Personal Notes:
A recollection by W.G.Hobbs (Bob's brother) - after the war Bob received a letter from someone on the farm in Ireland offering him the position of manager. He turned it down. Why this offer from so far away? Was the 'older brother' of the older generation dead? Were his sons not interested?
