Is there a connection? Hodgson - Brunskill
« on: Monday 22 March 21 16:00 GMT (UK) »
The posting on Mary Atkinson peeked my interest as to what connections there were between the Hodgson and Brunskill families.

Mary's mother (from my digging) was Ann Robinson - Ann was married to Robert Hodgson (b. 1740) and then to Wharton Brunskill (b. 1729).  What got me curious was that Wharton's grand-daughter Ann Brunskill (b. 1813) married Thomas Hodgson (b 1811).  Thomas's father was also Thomas (b 1761 Brough under Stainmore).

What I am wondering is if there is any family connection between Thomas (sr) and Robert.

(These connections assume that my research to date has followed the correct paths.)

Thanks for the feedback frederickay and ColC.  I don't have and Eubanks in my family tree (yet) so there may be a connection there.

Re the records referenced by ColC, those are my great-great and great-great-great grandfather's.  I am wondering if the Robert I mentioned in my initial message might be a brother of Thomas (bap 1767) or an uncle.

I was not familiar with FreeReq and will give it a further look to see what I might locate there.

Thanks Trish - are you basing the relationship on the dates from FreeReg?  I ask as the info I have would suggest that this Robert is the same Robert that married Ann Robinson in May 1767.  Info that I have been able to obtain to date suggested there were three children from that marriage - John, James and Elizabeth (Betty) but no Thomas.  If Thomas is from this marriage that would make this a shotgun / crossbow marriage as his baptism was four months after the marriage.  With Thomas and Robert being such common names it makes it hard to determine relationships without seeing more information from the records.
