Thanks for all the help. Margaret Gibbs

None of us who have replied on this thread are related to your Hodgson family, Margaret..

If you want to find Hodgson relatives, try "Search all Members Trees" under "Search" at the top of this page. Enter names of Hodgsons in your tree, and if any likely matches come up, you can try to contact the tree owners by clicking on "Find out More".

No guarantees that they'll reply, though, I'm afraid.

Thanks so much for all the help. Are you one of the Hodgsons. I have only started redoing my tree. I'm the daughter of John Hodgson who was born 1900. Margaret

If he married in Sunderland then this could possibly be his parents marriage:-

However you would need to buy the birth certificate to be sure of his parents names.

the cert should give you father's name if known.

Margaret - Welcome to the boards.

The other Margaret posted her query in 2004, and won't be looking for replies here now.

You can try sending her a private message - just click on her name at the top of her post.
If she still uses the email address she registered with GR, they will notify her that she has a message from you in the system, and she may then reply.

Of course, there may be many reasons why she might not reply.

Marriage certificate should give you his father's name and occupation, if known.

Hi all I know is my grandfather married Christiana Reay in Sunderland. He was Anthony Hodgson born in Deptford around 1863. I have been unable to find his parents yet.
Sorry to have taken so long to reply. Margaret Gibbs
