William Arthur Hodgson
« on: Wednesday 29 September 21 11:23 BST (UK) »
Where was William Arthur Hodgson in 1891 and 1901?
He was born in Hull c.1862 and by 1881 he was living with his parents and working as a cabinet maker.  He next turns up marrying Jane Anne Harper in 1884, and in February 1901 there's a bankruptcy notice in the Edinburgh Gazette which lists him as a cabinet maker living at 15 North Walls and Perrett St, Hull.  Then he turns up in 1911 as a licensed victualler at 131 Witham. 
But where was he on the missing censuses?  To add to the confusion there's a William G Hodgson but it's not him.  Any help appreciated.

Where is she in 1891/1901 or is she missing as well?

Did they have children?

Thanks so much for these.  From the censuses it looks like Jane was 3 or 4 years younger than William, so she was probably about 19 when they married.  Could you tell me the address in 1891 and 1901?

Many thanks.  I keep forgetting that FS is often better than Anc.
