James Hobart

He performed some legal services for John Mowbray, duke of Norfolk and is likely the James Hoberd who went to parliament in 1467 and 1478, representing Ipswich.

[2] Hobart was one of the men appointed to seize Calais for Henry VII and take possessions of the king and other townspeople.

[2] Hobart left the attorney general office in 1507 following a controversy involving writs of praemunire facias.

[10] His daughter Catherine (by which wife is not known) married Thomas Curzon (d. after 1610) of Beck Hall Manor in Norfolk.

[1] A caption in Latin beneath them reads, Orate pro aia Jaci Hobart, milit.

& attornati dmi regis, qui Hanc ecclesiam a primis fundamentis condidit in tribus annis cum suis propriis bonis, anno regis Henrici septimit undecimo.
