    Desperately seeking information on Jesse Mae POTTER Hobson. I have no birth dates or death dates, but she would have been born around 1885 - 1890. She married William Edwin Hobson and they had five children (Anna Lee, Garland, Potter, Graham, and Raymond). I know she is buried in Walnut Ridge Cemetery in Jeffersonville next to her husband but nothing more of her is known to me. I am working with someone on the Hobson line, so only Potter knowledge is needed. This line has eluded me for quite sometime. Any info whether related or not would be deeply appreciated, even speculations would be more than welcome. She would possibly be found in Harrison and Floyd County, as well as Clark County.
