Hi Angie
Here we go again (deep breath)
Elizabeth Hodgkiss b.1873 is either the daughter of an illigitimate child of Elizabeth Hampton or Elizabeth Hampton was married before to a Hodgkiss.Either way she isn't related to Grandpa Hampton.

Births:

Dec.1873/Dudley/6C/96/Elizabeth Hodgkiss
Dudley is the registration district for Bilston.
Also these Bilston christenings:
Elizabeth Hodgkiss/6/3/1825/Fa.John/Ma.sarah
Martha Kodgkiss/9/1/1820/Fa.Samuel/Ma.Mary??

hi jim
can you see martha on 1841
or a john or samual hodgkiss on any census
gosh this is a hard 1
have elizabeth born 1817 married thomas hampton in 1848 xmas day
all i can think is elizabeth born 1873 is the daughter of one of the hampton daughter
iv got ann hampton who could be her mum or sarah or hannah who are the daughters of thomas and elizabeth hampton
i also have marthas parents as frances hodgkiss and ann? she also had a brother called frances,but dont know how acurate this info is

Angie read my first note.Elizabeth Hodgkiss can't be a daughter of a Hampton or she would be Elizabeth Hampton.She has to be related to a Hodgkiss exclusively.As Elizabeth the granma didn't marry until she was 31 it's possible she was married before and Elizabeth Hodgkiss is related to that family.I'll have a look.

Hi Angie
Found this marriage:
Thomas Hampton = Elizabeth Hodgetts/Dec.1848/Dudley/18/447
Someone has a mistranscription.
I've checked 2 sources and they both list Elizabeth as Hodgetts.
go back and check your sources and see if they could be Hodgetts.

Hi
just spotted your question. I had an English teacher Winifred Hodgkiss whose husband Louis Hodgkiss was a writer from Shaw Lancashire. he died in 1977 but his books about mining may still be available. "The Black Gods Shrine" "Deep Shafts" and Underground legion". Winifred wrote a biography of her and her husband "Two Lives" She died in 1987.

I think you need to send for Thomas Hampton's marr. cert. this will give Elizabeth's status at the time and establish whether she was married before.Also Elizabeth in 1841 may have her with a child who is the parent of Elizabeth the G.dau.I don't have any units left for Ancestry so I can't look myself.Assuming this is her 1st. marriage you can then send for the birth for Elizabeth the G.dau.
So it's:
Marriage cert
1841 cen.
birth cert.
This will give all the info. you have asked for.
Regards Jimx

good idea jim at least it will say also if she was a hodgkiss or hodgetts,will keep you informed
many thanks for your help

Kia Ora Angie from New Zealand
When you have sorted out your Elizabeths let me know!
I have a THOMAS HODGKISS born about 1855. In the March Qtr of 1876 he married Caroline Reeves and had 2 children THOMAS WILLIAM HODGKISS birth registered June 1877 and EDWIN HODGKISS born about 1878.
Thomas (Snr) died in the Sept qtr 1880 and his wife Caroline remarried to my great grandfather's kid brother.
Two daughters followed before Caroline died in the March 1895 in Aston.
I don't know who Thomas William Hodgkiss married but there are 2 possible marriages in 1901 on the Free BMD.
If there's any likely connection let me know!
Perhaps someone may be able to send me the details of Thomas Hodgkiss born c.1855 on the 1861 or 1871 census?Regards

hi marleen
do you have any marriage or birth certs for the hodgkiss family
im a bit bewilderd by the sinces info cus iv got elizabeth surname down as hoskiss so dont know if she a hoskiss,hodgkiss or hodgetts
she is on 1881 living with her grandparents
i have her grandmothers maiden name down as hodgetts who married her grandad thomas hampton
so it all confusing for me at the mo
the marriage cert i was going to send for is reg in 1845 but there first child was born 1839 but of cause she could of been married before
