In Lee Co VA, there is a Vincent Hobbs family that came from Maryland. His son, Vincent Hobbs, is credited with shooting Benge, the Indian, at Big Stone Gap area. The Vincent Hobbs family, of which there are millions/billions descendants, are not relatives of the Solomon/Winiford Hobbs family. I have Vincent on my maternal side and Solomon on my paternal side. I, too, would like to know the ethnic identity of both families and whether or not they have common ancestors way back somewhere. SueBee
