Read their story
The Hobart Family migrated to Australia owing to Grandmother's bronchitis. Settled in Fremantle. Moved to Busselton area under Group Settlement Scheme. Later moved to Albany. While employed by a small meats factory, Grandfather mutilated his hand. Life was difficult and very different from owning a grocery store in London.
