Looking om the computer I found this;
Clarence Charles Hobart founded 5 companies
1. The Hobart Electric Co. founded in 1886 in Middletown, OH and destroyed by fire in 1890.
2. Hobart Electric Manufacturing Company was founded in 1897 in Troy, OH. CC Hobart and J.A. Johnson were the first to apply electric power to food processing by building the first electric coffee grinder the company was sold to partners in 1904 as the Hobart Manufacturing Company. The Kitchen Aid trade name was first used in 1918, Dart & Kraft aquired it in 1986 and it became PMI Food Equipment Group and was aquired by ITW in 2000.
3. The American Fixture Co. was founded in 1904 in Troy, OH. Part of the business was sold to his partners in 1914, company was closed in 1949.
4. The Hobart Brothers Company was incorporated in 1914 in Troy, OH with his sons Charles Hobart as Finance, E.A. Hobart as Engineer and William Hobart as sales. The initial products were for automotive service including battery chargers, air compressors, and power washers. They built their first welder in1925, opened the Hobart Welding School in 1930 (now Hobart Institute of Technology), started Hobart Steel Welded House Co. in 1932, began manufacturing electrodes in 1937, built first aircraft ground power generator in 1946, Microwire welding system developed in 1960-61, sold to ITW in 1996.
5. The Hobart Cabinet Co. was founded in 1926 in Troy, OH with his oldest son Charles as President manufacturing metal office furniture, company still exhist today.
So from what I read seems like all in the same family just different combinations of father and sons depending on each division.

He farms around a hundred and fifty acres of arable land, in a village called Southam, located just outside Leamington Spa in Warwickshire.
