Nathan Gobes was the next youngest son of Salomon Gobes and Grietje Content. He was born 2 December 1880 and was dealer and commercial traveller in metals by profession. On 14 May 1914 he married the non-Jewish Maria Wilhelmina Maartje Boers from Rotterdam, a daughter of Johannes Boers and Willemina Gennissen. As far as could researched, the couple had no children.
After having resided for some time in Zandvoort, the Gobes couple returned to Amsterdam on 10 July 1931 and they came living at Amsteldkade 94 ground floor. However, Nathan became a widower on 16 September 1936; he moved to Geleenstraat 8 I in 1938 but moved in later with his brother Machiel in Marnixstraat 370 1st floor on 17 May 1940. It took one week till Nathan was able to move to the 2nd floor and there he lived till he was taken 25 March 1943 to Westerbork. He was accommodated in barrack 68 there and five days later, on 30 March he was deported to Sobibor, where on arrival on 2 April 1943, Nathan Gobes was immediately killed.
