Born 1788

Son of John HUBBARD and Margaret KNOWLAND

In 1828 his brother Samuel was listed in Pigot’s National Directory as a Maltster living at Free School Lane, Blaby, Leicester.

In the Leicester record office there is a copy of a legal document written up after his brother Samuel's death showing Samuel's wife Sarah was the joint owner and proprietor with Charles and Charlotte Smith, (Charles was a victualler) and John Hubbard (supervisor of excise) of about twelve dwelling houses and properties. She had equal ownership on the death of Samuel. Obviously these named people worked in business together.
