Hoby died on 30 December 1640 and was entombed with the remains of his wife in the Hackness parish church.
Sir Thomas Hoby (1566 – 30 December 1640), also spelt Hobie, Hobbie and Hobby, was an English gentleman and politician who sat in the House of Commons at various times between 1589 and 1629. A Puritan, he has been claimed as the inspiration for Shakespeare's character Malvolio in Twelfth Night.
A memorial to him was erected in the church at Hackness in 1682 by Sir John Posthumous Sydenham (1643–1696), the son of Hoby's principal heir and a knight of the shire for Somerset.
There is an even more impressive memorial to him in All Saints' Church, Bisham, where a painted statue of Hoby is among a family group on his mother's monument in the Hoby chapel.
