In the 38 year of his age
James and Susanna Sewall Hoban had 10 known children. The most well known of them was James Hoban Jr., a powerful orator and respected Washington lawyer who completed his career as the District Attorney for the District of Columbia. Family tradition held that an 1844 daguerreotype showed that James Jr., was the "spitting image" of his father. Like his father, James Jr., was very proud of his Irish heritage, wrote and lectured on Irish eloquence and wit, and promoted Ireland's independence from Great Britain.
