Additional Information

Sydney Henry HOBBS:

Notes:

Marriage: On the MC the following is given for Sydney: Age 39, labourer Newtown, Widower. Birthplace Adelaide, parents Enoch Hobbs (deceased) labourer and Sarah Barnfield.

He was probably raised by grandparents Enoch Hobbs & Jane Barnsfield, and occasionally his mother Sarah. Sydney apparently did not know or had forgotten who his parents were. By 1914 Enoch and Jane were both deceased, but Sarah Jane was still alive, probably living in Broken Hill.

His previous marriage may have been to Mary Maud Howitt in WA (1898), but any details on her, her death, or that marriage couldn't be found. (There was a Maud M Howitt born in Sydney in 1876.)
