OH YES! This is our Tyson Hobbs and the Greers, I can't remember just who they are but they are remembered in our family. The other, the Albrights -- yes, they're HUNTS. The James Hunt group from GA that is. Where there any male Dennys listed . . . my great uncle Jim Hunt married a girl who, after his death, married a Denny. Names my grandparents never forgot. Is there any mention whether they were all Methodists? Or was there a Quaker Monthly Meeting -- hadn't heard of one and my family never knew of our connection (or the McBee connection) to the Quakers. JOB doesn't sound right at all -- But those Hobbses were old -- I have a picture in online photo album if you want to take a look at John and Hannah Overman Hobbs.
