here is a great link to look at:

also there seems to be some confusion of lack of information as to how many kids James Augustus Sobers had. There seems to be a large population in the NYC area. I have traced my name from:

James (?) Sobers Gr Gr Grandfather - married Alberta Green
Humbert Milton Sobers Gr Grandfather - " " Ala Edgehill
Elliott Sobers grandfather- " " Mary Jane Nance

if you can add to this infor please respond

Thanks for the website i enjoyed reading it but i still didn't learn anything about MY family. I'm going to try and see if there are anymore websites which will help me a little more. If you no of any i'd be grateful.

Thanks again

My grandfather who died years ago - lived in Trinidad WI - his father Ernest William Sobers hailed from Barbadoes. I need to find out if he is any relations to James Augustus and James Elverton. In my family the name William has been passed down to two generation. Any information will be quite a help.

sorry but i can't really help because i'm trying to find out as much as i can about the sobers family know and i'm not really getting very far!!! Do you by any chance know an adrian sobers who's related to sir gary sobers?? He passed away over 10 yrs ago and i'm trying to see if i can find any contacts to that family! Please let me know thanks

I do know for sure that my grandfather was first cousin to sir gary sobers, i'll try and find out more inregards to this relationship - maybe it might lead me to adrian and I'll let you know.

oh my gosh.... thank you so much... you don't know how long i've been waitng to get a message like that!!!! Again Thank you x
