As far as I have been able to tell, everyone with the Hubbersty spelling today comes from the line started by Rose Alice Hubberstey. In the 1911 census Rose Alice is listed as Rose Alice McCann, but her children are listed as Hubbersty, even interestingly her son by Thomas McCann (probably an error).
At the time of the census the family lived at Bradshaw Lane, Grappenhall, Runcorn. Thomas McCann is listed as born 1868, Donegal, Corlea and at the census was "Bright Steel Bar Drawer".
Thomas Hubbersty (s/b Thomas McCann) b. 1908, Runcorn, Cheshire
William Hubbersty b. 1902, Preston
Ignatius Hubbersty b. 1898, Preston
Rose Alice's sons William Patrick and Ignatius Francis were born before she married Thomas McCann, and so carry the Hubbersty name. I suspect we will never know how the spelling switched from Rose Alice's Hubberstey to Hubbersty. (more info on this line is here.) This line starts with Robert Hubberstey and Mary Culcheth and then moves through John and Elizabeth.
William Patrick Hubbersty married firstly Margaret Ann Marsh and secondly Ellen (Nell) (Ratcliffe) Woan. He had two sons by Margaret Ann Marsh born between 1928 and 1931.
Ignatius Francis Hubbersty married Elsie Callan and they had 5 children, 4 sons and a daughter, born between 1925 and 1937.
