Henry Hobbs married Marianne Davis at Christ Church in the Caerleon area of Newport, Monmouthshire on 4 March 1839 (NEWPORT vol 26, page 96, or see the parish register on FindMyPast). Marianne's father is John Davis, a Labourer.

They're still alive and well in 1891, living at 13 Lower Cross Street, St Woolos, Newport:
Henry HOBBS - Head-M-70 - Bridgewater, Somerset - English only
Mary HOBBS - Wife-M-60 (!) - Newport, Mon - English only
These are probably their death registrations:
Apr-May-Jun 1893: HOBBS Henry 69 Newport, Monmouthshire 11a 127
Oct-Nov-Dec 1895: HOBBS Mary Ann 72 Newport, Monmouthshire 11a 105 (her true age given in death!)
