by Frederick Sheely Weiser, published by the National Genealogical Society in 1972, one finds on p. 24 that Ely Hops
was a wit-ness on 21 Sept. 1779 with Ely Reazin Davis, Peter Dulaney, Laraugh Grimes, Margan Davis, and Elizabeth Hobbs
to the marriage of Gassaway Sellman [brother of the Margaret who is thought to have m. Joshua Hobbs] and Catharina [Hobbs]
Davis. See Robert P. Moore's compilation of Eli Hobbs's descendants in a separate list. (On p. 47 of the same publication,
one finds that Gassaway 'Salmon,' Louisa Davis and John 'Macalfresh' were witnesses to the marriage on 24 June 1787 of
Barnaba Davis and Elizabeth Hobbs. Frederick Co., Md., Deed Book 7, p. 52, shows John McElfresh to be one of those to
whom Joshua Hobbs sold land in 1786.) Eli Hobbs was one of the first ministers of the Methodist Church in Chaplin, Nelson
Co., Ky. Some of his land there is still owned by members of the Blanton family, descendants through Eli's daughter Susan,

k. Mary Ann Matilda Burkhart, b. 19 Dec. 1809, d. 17 Jan. 1846, m. 9 Oct. 1823, Rev. William Winn Redman.

3. Nancy Hobbs, m. (1) General Walker, (2) 16 June 1785, Frederick Co., Md., George Burckhardt, whose will was written
15 Aug. 1831, Nelson Co., Ky., and prob. 8 Dec. 1834, Nelson Co., Ky., naming wife Nancy and 10 children. (Margaret
Burkhart was not in her father's will.) He was perhaps the George b. 3 June 1754 who was the brother of Christopher above.
In some records he appears as Burkitt. Who is the Sarah Hobbs who m. George Burkitt on 9 June 1785? Is this a mistake?
[No documentation known of Nancy Hobbs's marriage to a General Walker. This comes from family tradition.]
a. Polly Burkhart, m. 21 July 1808, Nelson Co., Ky., William Hopkins, son of Cynthia Hopkins. The 1850 census of Nelson
Co., Ky., shows a Mary Hopkins, 63, b. Md. (ca. 1787) with a son William, 23 (b. ca. 1827). In the 1810 census they
have one son under 10; in 1820, two sons under 10, one son 10-16, and three daughters under 10; in 1830 three sons and
three daughters. The oldest son William is married with one child.

b. George Burkhart, m. 6 Oct. 1815, Nelson Co., Ky., Hannah Crawford, dau. of Hugh Crawford.

c. William Burkhart, m. 18 Sept. 1817, Nelson Co., Ky., Cynthia Hopkins, dau. of Cynthia Hopkins. In the 1820 census
they have one son and in 1830 one son and three daughters.

Gilbert, b. 23 May 1801, d. 16 Dec. 1870, both bur. Osborn Young place, east side of Cox's Creek, near Barney King
place, Nelson Co., Ky.
(1) John W. Gilbert, b. 3 Oct. 1826, d. 17 Dec. 1846, buried with them. He is too old to have been Ann's child.
However, the 1840 census showed them with one son under 10 years of age.

e. Elizabeth Burkhart m. 13 Sept. 1822, Nelson Co., Ky., Windle K. Miller.

marriage bond is given as 28 Feb.

h. Daniel Burkhart, b. 10 May 1804, m. Abigail ______.

i. Sally Burkhart, m. 5 Feb. 1828, Nelson Co., Ky., George Boyer. George Burkhart willed that, unless Boyer returned
("now absent") or she divorced him, her portion of the inheritance be handled by his executors for her children's benefit,
since George Boyer (called Buyer in the will) had mismanaged her affairs.
(1) Franklin Boyer (mentioned in his grandfather's will as her only child at that time).

j. Joshua Burkhart, b. 1810, d. 29 May 1870, m. 2 Sept. 1830, Nelson Co., Ky., Mary Wilkinson, d. Aug. 1876. Lived in
Clay Township, Spencer Co., Indiana.
(1) Benjamin F. Burkhart, b. 20 May 1833, Nelson Co., Ky., m. 8 Jan. 1853, Laura Powell, probably in Spencer Co.,
Ind. The information on the Joshua Burkhart family is on p. 516, History of Warrick, Spencer and Perry Counties,
Indiana, Goodspeed, Bros. & Co., Chicago, 1885, reprinted by Whipporwill Publications, Evansville, Ind., 1986.

(h) Georgie Burkhart
(i) Charles Burkhart.

k. Margaret Burkhart, m. 22 Feb. 1806, Nelson Co., Ky., Josiah Anderson. Not mentioned in her father's will. Josiah
appears with three children under 10 in the 1810 census. In Nelson Co. on 12 Mar. 1812 a Josiah Anderson married
Dorcas Grigsby, dau. of Nathaniel Grigsby Jr. and his cousin Mildred Grigsby. Dorca is bur. in Bloomfield Bapt. cem.,
Bloomfield, Ky. She was the sister of William Remey Grigsby, the ancestor of the Grigsbys of Bardstown, Ky., and of
Red-mond Butler Grigsby of Nelson Co., Ky.

There are also these unplaced Burkhart marriages in Nelson Co., Ky., records:
John Burkhart m. Mary Lynch 1 Oct. 1835.
Nancy Burkhart m. Aaron Bridges 15 March 1838. Bond signed by William A. Hobbs.
Sarah Burkhart m. Rhodes Wilson 8 Jan. 1839. Bond signed by Morris Hobbs.

4. Lydia Hobbs, b. 22 Dec. 1786, d. 19 Oct. 18__, m. 8 Jan. 1801, Nelson Co., Ky., William J. Bayne, b. 7 Sept. 1776, Md.,
d. 8 Apr. 1859, Larue Co., Ky., both bur. South Fork Bapt. cem., Larue Co., Ky. The bond was signed by Ezekiel Hobbs and
consent was given by her father Joshua. They named their first son for her father Joshua. The second son was named Thomas,
which leads one to speculate that William was the son of Thomas Bayne, brother of the Walter who settled in Nelson Co. This
or some Thomas appears in records in both Nelson and Hardin counties. On 7 Dec. 1805 in Hardin Co. a Thomas Bean was
surety for the marriage of Andrew Walters and Sarah Bean. On 6 Oct. 1818, also in Hardin Co. William J. Bayne was a witness
with Andrew Walters to the marriage bond of Jediah Walters and Sarah Middleton, dau. of Hendley Middleton, who gave
consent. Surety was Andrew Walters. In Hardin Co. on 24 Sept. 1816, Jesse Bayne m. Alice Hittson, dau. of Alexander.
Witnesses were Charles Middleton and Andy Walters. In addition, Nancy Bayne dau. of Thomas Sr., m. William Walters in
1820 and Elizabeth Bayne, dau. of Thomas, m. Quillan Walters in 1821. Some of these show ties of these Baynes with the
Middleton family, and Susannah Middleton, dau. of Thomas Middleton, was the mother of Walter and Thomas Bayne, as will
be seen in Bayne family records. Note also that in Nelson Co. Hen(d)ley Middleton m. Mary Bayne, dau. of Thomas, on 21
Dec. 1797, and Charles Middleton m. Susannah Bayne, dau. of Thomas, on 17 Aug. 1797. Walter and Thomas Bayne and some
of the Middletons, from Prince George's Co. and Charles Co., Md., were together in the records of Loudoun Co., Va. They
had a brother John, who may be the one who m. Ann Middleton on 24 Dec. 1791 in Lincoln Co., Ky., where some of their
Owsley associates and relatives also lived. Kentucky Genealogy and Biography, Vol. I, p. 36, ed. Thomas W. Westerfield,
published 1970, Owensboro, Ky., says that an Andrew Walters, d. 1855, of Pennsylvania came to Kentucky and m. (1) ______
Ashcraft and (2) Sallie Bayne. William Walters, b. 1806, son of Andrew m. Catharine Redman, dau. of Richard Redman of
Nelson Co., Ky., and they had Andrew Walters, b. 22 Sept. 1839, Hardin Co., Ky., who m. 31 Aug. 1872 Grace M. La Rue
of Larue Co., Ky.
There is a problem with the age of Lydia in that a transcription of her tombstone and the 1850 census indicate that she was born in 1786, which would make her the daughter of Joshua Hobbs's marriage to Elizabeth Briscoe and she would have been only 14 when she married. This is not impossible, but the 1860 census indicates that she was born in 1784, and she did not name any daughter Elizabeth (unless the one who m. Joseph Hargan in Hardin Co. in 1830 is theirs), while the first one was named Margaret. Until some more facts are discovered, the identity of Lydia's mother is open to question.
Some descendants say that Lydia and William Bayne had 12 children, but only nine have been proven. There are
marriages of three other women listed as daughters of a William Bayne, but they are not listed in the deed by which the nine sold the family farm. The early marriages (before the formation of Larue Co. out of Hardin) are in Hardin Co. They are Margaret Bayne m. 25 Aug. 1830, Archibald Reid; Elizabeth Bayne m. 20 Mar. 1826, Joseph Hargan; Sarah Bayne m. 7 Feb. 1825, James Lamkins. Kentucky Genealogy and Biography, Vol. I, p. 23, gives the biography of Benjamin J. Hargan, b. 1832, Hardin Co., Ky., son of Daniel Hargan, b. 1804, and Susan Middleton (dau. of Henry Middleton, b. 1772, and Elizabeth Bayne,
so it seems quite likely that the Joseph Hargan who m. Elizabeth Bayne is at least of an associated family. The Benjamin Hargan family lived in Larue Co., Ky.)

Consent for her first marriage was given by her father Joshua. Administrator's bond for Stephen Briscoe's estate filed on 10
Dec. 1804. No guardians appointed for any children. A letter filed in the library of the Kentucky Historical Society, Frankfort,
Ky., says that there was a dau. by Stephen Briscoe. There is a John Rogers in the 1810 census of Nelson Co. with one son and
three daughters all under 10. Some of these were surely by the Briscoe marriage unless Rogers had been married before.

8. John Hobbs, b. 1770, d. 1840, Nelson Co., Ky., (Will Book 3, p. 573), m. (1) 29 Feb. 1787 (bond), his stepsister Cassandra
Briscoe, (2) 26 Dec. 1797, Nelson Co., Ky., Eleanor Abell, b. ca. 1775, d. ca. 1850 (Will Book 6, p. 386, written 14 Oct. 1846,
prob. 14 Oct. 1850), stepdaughter of Thomas Polke. Joshua Hobbs was security for the bond on the first marriage. The first
three children are by Cassandra, and the remainder by Eleanor. At the time of the 1850 census, Eleanor was living with the
Robert Wortham family below. John Hobbs first appears on the tax lists of Nelson Co. in 1787.

of Smith May and Polly Young. She lived with Smith May Hobbs for a time after his death and then with her dau. Celia
Hamilton. Smith May, Burr, John Sellman, Celia Ann, and Joshua were all living in Bullitt Co., Ky., in 1852 when land
was sold. Mary Ellen and William G. were living in Shelby Co., and James Harvey was in Arkansas. Much of the
information on this family came from Hobbs and Related Families, vol. 2, by Ralph L. Hobbs, published Jan. 1985 by
A. Press, Greenville, South Carolina. That book should be used carefully in studying Kentucky Hobbses, since some of
the contributors submit-ted incorrect information.

11. Ezekiel Hobbs, b. by 1770. Perhaps, although this is very late, he is the Ezekiel who m. 4 Aug. 1830, Nelson Co., Ky., Nancy
Read. Some of his children may have lived in Bullitt Co., Ky. He first appears on Nelson Co., Ky., tax lists in 1787 and may
thus belong at a somewhat earlier point in the order of birth of Joshua's children. The 1810 census of Bullitt Co., Ky., shows
him with one child in his household, indicating that he was probably married before his marriage to Nancy Read. In 1820 there
is a mature woman in his household but no children. It is quite possible that any children by a first marriage would have been
adults living somewhere in their own households by this time. His brother Vachel was also living in Bullitt Co. in 1820, but
was back in Nelson Co. in 1830. In 1830 there was in Bullitt Co. a Joshua Hobbs (son of Vachel?), age 20-30, with a woman
in his household age 15-20 and another man 20-30.

12. Vachel Hobbs, b. 1 or 31 Oct. 1775, d. 26 Apr. 1847, Mt. Pleasant, Howard Co., Mo., m. (1) 17 Apr. 1799 [Bible says 19
May], Nelson Co., Ky., Celia Helm, b. 23 May 1784, d. 25 Aug. 1816, dau. of Lt. Thomas Helm (son of Thomas Helm and

19 Sept., and see birth of Vachel Jr. below in same year] 1822, widow of Thomas Ricks; (3) 3 March 1823, Nelson Co., Ky.,
and div. 24 Jan. 1827, by act of Ky legislature, Mrs. Amelia Foster, widow of John Foster; (4) 15 Nov. 1829, Nelson Co., Ky.,
Mrs. Mary (______) Scott, may have d. 30 Oct. 1830, widow of James Scott, (5) Sallie ______, who is said to have m. (2)
_____ Burkhart. There is no mention of the last two wives in the Vachel Hobbs Bible. Ralph L. Hobbs published in January
1985, through A Press, Greenville, South Carolina, volume 2 of Hobbs and Related Families. There is in this book on pages
182 and 183 and article entitled "From Vachel and Celia Helm Hobbs' Bible." The Bible was published, however, in 1827,
some years after the death of Celia Helm. The dates here, other than Nelson Co., Ky., marriage records are from that Bible,
as shown in the article in the Hobbs book. It would appear that, at least in later years, the Bible records were maintained by
the family of Dr. Joshua Hobbs. There is an entry in the Vachel Hobbs Bible that says that Vachel's father Joshua was born
23 July 1741. The Burkhart Bible says 22 July 1742. There are misreadings of this Bible, which are corrected here after
personal reading of the Bible at the Kentucky Historical Society.

Joseph Hobbs, b. Maryland, d. 1810, Nelson Co., Ky. (Will Book B, p. 201), m. in Md., Ann Maynard, d. after 1793 and before
25 Oct. 1809, dau. of Thomas Maynard (son of Henry Maynard and Sarah ______) and Ann (Wright?). He was the brother of Joshua
Hobbs and son of John Hobbs, d. 1768, Frederick Co., Md., and Elizabeth ______. Joseph Hobbs first appears on the tax lists of
Nelson Co., Ky., in 1790, a year after his son Zachariah. He should, by the way, be distinguished from the Joseph Hobbs who held
the Anne Arundel Co. tract "Poverty Discovered." That Joseph was also a descendant of the John Hobbs who d. in 1731, but not
through the line of John Hobbs who d. in 1768. While there is no existing deed by John Hobbs of land to his son Joseph, one finds
that Joseph held part of "Hobbs's Purchase" in 1766 (Land Office Debt Book, Frederick Co., 1766, folio 213). In 1762 Joseph had
patented "I Have Got It All" (150 acres) in Frederick Co., which adjoined "Charles Lott" and was on Bush Creek (Land Office, Liber
BC&GS#17, folio 290). It will be noticed that "Charles Lott" and Bush Creek are mentioned in the land records of other members
of the John Hobbs family. In 1763 Joseph held 196 acres of "I Have Got It at Last" (Debt Book, Frederick Co., 1763, folio 94).
Joseph bought 100 acres of "Anything" in 1783 and in 1785 he was deeded "Fifth Dividend" by Henry Griffith of Montgomery Co.
(Frederick Co. Deeds, Liber WR#4, folios 290 and 149). On 6 Oct. 1788, Joseph Hobbs must have already been contemplating his
move to Kentucky. On that date he and wife Ann sold to Henry Crise of Frederick Co. parts of several tracts in Frederick Co.
"Nothing Venture, Nothing Get," on the east side of Monocacy Creek near "Joseph's Friendship"; "Fifth Dividend"; "Anything,"
adjacent to "Fifth Dividend" (Frederick Co. Deeds, Liber WR#8, folio 248). It is not known what his activities were between this
sale and the time (1790) that he first appears on tax lists in Nelson Co., Ky.

Henry Maynard married on 17 Nov. 1704, St. Margaret's Parish, Anne Arundel Co., Sarah, widow of Dr. Robert Hopkins, who
had d. in 1703. On 10 March 1701/2 Henry Maynard had purchased 518 acres of "Proctor's Park" from Thomas and Sarah Reynolds
(Anne Arundel Co. Deeds, Book WT#1, p. 241). The deed describes him and a merchant of the Kingdom of England. Henry and
Sarah were the parents of Thomas (father of Ann Hobbs); Henry, b. 7 Oct. 1708, d. 1790, m. (1) 7 May 1741, Laraday Hammond,
(2) by 1764, Zipporah ______; Mary, b. 11 March 1713, m. 13 Apr. 1732, John Rockhold, as stated in "The Maynard Family of
Frederick County" by John F. Dorman, National Genealogical Society Quarterly, Vol. 48 (Dec. 1960), pp. 187-95. (This article
mistakenly says that Joseph Hobbs lived in Madison Co., Ky.) Thomas Maynard was born 15 March 1705/6 and died in Frederick
Co., Md., before 15 Oct. 1794 (date of probate of will). In Frederick Co. (in the part that became Montgomery Co.) he patented
"Maynard's Chance" in 1748 and "Land of Valleys" in 1758. He had children Nathan, Benjamin, Ann, and Thomas.

Concerning service in the Revolution, there is the following interesting passage in Maryland Archives, Vol. 16, p. 36, from
a letter of 10 Jan. 1777 to the Council of Safety of Maryland. "In my last I mentioned to you my intention of meeting the Linganore
Battalion, and endeavouring to get them to accommodate their differences about officers. I went to the place on Wednesday, but few
of the men and not quite half the officers attended my journey was fruitless, though most of those who attended declare their
willingness to march, yet none of them will give up their pretensions. I inclose you Mr. Sheredine's and Mr. Howard's resignations,
Joseph Hobbs, Nicholas Hobbs and Nathan Maynard have returned their commissions. The Hobbs's refuse to act at all. Maynard
I am told ought to be first Lieutenant. . . . Th. Johnson Junr." Later, on page 37 one finds that Joseph Hobbs, 1st Lieut., resigned.
There were many disputes similar to this one, some of them questions of class feelings or personal ego, especially in the choosing
of officers during the Revolution, and resignation at one point does not mean that this was the final outcome of the dispute. Joseph
Hobbs served with the "Flying Camp," according to Maryland Archives, Vol. 18, p. 40.

Joseph Hobbs was a member of the 1792 convention in Danville, Ky. that compiled the first constitution of Kentucky.

1. Thomas M. Hobbs, b. 26 Feb. 1764, d. 26 Sept. 1841, Nelson Co., Ky., m. (1) Urith ______ [from whom divorced?], (2) 13
Feb. 1798, Frederick Co., Md., Urath [spelling on tombstone] Owings, b. 24 Feb. 1762, d. 6 May 1842, both bur. in family
graveyard on the John Robert Shields farm, about four miles from Bloomfield between US 62 and Ky. 162. (Nearby, on U.S.
62 is a historical marker regarding Kincheloe's Station or the "Burnt Station" which was on Joseph Hobbs's land. The
inhabitants of that fort were massacred by Indians in 1782.) Urath Owings was probably his only wife and is probably the one
buried on the Shields farm. The question arises from the will of his father Joseph Hobbs, who refers to Thomas's "first" wife
Urith, who was living in Maryland at the time of the writing of the will. This could have been some kind of precaution against
awarding a legacy to any possible second wife of Thomas's. She is said to have been the dau. of Christopher Owings and Betsy
Lawrence, and Christopher Owings was the son of Samuel Owings (son of Capt. Richard Owings and Rachel) and Urath
Randall (dau. of Justice Thomas Randall and Hannah Bale). See p. 131, Owings and Allied Families, comp. by Addison D.
and Elizabeth S. Owings, published 1976 by Polyanthos, New Orleans.

There is also a legacy to a Mrs. Ann Terrell and her daughter Alice. She also left legacies to a Huston family, who are

[Note by Robert P. Moore: When the word "furniture" is used with reference to beds it does not have the same meaning as this word does in the
twentieth century. This meant all those things that go to make up a complete bed. What is called furniture today was then often referred to as
"movables." The original of this will has been preserved among the Frederick Co. wills in the Maryland Hall of Records in Annapolis. It is in Box 4,
Folder 7. John Hobbs's signature is a large and barely legible scrawl. Either he was quite feeble or he was not a master of penmanship. Since he was
a minor in 1731 when his father wrote his will, he could not have been more than 56 years old when he wrote his own will.]

Sellman Excursus

Although it has not been proved as of 1992 that the mother of Joshua Hobbs's children was indeed a Margaret Sellman, the following information is provided in the event such an ancestry is proved in the future. This information comes chiefly from the private printing in Cincinnati in 1975 of John Sellman of Maryland and Descendants by William Marshall Sellman, Associate Professor of History at the University of Cincinnati. The Maryland research was done by the late R. R. Goldsborough Jr. of Gaithersburg, Md.

It is thought by some that the Margaret who was Joshua Hobbs's wife at the time of a 1784 Frederick Co., Md., deed was the daughter of Charles Sellman, b. 5 Aug. 1722, Anne Arundel Co., Md., d. 1771, in the part of Ann Arundel Co. that is now Howard Co., m. ca. 1745, Anne Arundel Co., Elizabeth Gassaway, dau. of Nicholas Gassaway and Elizabeth Hawkins. By his father's will he inherited 257 acres of "Cross' Forest" near the present village of Guilford, Howard Co. This land adjoined the land of John Hobbs there. In 1793, Elizabeth Gassaway Sellman sold a slave to John Groves of near Mt. Airy in Frederick Co., which was the same neighborhood to which John Hobbs Jr. had moved in the 1740s or 1750s. Charles and Elizabeth Sellman's son Gassaway Sellman married on 16 Sept. 1779, Frederick Co., Mrs. Catherine (Hobbs) Davis, widow of Francis Davis and dau. of Samuel Hobbs of that same family. (Samuel Hobbs was a son of the John Hobbs who d. 1731, so Catherine was a cousin of Joshua Hobbs. Charles and
Elizabeth Sellman also had a son John, who is probably the same John Sellman whose land in Frederick Co. adjoined that of Joshua Hobbs. This nearness of residence of the Hobbs and Sellman families in two different places makes it rather plausible that Joshua's wife was indeed Margaret Sellman, although she was probably only about 14 years old when they married. Marriage at this age was certainly not unheard of in colonial times and even later.

Charles Sellman was the son of William Sellman, b. 22 Jan. 1689/90, Anne Arundel Co., Md., d. 7 Mar. 1742/3, m. 9 Oct. 1718, Mrs. Ann West Sparrow, b. 12 Feb. 1685/6, Accomack Co., Va., d. May 1749, Anne Arundel Co., Md., widow of Thomas Sparrow and dau. of Lt. Col. John West and Matilda Scarborough. Elizabeth Gassaway's parents were Capt. Thomas Gassaway and Elizabeth Lawrence, dau. of Benjamin Lawrence Sr. and Elizabeth Talbott, who was the daughter of Richard Talbott and Elizabeth Ewen. (The Sellman book gives Elizabeth Lawrence Gassaway an incorrect ancestry.)

William Sellman was the son of John Sellman, b. ca. 1645-50, England (perhaps in Shropshire), who came to American in about 1658 and d. ca. 18 Oct. 1707 (buried at All Hallows Church on 20 Oct. 1707). He married Elizabeth, who was almost certainly the dau. of Benoit/Benjamin Brashear (Brassieur), a French Huguenot who settled first in Nansemond Co., Va., and then came to Calvert Co., Md., in 1658. Capt. Thomas Gassaway was the son of Col. Nicholas Gassaway (possibly the corruption of some French name), b. 11 March 1634, lived in the London parish of St. Margaret, Westminster, transported to America in 1649 by Richard Owen, settled in South River, Anne Arundel Co., m. Hester Besson, dau. of Capt. Thos. Besson. Col. Nicholas Gassaway is buried in the graveyard of St. Anne's Episcopal Church in the old part of Annapolis, and his stone is preserved there. He was the son of Thomas
Gassaway and Anne Collingwood of London, England. After the rebellion of the Protestant Associators, Col. Nicholas was made one of the Committee of Twenty to govern Maryland in 1690 (Maryland Archives, Vol. 8, pp. 196-99). Quite a bit of information on him appears in Hester Dorsey Richardson's Side-Lights on Maryland History.

Ann West, the wife of Charles Sellman, was the daughter of Lt. Col. John West (probably son of Anthony West and Ann), b. 1638, d. 27 May 1703, d. 27 May 1703, m. in the fall of 1661 Matilda Scarborough, b. ca. 1645, d. 3 Jan. 1721/2, who when elderly joined the Quakers, an irony, considering the views of her father. John West sympathized with the rebellion of Nathaniel Bacon and afterwards had to take an oath of allegiance to the Virginia government.

Matilda Scarborough was the dau. of Col. Edmund Scarborough, baptized at St. Martin in the Fields, London, 2 Oct. 1617, d. intestate in mid-May, 1761, on his plantation on Occahannock Creek in Accomack Co., Va. He came to America with his parents in about 1624. He m. Mary ________, possibly the dau. of Sir Edward Littleton of Henley, Shropshire, and sister of Col. Nathaniel Littleton of Accomack Co. She was b. ca. 1619, according to a deposition given 20 July 1671. (This is the same year of birth as that of Mary Littleton, as given in the Visitation of Shropshire 1634, p. 64.) She d. at "Merry Branch," home of her grandson Anthony West in early Dec. 1691. Col. Edmund patented his first 200 acres in Accomack on 28 Nov. 1635, eventually accumulating 46,500 acres. He was a Quaker hater and an unscrupulous politician and businessman. He flouted laws and disregarded court decisions and
the man-dates of Gov. William Berkeley, perhaps because of the influence at the court in England of his brother Sir Charles Scarborough. If Col. Edmund's wife was indeed Mary Littleton (said to be improbable), then Sellman descendants have ancestry in the nobility and the royal family of England.

Col. Edmund Scarborough was the son of Capt. Edmund Scarborough, b. ca. 1584, d. ca. 1634-35, m. Hannah ______, possibly the dau. of Robert Butler. This Edmund was admitted to Caius College, Oxford University on 15 Apr. 1602. He came to America in about 1624, settling on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, near Magothy Bay. He was a member of the House of Burgesses and in 1631, Justice for Accomack Co. He was baptized in North Walsham, England on 25 Dec. 1584.

Capt. Edmund Scarborough is said to be the son of Henry Scarborough, b. ca. 1521, d. 1605, North Walsham, England, will proved 11 Jan. 1605/6, m. Elizabeth _____. This Henry was the son of John Scarburgh of North Walsham, whose will was proved on 8 Oct. 1540. His wife was Maude.

THE EAST SUSSEX FAMILY OF HOBBS
The earliest record of Hobbs in East Sussex was in 1322 when the Prior of Michelham was given license to hold 4/11d rent from John in Haylesham.The next was in 1464 when the Arlington churchwardens accounts shew them receiving 12d from John Hobbe.

The sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries saw many Hobbs in East Sussex.But no record exists of any person being both christened,married and dying apart from those which came from Pyecombe.

The 1524 Subsidy Rolls shew John assessed at £2 in Poynings Hundred,this might be John of Pyecombe whose will was proved at Lewes 19.2.1567.His brother Richard of Westmeston, husbandman, was granted Letters of Administration.John could be the father of James christened at Pyecombe 1.5.1565.

John Webb married Alce Geeringe at Patcham 18.2.1565.He made his will 13.8.1586 and was buried at Barcombe 4 days later.He devised his property to his wife and their children Mary, Jone, Margaret and William,all under age.Alce,the executor, remarried with Thomas Markwick at Barcombe 11.1.1587 and was buried there 14.6.1588.

By 18.10.1588 Johns sister Mary had married James Hobbs,place not found.She then had possession of her late brothers farm Westlands in Barcombe.This was a freehold of Rodmell manor, whose court recognised her tenancy.How this was when Johns children were still alive is unusual.Rodmell records c.1597 shew that James and Marie held the freehold of Westlands in Barcombe at a rent of 5/- p.a. he holding in iure uxor.Westlands was 46.1.24 acres (nos.26/30,67/78) in the Tithe Map,abutting Vuggles on the south, by then it had been subsumed by the latter and no building survived.

James and Mary had a daughter Alice,place of baptism, marriage,if any and burial also unknown.
Mary was buried at Barcombe 18.7.1598.Alce was still alive in 1609, James then held by Curtesy of England, that is in right of his daughter.

In Hilary term 1609 James made suit to the Lord High Treasurer, Robert Cecil, Earl of Salisbury and Barons of the Exchequer to issue a writ of Sub Poena against Thomas Woodye, constable of Barcombe and William Rootes, headborough to appear before the Court of Exchequer.There to answer James assertions regarding the distraining of his tenant William Moores sheep and the assessment of his belief that Westlands was only half a yard.

SEE APPENDICES FOR TRANSCRIPTIONS OF THE COURT CASE

James ,as a freeholder ,served on the jury at the East Grinstead Assizes in 1616 and 1617 and was alderman of Barcombe Hundred in 1619.

By 1625 Westlands had come into the possession of Stephen Pankhurst who granted a 14 year lease to Robert Jarrett.On 16.5.1627 James wife Mary,her sons Thomas and John,husbandmen and daughters Anne and Mary spinsters armed with iron bars,swords and other arms broke into Westlands and ejected the tenant.A special sitting of the Lewes Quarter Sessions on 27.7.1627 fined Mary £3/6/8d and her offspring £2 each.

Henry committed suicide and was buried 2.9.1860. The following is an extract from the Sussex Express 1.9.1860.FLETCHING.Suicide.F.H.Gell,Esq.,held an inquest on Thursday, touching the death of Henry Hobbs,who committed suicide by hanging himself in his garden on Tuesday. Elizabeth Pumphery deposed-I have been housekeeper to the deceased for the last six weeks.His brother lived in the same house.They were labourers.The deceased was 73 years of age. He was generally a reserve man and said but little.About half past seven I heard him go into the garden On that morning there appeared to be no difference in him. He ate his breakfast before he went out.I left the house for a couple of hours but did not see him him on my return. I thought he was at work in the garden.When the deceaseds brother returned he enquired if I had seen the deceased. I told him I had not.He went into the garden and in about a quarter of an hour returned,and said his brother had hung himself.Some neighbours were called in.When I first went as housekeeper he was very low spirited but I used to talk to him and make him more cheerful.I think the reason for him being so low spirited was that his wages had been cut and he was afraid of coming to want.I did not think it likely he would come to want.
Jasper Hobbs,brother to the deceased,deposed-I went on Tuesday last to Uckfield for him on business.I conversed with him before I started;there appeared to be no change in his manner.I returned at 12 o clock,and as I did not see deceased in the house I went into the garden to look for him.I found hanging by a cord fastened round his neck,to the branch of an apple tree, dead.His feet nearly or quite touched the ground.I called Mr.Trayton Weston and some other persons,and sent for Mr.Jones a surgeon at Fletching.Mr.Joness assistant came and said deceased had been dead three or four hours.My brother became low spirited in November last and continued more or less so to his death.His wages were lowered and he was afraid he should come to want.I think at times he was not in his right mind.Trayton Weston corroborated the evidence of the last witness on finding the body.The jury returned a verdict of "Suicide whilst labouring under temporary insanity"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

From Sussex Express 4.2.1871
Death from disease of the heart.An inquest was held before L.G.Fullager,Esq.at the house of the deceased on the body of Jaspar Hobbs,a labourer aged 67 years on Wednesday last.From the evidence adduced it appears the deceased complained to his brother on Monday evening of having a cold.His brother thought he looked better than when he had seen him a few days previously.He generally had good health.About nine o clock the same evening Jesse Martin,whose wife kept deceased house,went to bed, leaving deceased sitting by the kitchen fire.The following morning he called deceased about 6.30,but receiving no answer he went to his room.He found him dead.Edwin Fenn Esq;a surgeon,who had attended deceased,said the death resulted from disease of the heart,and the jury returned a verdict in accordance with the medical testimony.

Extract from Sussex Express 6 November 1942

Second Attempt

FLETCHING WOMANS SUICIDE

How a well known Fletching woman took her life after a previous unsuccessful attempt,was related to the East Sussex Coroner Dr.E.F.Hoare at an inquest at Black Ven Farm,Fletching on Friday.Deceased was Miss Eliza Hobbs,aged 79 years whose body was recovered from the river nearby during a search which followed the discovery when a cup of tea was taken to her room early on Wednesday morning.
Henry Hobbs of Black Ven Farm,identified deceased as his sister,and said he had lived next door to her for about 2 years.On being informed that she was missing at about 7.45 a.p. he made a search and found imprints of her shoes leading towards Searles lake.He followed them to Clapwater,and on looking over the bridge he saw her lying in the water.He pulled her out,but found she was dead.

PREVIOUS OCCASION

Witness told the coroner that his sister had been in th ewater on a previous occasion but had been got out.His sister was a spinster and a daughter of Mr James Hobbswho previously farmed there.
Mrs Doris Mary Partridge said she had lived with the deceased for the last two years,and last saw her alive when she went to bed on the previous Tuesday evening.She took deceased up a cup of tea the following morning and found that she was missing,although the bed had been slept in.
Witness said there was a letter on the bed which indicated that deceased intended to take her life. Deceased had got into a pond about two months previously but had been got out..
The Coroner intimated that the contents of the letter were that the deceased could not bear things any longer “ Its so awful “ she wrote.
P.C.Raymond Skinner said he was informed that deceased was missing at 8 a.m. He went to the farm and organised a search among the woods and buildings.When he arrived at Clapwater he saw deceased lying on her back on the river bank,and tried artificial respiration without avail.He searched the bank and found a walking stick pushed into a tree near the bridge.He concluded deceased had jumped over bridge , into the river ,as it was a wet morning and there was no indication on the river bank of her having slipped in.The river was fairly deep and about 30 ft.below the bridge.

MEDICAL EVIDENCE

Dr.Richard Gainsborough of Fletching ,said he had known deceased for about 12 months,and last saw her alive on the previous Monday.He had examined the body and was of the opinion that death was due to shock.He was not altogether surprised at the occurrence as deceased had always been neurasthenic and latterly had become worse..
The Coroner recorded a verdict that “ Death was due to shock from immersion due to deceased throwing herself into the river while the balance of her mind was disturbed.”
P.C.Skinner thanked Mr.Henry Hobbs for his assistance,and Mr.Hobbs expressed the thanks of his family to P.C.Skinner for all he had done.

LIVED IN LONDON

Deceased was a native of Maresfield but gad lived in London for the greater part of her live.She returned to the village about two years ago after being bombed out of her London home.Her family is well-known in the district,where her father occupied Black Ven Farm for many years before it was taken over by her brother 44 years ago.
The interment took place at Nutley Parish Chirch on Saturday,and was conducted by the Vicar,the Rev H.P.Walkden.The chief mourners includes Mr Albert Hobbs and Mr David Hobbs ( brothers),Mrs D.
Hobbs ( sister in law ),Mrs Tribe,Mrs A.Best,Mr And Mrs A.Sturgeon,Mrs Partridge,Miss L Hobbs,Mr and Mrs Mackenzie and Mr J Hobbs (nieces and nephews)

William gave evidence to Mr.W.A.Raper on the legal case regarding the attempt of the De La Warrs to deny commoners their forest rights." HOBBS,William about 58 on the forest near Browns Brook. Was born in the lodge house at Oldlands.My father was a labourer and worked on Oldlands and Puxty.When I was 10 years old I went to work and have worked immediately around the neighbourhood all my life.I believe I first went to work for Mr.Benham at Puxty for 4 or 5 years my father was working for him then.I afterwards went as a ploughboy to Ed Dadswell at Barnsgate Farm and after 2 or 3 years went to live in the house with him and lived there 4 1/2 years then worked in Mr Woods nursery and cut litter in the winter and have about ever since.I worked some 20 years ago for Sir John Shelley for about 4 1/2 years and have worked on and off for Mr.Nesbitt for the last 9 years. I remember when Benjamin Minns (dead) farmed Oldlands on his own account.I used to work for him at times and know he had litter off the forest.I remember his son John Minns (witness) succeeding him.I worked a good deal for him and I know he used to have litter from the forest and also for fuel in the old house.I know Mr Nesbitt has also had litter there.I helped cut for all three. I know Copthall Farm.I remember when I was a boy John Page (dead) owned and used it.He had a great of litter I helped cut some for him he also turned out.He used to carry a great deal of turf for various people.He was succeeded by his son Thomas Page (dead) I know he had a great deal of litter.He also turned out.Tutor hired the farm after his death till about 3 years ago.He had litter and turned out. I remember the son Ed Page (dead) at the workhouse.He had litter there. I know Claygates Farm.I remember Mr Gilbert using it. I cut one load of litter for him.His successor Clifton had litter.I have seen his team after it on the forest and have seen it in his yard. I know Perrymans Grove Farm.Henry Whitewood is now the tenant he has had litter I saw a wagon load of it in his yard the other day. When I worked for Mr Benham he used to have litter I remember on one occasion a load in coming round the corner was turned into the pond horse and all.He continued to have it after I left him and large quantities of mould. I used to see them bring bring it off the forest by the road thro Barnsgate where I was working.I am working at Puxty at the moment for the Duchess of Norfolk she has litter off the forest this year. When I went to work for for Ed Dadswell he used Barnsgate and also Stroods Farm. In a time he then had litter at both farms and turf for fuel and continued to have turf and litter at Barnsgate till he died and his sons did so after him.I used to be about with them a good deal.I cut a good deal of litter for Ed Dadswell and his sons.They all turned out a great many cattle.After Edward Dadswell gave up Strouds Farm Robert Jenner had it.After him Mr Benham used it susequently Alfred T Dadswell (dead) I do not remember what they did.Mr Robert Wilson bought the farm and afterwards Barnsgate and used them both down down to the present time and have frequently seen his teams loading litter on the farm and carrying it in. I know Barnsden Farm on the forest opposite Oldlands.When I was 17 I lived in the house 2 years and worked for Thomas Star who owned and used it.He had litter and turf for fuel and mould off the forest and he turned out. I never heard of anyone being interupted in cutting turf till the present Lord De La Warrs time. I remember Mr Smith of Uckfield kept some hounds and used to hunt on the forest and when I was a little nipper I went out many a time with them.Afterwards Mr Benham kept some some beagles and used to hunt in the forest.I used to help hunt. I heard 3 or 4 years ago of the present Lord D planting fir trees near the 500.I never heard of any of his predecessors planting any.The clumps were planted before my time.When I was a boy there no fir trees on the forest except in the clumps now there a great many seedlings springing up. The forest has been dug about a great deal more lately than it used to be for stone and for roads."
