Early Origins of the Hoborne familyThe surname Hoborne was first found in Greater London at Holborn. 1 2 This place dates back to the Domesday Book of 1086 where it was listed as Holeburne. 3 It literally means "hollow stream," "stream in a hollow," from the Old English "hol" + "burna." 4 5 Bald de Holeborn was the first listing of the family here in the Pipe Rolls of 1193.

| Hoborne migration to the United States | + |
Many English families emigrated to North American colonies in order to escape the political chaos in Britain at this time. Unfortunately, many English families made the trip to the New World under extremely harsh conditions.
