Description
Excerpt from Genealogy of the Hobbs Family of Massachusetts
Lexington, mass., with his father, in 1690, where he resided until about 1705. Being then 21 years of age, he returned to Boston, and there remained for the next 25 years. In 1708, he married Esther Davenport, of Dorchester, and resided at the north end of Boston, where he engaged in agricultural pursuits. When far advanced in years he used to relate many interesting events of his early days.
