Here we present an extremely interesting article on the Hobohm family history and the research that has been undertaken to unravel it. It was published in 1957 in "Unsere Heimat", the newsletter of the local history society of Schöningen and environs.

This article was kindly made availible to us by Uwe Hobohm of Basle, the brother of Annelie Hobohm. The marginal notes were made by their father Heinz Hobohm (1926-98), who was also very interested in genealogical research into the Hobohm family.
