Sharing Information on Hodgson Families

"Since adding my message to your website I have already heard from an American cousin (many times removed). For someone who is new to genealogical research this is exciting stuff!" Rosemary Browning (Australia)
"I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for maintaining the Hodgson Clan website. Since posting my query on the Hodgson Clan website I’ve been contacted by two individuals that share my Hodgson ancestors. This is after years of trying unsuccessfully to make any contact. The first person to contact me was able to provide me with a picture of my Grandmother – something I didn’t have at all – as well as a photo of my grandfather when he was younger." Helen Gibson (Canada) |

Diane Alberico ( Hodgson)
I am looking for missing links in my family tree. My father passed away in 1975 in New South Wales, Australia. He was born 1925 in Leeds, England. His father’s name is Charles Arthur Hodgson, from Leeds, who married Eva Adelaide Surtees from Lanchester. My Father had also been married prior to my mother, to Shirley Ann Brown, from Leichhardt, NSW Australia.
Norman Armstrong nojarms@myallcoast.net.au
I am looking for present families of my line. Barnard Hodgson and Sarah Gedling had a son John who married Elizabeth Varty. Their children were Alfred William, John Edward, Edith, Frederick and my grandfather Joseph (born 1875, married Jane Winskill). My mother Florence 1901 was born at Nord Vue Lodge Armathwaite, Cumbria. I would also like to know any of the history of Nord Vue Farm which Elizabeth ran after John died.

My great-great-Grandmother was Alice Hodgson b 1805 Preston, Lancs. She married William Wrennall (Reynolds) in 1864. On their marriage cert, James Hodgson a brickmaker, is given as Alice's father. I have the death cert, of James Hodgson brickmaker b 1873 c. He died 27 Oct 1851 in Ribbleton Lane, Preston. I have been unable to trace him successfully in 1851 and 1841 censuses. I have details of James’s children from Preston graveyard.
Val Atkinson ( Hodgson) v.atkinson995@btinternet.com
My Hodgson's were in Bradford until Tom Hodgson b.1850, moved to Castleford as a glassblower. He allegedly had a small factory in Knottingley, and travelled to China to teach them to 'blow glass'. He was born in Horton, his father Squire Hodgson, a butcher, born in Allerton.
Paul Bartell paulbarthell@yahoo.com
My great-great-grandfather John Wilson Barthell married Luella Louise Hodgson. Her father was Robert Hodgson born in 1828 in Yorkshire, England. I would be very grateful for any information on him.
Maryanne Bayliss endless.summer@xtra.co.nz
I am searching for missing links in my Hodgson Tree. Richard Reed Hodgson was born in 1748 in Durham. He married Elizabeth Middleton in Chester-le-Street. He later married Ann Stafford. I am seeking information on Richard’s Parents. I understand his Father was probably Thomas Hodgson. My grandfather Robert Hodgson was born August 1828 in County Durham, England. He emigrated to the Ballarat Gold Fields in Victoria, Australia and settled in Otago, New Zealand in the Gold Rush around 1861-64. He died in Cardrona, N.Z. on 16 Dec 1893, leaving a widow with 11 children, one being my Mother Alice, a twin, then aged 2 months old. Robert’s Parents were William Hodgson born 1792 in Morpeth and Ann Embleton born 17 March 1790. Robert had seven siblings: Mary, Richard, Maryann, Edward, Benjamin, Sarah and Elizabeth. I would be most grateful to hear from any descendants and I would appreciate any leads. Thank you.

I can trace my Hodgsons back to Jonathan Hodgson 1755. I believe he was born in Rockcliffe in Cumbria in 1755. He married Rachel Furnace who was born in 1760; she was also from Cumbria. They had a son Thomas Hodgson, born in 1799 who married Eleanor Wright. I am now stuck and would find any information a bonus.

Rachel Bradley rjbradley81@hotmail.com
I am researching my family history and have drawn a blank with the Hodgsons. I believe my great-great-great-great grandfather was Featherstone Hodgson. I have the birth certificate for his son, born 30 September 1838 in the parish of St. Giles, New Durham, also registered as Featherstone Hodgson. He was brought up by his maternal grandparents, Christopher and Mary Bainbridge; he is with them on the early census returns and grew up as a Bainbridge. His mother, Jane Bainbridge, is not visible on census returns as far as I can see but would only have been 18 when her son was born. I have found a possible marriage of a Featherstone Hodgson in the district of Weardale in December 1838 but cannot confirm whether this was him. Neither can I identify him with certainty on census returns. I would be interested in hearing from anyone who has knows any more about Featherstone Hodgson.
Jan Bridges bridgejp@hwy.com.au
Phillis Hodgson married Thomas Bridges on 13 May 1794 in Houghton Conquest, Bedfordshire, England. She and Thomas had 13 children (I think), most of whom have been verified either through the IGI or through descendents of one of their children. I would really love to find out more about this lady as she is very elusive and seeing she gave the Bridges family so many ancestors, feel as if I need to give her some credit in our family tree.

After researching my family for years, I cannot find anything about my great-grandmother, Fanny Hodgson. She and my great-grandfather Albert William Browning were married in the Church of the Holy Trinity, Toronto, Ontario on 17 April 1884. Her maid of honour was Elizabeth Hodgson. Fanny gave birth to two children: a son Harry (1884) and a daughter Olive (1892) but then unfortunately died in childbirth. My Browning family lived in two locations: Frome, Somerset, England and Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Fanny had an album with family photos in perfect condition, from Belleville, Ontario; Brooklin, NY; Chicago, Ill; Des Moines, Iowa; Rochester, NY; and Winnipeg, Manitoba. If any of this strikes a cord with someone out there I would appreciate hearing from them.
Rosemary Browning grobis@tpg.com.au
My great-great-grandfather, John Hodgson, was born at Studley, Wadworth, Yorkshire in 1799. He and his wife, Annie Buckley Hodgson, and 6 children arrived in Sydney, Australia in 1837. Later that year they settled in Port Phillip (now Melbourne), where John Hodgson was to become Mayor and a member of the Legislative Council of the Parliament of Victoria. His parents were William & Mary Hodgson.
Dave Buckle davebuckle@sky.com
I am just starting out on a voyage of discovery into my past. My Hodgsons latterly came from Morley in West Yorkshire: Maureen and Colin Herbert going back one generation, Alice and Joseph another. Who knows where I am going, or indeed what I shall find, but I am sure I will need some help along the way.

My interest is in the family of Richard Hodgson (father John Hodgson) born c1820 in Preston, Lancashire. He married Mary Cardwell in 1841 in Penwortham. Their known children were William Sandyman born 1841, John Joseph born 1845, James born 1847, Sarah Alice born 1848, Richard born 1850, Mary Ann Selina born 1855 and Charles born 1857. William Sandyman Hodgson married Margaret Wearden in 1860 in Preston and emigrated to Australia in 1863. Enquiries or information about this family would be very welcome.
Doris Clements dorisclements@gmail.com
David Hodgson was born in 1793 and his wife Ann in 1797, we think in Beverley, Yorkshire, England. They are my great-great-grandparents. The 1841 census shows their four children: George 11, William 10, Elizabeth 7 and Susan 4. In the passenger and immigration lists index, David is listed as coming to Ontario
Canada in 1871. They settled in Enniskillen
Township, Lambton County, Ontario, Canada. Elizabeth Kells, David and Ann's daughter married William Kells. We would appreciate any information anyone has on this family.

I am trying to trace my family links to Hodgsons in the Whitby area in Yorkshire. My Hodgson male ancestors are: Joseph Hodgson b 1790, Joseph (John) Hodgson b 1806, James Amos Hodgson b 1859, Mirian Hodgson (my grandmother) b 1887 Whitby. ernied1@bigpond.net.au
I believe I am descended from John Hodshon, born 1570 County Durham. His son was William Hodshon, born 1598 County Durham. His son was Anthony Hodshon, born 1633 County Durham. His son was John Hodshon, born 1670 County Durham. His son was Ralph Hodshon, born 1702 County Durham. His son was George Hodgson, born 1741 County Durham. His son was William Hodgson, born 1791 in North Shields, Northumberland. He married a Margaret, and their daughter was Margaret Hodgson, born 1827 in North Shields, Northumberland. She married Edmund Tiplady, born 1829 Yorkshire. Their Daughter Jane Tiplady (born 1850 Durham) married Samuel Wile (born 1848 Durham). Their son was Samuel Wile, born 1887 Australia. Their daughter – and my mother – Jean Wile was born in 1919 in Australia. Any further information would be most welcome.

My grandfather was Alfred William Hodgson. He was born at Hunsonby and Winskill in Cumberland in 1878. His father's name was John and his mother was Elizabeth Varty. He had one sister, Edith, and brothers Joseph, John E, and Frederick. I would like to find descendants of this family. (née Hodgson) lizzie.england@gmail.com
I am the grand-daughter of Leonard Hodgson, an eminent theologian and philosopher. If anyone believes they are directly related to this line and want me to check the family Bible (updated since the seventeenth century) then please drop me a line and I'll see what I can do.
Angela Fal (née Hodgson) angela.fal@talktalk.net
My great-grandparents were: Matthew Hodgson of 129 Ark St, Consett, County Durham - coal miner/driver and Elizabeth Hodgson (née Carroll) of 6 Ark St, Consett, County Durham. My grandfather: was Matthew Hodgson - born 5 November 1917. He went to work as a projectionist at the Odeon Cinema in Clapham, this is where he met my grandmother Winifred and eventually they were married, they had a son Gerald Hodgson (my dad - born in 1939). My grandfather was called up for duty in around 1939-40. Sadly like so many of the brave men that went to war, he was killed in Damascus, Syria in July 1941 at the age of 23. Matthew Hodgson was in the Leicester Regiment - 2nd Battalion, his military number is 6023698, and he has the following war medals: Defence Star, Defence Medal, Africa Star, Middle East Star. At this moment in time this is the only information I have, I would dearly like to trace some of his relatives, maybe even find a photograph, as my dad has no idea what his father looked like, I would be grateful for any help.
Helen Gibson hgibson@telusplanet.net
My Hodgson line goes back to a Thomas Hodgson (born 1535 Witton-Le-Wear, County Durham) and his wife Margaret Patenson (born Witton-Le-Wear). His descendant Thomas Hodgson (joiner/carpenter/undertaker) was born 24 Nov 1831 in Monkwearmouth, County Durham, England. He married Dorothy, born about 1832 in Monkwearmouth. They had eight children (all born in Monkwearmouth): Margaret Hodgson was born on 20 Jul 1855 (married Wake Gibson, son of Wake Gibson and Isabella Kinnair, on 17 Jun 1877 in Brougham Street Tabernacle, United Methodist Free Church, Sunderland); Thomas Hodgson (painter) was born about 1858. Mary Hodgson was born about 1859; George Hodgson (butcher) was born about 1862; John Hodgson (blacksmith) was born about 1866; Dorothy Hodgson was born about 1868; Nicholas Hodgson was born about 1870. My direct ancestor is Margaret Hodgson who married Wake Gibson. Their son, my grandfather, Major Rev Dr John George Gibson, came to Canada in 1907 to study for the Methodist ministry.
Alan Glass sonoftherock@btinternet.com
Henry Hodgson married Marie Euphrasie Médard in Paris in 1822. Most of their children were born in Bordeaux. Their first son was Richard Médard Hodgson who moved to Birkenhead, Shrewsbury and finally Crewe. He had ten children – Henry Richard, William, Emma, Matilda, Mary Ann Eliza Jane, Richard Reuben, Benjamin Josiah, Caroline Amy, Alfred and Elizabeth Mary. 2nd son of Henry Hodgson and Marie Euphrasie Médard was Alfred Hodgson who settled in Arbroath in Scotland. Alfred's three children were Paul Hodgson who moved to Dundee, Alfred Hodgson Jnr (Boston, Lincolnshire) and Edward Smith Hodgson (Bushey, Hertfordshire).
Sharon Goodwin cerris.goodwin@ntlworld.com
I am trying to confirm a family story that my Hodgson ancestors originated on the Isle of Man. I have traced back to Francis Hodgson b c 1755 and his marriage in 1776 to Rebecca Askew in Maldon, Essex. The parish registers back to 1695 show that Francis was the only Hodgson in Maldon - no siblings or parents - and Rebecca Askew's family is the only Askew family there. There are other family names in Maldon that are said to originate in the Isle of Man – Quilter, Scarf, Cottier, Cowell. I have briefly searched the IGI and found Hodgsons scattered around the Isle of Man but not Francis. My ggg-grandfather and three of his children emigrated to Australia in 1857 and 1869. I am willing to share my research on my Hodgson line.
Katharine Anne Griffiths (née Hodgson) griffiths475@btinternet.com
I have records dating back to a Robert Hodgson, baptised before 1570. His son was Richard Hodgson, born 1616. His son was Thomas Hodgson, born 1640, died 1669. He married Issabel Windor of Fieldhead. They had 3 children, 2 of whom died in infancy. The line can be followed down through their son, John, who married Alice Jackson. If anyone is from this line, I would love to hear from them.

Mike Hall mikehallpnefan@talktalk.net
Hodgson was my grandmother's maiden name. Her family was Roman Catholic and she was raised in the Ribbleton area of Preston, Lancashire. She was the youngest girl of thirteen children, some of whom died in infancy. Her parents were John Hodgson (born 10 Oct 1855) and Margaret. All her siblings were christened at English Martyrs Church on Garstang Road, adjacent to where they then lived, in Ellen Street and the general area of Aqueduct Street in Preston. John had a sister Catherine (born 22 Sep 1852). John's father was Thomas (born 1833). I would be grateful to anyone who can expand on this information.
Jill Hamilton j.g@caribsurf.com
My great grandfather Robert Hodgson was baptised in Richmond in Yorkshire in 1802 (with a twin brother John), where his father William was listed as a paper maker. From further research it appears William was the owner of the paper mill. There are several William Hodgsons listed and I have been unable to positively identify his marriage or baptism, which is extremely disappointing. Any help would be welcome.

I am a direct descendant of George Hodgson (born 1700/1701), father of John Hodgson (b.1731), father of Hur Hodgson (b. 1767) ... Joel Hodgson (Hodson, b. 1819), Ira Hodgson (Hodson, b. 1847), Joseph William Hodgson (Hodson, b. 1880), Marley Hodgson (b.1909). I am most interested in getting the birth information of J.W. Hodgson in Tennessee, and the father and immigrant boat information on George and his family or fellow travellers.
Hodgson Clan Associates may wish to know about Hodgsons who were taken prisoner during the Jacobite Rebellions. http://genforum.genealogy.com/hodgson/messages/933.html mentions Philip Hodgson (#18) and Albert Hodgson (#48) and http://www.immigrantships.net/v2/1700v2/goodspeed17161018.html mentions George Hodgson.

My grandfather was James F. Hodgson who was born and lived in Leigh Lancashire until he immigrated to the USA in 1905. His father and grandfather were both named William Hodgson and they had a shop on Market Street in Leigh Lancashire from 1841 thru 1900. My line goes Robert, James, James, William, William, John. John was a "stone mason" in Great Driffield, Yorkshire. He is as far back as I have been able to trace my HODGSON ancestry. I would be thrilled to hear from anyone who knows anything of my English Hodgson ancestors.

I was born in 1982. My family is from New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. I have three younger siblings. My father is Ricky C Hodgson. His father is Maurice G. Hodgson Jr, who was son of Maurice G. Hodgson Sr. My mother was working on our family history, but Hurricane Katrina destroyed a lot of vital information. Sadly my grandfather and most of my Hodgson relatives have passed on. The only thing I have to work with now is a book my great grandmother filled out when I was born but it doesn't say much about our Hodgson Family. If you or anyone can help me with this in anyway please let me know.

Daughter Rhiann born Hannover 1989, Kieron born Hannover 1988 and Jason born Detmold 1984.
I have traced my direct Hodgson line to Robert Hodgson (b1805 in South Shields, Co Durham). His parents were Christopher Hodgson (b. 1772) in Haughton-Le-Skerne and Hannah Mitcheson (b. 1771) in Norton, Co. Durham. Christopher's father was also Christopher and that's where the trail runs cold! Any info on the Hodgsons in Haughton-Le-Skerne greatly appreciated.
Clague Hodgson chodgson@natx.com
Our clan of Hodgsons originated from Thomas Hodgson, Isle of Man, born 1805. There are hundreds of descendants of Thomas, living in America since the 1840s. Rumor established that Thomas’ father, John Thomas Hodgson, went to the Isle of Man from a place called “Felldyke” in Cumbria. We searched in vain for a long time for Felldyke before Google came along, then, presto. If anybody out there has information about this John Hodgson, or his ancestors from this region, please let us know.

I am interested in any information available about the descendants of Ralph Hodgson and Margaret Harland. The Harland's were apparently the family that owned the shipbuilding company, Harland and Wolff Shipyards, in Belfast, which built the "Titanic". In any case, Ralph and Margaret had a son, Harland Hodgson, who married Elizabeth Coop Ashton. They had a son, Henry, who was born on 11 Sep 1847 in Holbeck (nr. Leeds, Yorkshire) and died 30 Oct 1917. He married Mary Bannister (born 24 Jan 1851/52; d. April, 1911/12). One of their children was my grandfather, Henry Hodgson (born 18 Sep 1877). Henry owned several pubs, among which were the Cudworth Hotel (Cudworth), the Railway Hotel (Wombwell), the Station Inn (Wombwell) and the Crown Inn (West Mountain).
John Hodgson jajahod88@comcast.net
My great-great-great grandfather was Christopher Hodgson born in 1808. He moved to Nova Scotia, Canada, and his descendants are William Hodgson, Henry B.

Based on the year of his birth, Christopher's father may be either Mark Hodgson or Christopher Hodgson.
John Hodgson xhoni@yahoo.com
My Hodgson forebears come from Wallsend on Tyneside, and worked in the shipyards. My great-grandfather Charles Hodgson (married in Wallsend aged 25 in 1888) came from Norton-on-Tees, where his father George was a publican. This George Hodgson may have been born in Eppleby, North Yorkshire in 1837, marrying Mary Wharton in Norton in 1860, but my information is uncertain. The family appears to have moved from rural Eppleby to industrial Teesside and Tyneside, following the job opportunities of the industrial revolution. I would be interested to hear from anybody with knowledge of this branch of the family.

New Zealand has many Hodgson families, my own dates back to 1851 when my great grandfather Twentyman Hodgson arrived, in Lyttelton Harbour near the very young Christchurch settlement on the sailing ship Cressy from Raithby, in Lincolnshire. When aged 21 Twentyman married Sarah Ann Pattrich, aged 22, on 1 August 1876 at Wesley Church, Loburn, near Christchurch. He was a drover. (There was another Twentyman Hodgson about in Canterbury about that time.) Twentyman and Sarah had six children: Lucy, Bertie Lennox, Millicent, Muriel, Stanlet Anthony, and Pearl. My grandfather, Stanley Anthony H. married Grace Elizabeth Craw and they had four children, Muriel, Clarence W, Robert Stanley Lennox and Sylvia. My father Robert Stanley Lennox H.(Bob) married my mother Mary Anne (née Boyack) and they had six children Robert Anthony Boyack (Tony), Gereald Lawrence Boyack (Gerry), Judith Elizabeth Grace, John Lennox Boyack, Gregory David and Robin Mark.

My Hodgsons are from Co. Durham and Tyneside. In the 19th century they were master grocers and master butchers with what appears to have been either a chain or a related group of shops in Newcastle, West Rainton, East Rainton, Prudhoe and Jarrow. And possibly with links to Middleton-in-Teesdale. Any info gratefully received!

David Holohan david@holohan.name
I am researching Hodgsons who were direct ascendants of mine, living in Cloughton, Stainton Dale, Burniston (sometimes spelled Burneston), near Scarborough, North Yorkshire. I have many generations, dating back ultimately to the 1400s (but with some gaps), and ongoing research into parish records back to the early 1600s. My great-grandmother was Mary Ann Hodgson (born 1878).
Frances Ind frances.bill@blueyonder.co.uk
My Grandmother was Frances (Fanny) Hodgson. She was one of 13 children. I think her family were bridge builders based at Northallerton. A presentation paper knife featured on Bargain Hunt recently was presented by a Robert Hodgson in 1866, made from bone taken from a river bed during work to make a bridge. Perhaps he was my great grandfather or some other relative.

My father was Colin Hodgson, believed to be born in about 1940 and living in the Fulham area of London. He was apparently a member of the British armed forces. I was born in South London and adopted. I would be interested in more information about my biological father and his ancestry.
Ally MacLennan allymaclennan@hotmail.com
I am searching for Alan Walter Hodgson, long lost Father to David Alan Hodgson, born 1972 in Cyprus, where Alan was based in the armed forces until David was about 9 or so. Afterwards they lived in East Grinstead UK. David has a sister Susan Hodgson and his mother is Hazel (née Anderson) Hodgson. Alan Walter Hodgson was last known to have moved to Silicon Valley, USA in the late 1980, possibly with the armed forces, and has not been in touch since. David would love to get in touch with his father and has long since lost touch with both his mother and sister too. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Kenneth R. Marwood ken.marwood@aramco.com
I have traced our linage back to my great grandfather Samuel Hodgson (1840-1905) who was an Anglican priest & had 12 children with Lissie Brown. My grandfather G.A. Hodgson was born around 1880 & married Edith Mary Benson. William Hope Hodgson (1877-1918) was my grandfather’s brother so we are informed, but we need to check if this is correct. I have traced the Benson side all the way back to Edward White Benson, father of E. W. Benson, Archbishop of Canterbury 1883–1896.
Julie Mather-Johns matherjohns@btinternet.com

Gail Metcalfe gail.metcalfe@pei.sympatico.ca
My great-great-grandfather was Daniel Hodgson (1826-1896) who married Isabella Calvert (1826-1891). They lived in Laverton, North Yorkshire, England. Daniel's parents were Leonard and Elizabeth Hodgson (I think Elizabeth's parents may have been from Preston, Lancashire). In the 1861 census 5 children were living with them -- Arthur Preston; Daniel; Harriet Preston Calvert H.; Leonard; and Robert William as well as 5 servants. I would like to communicate with any descendants of this family who might have further information on them.

In 1618 Robert Hodgson was born in Warwick, England. In "June 1657 he came over the ocean to Amsterdam New York, where he was cruelly beaten and chained as a Quaker, under the government of Stuyvesant (ruled by the Dutch).” He married Rachel Alice Shatten - children Alice, Mary, and Robert. Also, in Virginia my husband’s ancestor Nathan Nichols (b. 1748, d. 1822) married in 1784 Hannah Hodgson (b. 1769) in Frederick Co. Va.. The Hodgson Home in Winchester
Va. – built in 1745 – is still there. I have stories relating to the families that lived there then and during the Civil War. Would love to hear from anyone related – willing to share what I can or exchange data.

A close DNA match with a Hodgeson/Hodson causes me to look for a relationship with my Hutson ancestors. Our oldest proven Moses Hutson fought in the American Revolution from North Carolina, but our match traces his line to early 1700s in Sudbury, Suffolk, England. Perhaps my Hutsons changed the spelling on the ship over! Any leads appreciated

Adele Smith 3aaas@xtra.co.nz
My earliest Hodgson ancestor is my g.g.g.grandfather Tyson Hodgson born 1804 in Penrith, Cumberland. He married Mary Hodgson (I have not yet established whether she was a cousin, or from another Hodgson line). Their son George was born in 1842 and married Mary Ann Harrison, also of Cumberland in Dec. 1864. Between this time and October 1865 George and Mary immigrated to Christchurch, New Zealand, where the first of 4 children were born. I have not established which boat they arrived on, or exactly when. There are many Hodgson families originating from Cumberland, in Christchurch, but I have not yet found any link between them and my Hodgson line. Any information would be very welcome.

Eric Stephens gleneric@xtra.co.nz
Joseph Hodgson, (my ancestor), seems to be the first Hodgson to be authenticated in New Zealand by reason of his marriage to Mary Prouse at the Waimate Mission, Bay of Islands, New Zealand, on 5 November 1840. Family tradition has it that Joseph was the third son of a Hodgson family that owned ships that traded stores out to the penal colonies in Australia. Joseph is thought to have served a veterinary apprenticeship in Lancashire, and travelled as an “adventure” on one of the family ships to Sydney. A side trip was made to New Zealand, to visit the Williams family at the Mission station. More information would be gratefully received.
Lorraine Sterry lsterry@netspace.net.au
I am researching the family of Christopher Pemberton Hodgson, born Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire, England, in 1821. He was the son of Edward Hodgson, vicar of Rickmansworth and his wife, Charlotte Pemberton. Christopher Pemberton Hodgson was the first British Consul in Hakodate, Japan, from 1859-1860 [see G. M. Hodgson Hodgson Saga, p. 54]. Although there is quite a lot of information about him, I have been unable to find out anything much about his wife, not even her name. The British 1861 Census notes that she was born in France, but her name is simply listed as Mrs. Panberton (sic) Hodgson, Wife. I would appreciate any details about her or their daughter, Eva.

Robert Telford
My great-great-great grandfather, William Telford, was christened in Scaleby, Cumberland, in 1777. He was the son of George Telford and Mary Hodgson who were married by license in Bewcastle. Mary is believed to be the daughter of John Hodgson esq. and Ann his wife of Barclose in Scaleby. George and Mary's first son John was christened at Bewcastle. John Hodgson died at Scaleby in 1777 at age 65 - four months after William's christening. I believe George and Mary lived at Barclose at this time helping with the farm.

Sarah Jane White sarahjane.white@tesco.net
My grandmother Ivy Wilcock had a very dear friend who lived for her for over 25 years by the name of Frank Hodgson. He died in late 1960s. I did not know him at all, but have many photos of him. I believe Frank and his brother Edward were both at some time in their lives connected with the theatre, as I have photos (probably about 1920s or older) of them both on stage. I’m not sure where they were born (probably Yorkshire, but I cannot be sure). Frank was in his 80s when he died whilst under the care of my grandmother. I wonder if anyone remembers them or if anyone is related. Frank did not have any children of his own and I am not sure if Edward had any either. It would be great if anyone could give me more details.
