David:I'm researching family NOBIS and was having a devil of a time finding anything; although I was certain the name would be of Germany origin....then, Eureka!I found that "my" Nobis was originally GroBe-Nobis from Germany.When my greatgrandfather came to Nebraska in May 1879, he dropped "GroBe" (by the by, I'm told that Americanized GroBe would be Grosse).I've received so much help "accidently" I thought I'd answer your message and hopefully it would assist you.
