Welcome to the Hodgson Clan website
If you bear the Hodgson* surname or are related to a Hodgson*, then this website is for you.
Look here for information on the origins of the Hodgson surname, on Hodgson families, and on other aspects of the Hodgson heritage.
Male Hodgson volunteers are needed to enhance the Hodgson DNA database and discover more about Hodgson origins.
A DNA test may help you find Hodgson relatives, identify which group of Hodgsons you belong, or establish Viking or other ancestry. For information on the Hodgson DNA Project click HERE.
Any male Hodgson or Hodson sending details of his new 37-marker Y-DNA test to Geoffrey M. Hodgson before 1st June 2008 will receive a free copy of Hodgson Saga (second edition) when it is published later this year. For details of the book click HERE.

This site is run and financed by Geoffrey M Hodgson. Unfortunately, there is insufficient time or resources to answer particular genealogical queries concerning family links, descendants or ancestors. However, anyone may register as a Hodgson Clan Associate and apply to share Hodgson genealogical information with others on this website. To register contact g.m.hodgson@herts.ac.uk
Comments and suggestions on improving this website are welcome.
