Hi,
Is anyone researching the following:
Hodgson ( Sutton / Sculcoates, Hull)
Crawforth - Sutton / Easington/Otteringham
Longhorn - Sproatley / Aldborough
Greenhorn - Sproatley
Major - Drypool
Robinson - Easington
Penington - North Newbald
Moore, Cartwright, Torr - Hull ( various areas)
This is the furthest north my partner's ancestry has gone so far. I'm not sure whether he likes the thought of having Yorkshire blood but I say it is probably his saving grace!
Cheers,
Jen

Hi Jen

Hi,
I don't know if they are connected but my partner's Hodgson link is through John Hodgson who married Margaret Longhorn Crawforth in 1866.
Her parents were James Crawforth and Jane Longhorn, who was the daughter of Samuel Longhorn and Mary Greenshaw. I suppose it is possible that your Samuel was her brother, though I have no record of him - just lots of sisters and one brother, George.
Do you have any more information on the family?
Regards,
Jen

My partner's Crawforths go back to his 5 x great grandfather:
i) Richard Crawforth, who was born around 1700 in South Yorkshire, possibly Easington. ( wife Mary Robinson)
ii)William Crawforth, born 1737, Easington, married Sarah Major ( born 1750)
iii)James Crawforth, 1797, Sutton, Hull, married Jane Longhorn ( they had offspring - James, Margaret, Robert, Sarah, George, William)
iv) Margaret Longhorn Crawforth, 1841, Sutton, Hull, married John Hodgson
That's about as much as I know about them as the name then dies out in my partner's line.
Hope it is of some help and please do let me know if you can see a connection. It isn't such a common name, so I imagine there will be a lonk somewhere.
Regards,
Jen

Hi Jen,
Thanks for getting back to me.
I've heard of what we call the LONGHORN connection and I think I have a copy of part of tree in my filebox.
I've had some people thinking we may be related anothers thinking not. :-\
Not been able to find a link so far though it would be great if we could I think there is one somewhere.
Will dig out the CRAWFORTH tree for that branch and have another delve and look see

Hi Jen,
Sorry about the late reply, I've been trying to find a connection but without any success. There are that many brothers and sisters with the same names, it's a minefield trying to marry them off to the right person. If I find a connection I'll be back in touch.

Hi Jen,
I've have a few Hodgson's and one Longhorn in my family tree, through a connection with the villages of Holderness such as Easington and Kilnsea. The only Longhorn I have is a Matilda Longhorn who married a man named Medforth Tennison. Someone on this thread has already mentioned a Samuel Longhorn who is buried in Easington Churchyard and I'm trying to make the connection with Matilda through this, as I have found that I am related (so far), to about 35 people who are buried in that small graveyard. For those with a strong family connection to the villages of the Holderness coast, I advise you to look at the Easington Headstone project. It a website that plans to list and picture all the headstones in the churchyard up until it's closure order in 1883. The majority of the grave stones are in impeccable condition given their age. The site is still very much a 'work in progress' with new names added frequently. If you don't find what you're looking one day It's worth popping back another. Please note, I have no affiliation with the author of the page nor the page itself. I merely mention it as it has been invaluable to me in my family research and hope it can benefit some of you guys in the same way. The link is below.

My great grandmother was married to a John Hodgson born Kilnsea in 1865. They were together in 1891 census in Hull but by 1901 she was with my great-grandfather William Gibbins. She kept the Hodgson name as they never marry until she married another man John Andrew in the 1930s.
I have no idea what happened to John and would like to find out.

Thanks for that link, Gryphon :)
I need to double check, but I think the grave photo shown for a Samuel Longhorn is the uncle of my gtgt grandfather Samuel Longhorn who is buried in Kirk Ella.

My ggggrandfather was Samuel Longhorn who married Jane Kirby. Samuel married in 1871 and passed away in 1877. I believe both he and Jane are burried at Moorsholm. His parents were Thomas Longhorn and Lois Dickinson. Lois was from Garton on the Wolds and was born in 1804. Does this link to anyone elses interest in Longhorn.

My great grandfather was Charles Edward Crawforth born in Hull although his parents / grandparents were from Out Newton/Preston/Patrington/Paull etc.
I have amassed a huge family tree going back to 1681 for the Crawforths and have literally dozens of names and details of BMDs for every Crawforth up to the present day.
I have it on an Excel document that is easily e-mailed to any interested parties in return for any scans of old photographs of any Crawforths or details prior to 1681.
I also have quite a few photos to exchange as well.

Hello Ian
I hope you are Ian Foster born 1960. If so we are 7th cousins. We are connected through Eliza Mason ( 1808 - 1895) = David Crawforth (1785 - 1859). I'm cleaning up the Crawforth's on my "Harker" Tree and came across your posts on RootsChat. I too have a very large Excel tree (5000 plus cousins of yours) which you may find of interest. I would be most interested in your Crawforth tree - as I have many dead ends etc. It would be great to make contact. Kind regards: Charles Harker

My 4th great-grandmother was Ann Hodgson born in 1802 Kirkbymoorside to William and Ann Hodgson. I can't get any further back than that on my Hodgson line.

Hi,
Is anyone researching the following:
Hodgson ( Sutton / Sculcoates, Hull)
Hi Jen
I'm researching the HODGSONs originally from Lockington in East Yorkshire - some ended in the Hull area. My own 3G grandfather (John HODGSON 1788-1853) brewed ginger beer in Hull and many of his descendants went into the wine & spirit trade.

My 2xgt grandmother was Hannah Hodgson b 1820 in Walkington, she appears to have been the eldest of six children, the youngest of which was Cecilia b 1837 in Lockington, their parents were George and Mary Hodgson (nee Pickering)

Hi Bee
My Lockington HODGSONs are descended from William (1743-1825) and Elizabeth (born DOSSER) (1749-1819) - their children were
William
Richard
Jane
John
Mercy
Samuel
My ancestor is John who travelled north to Newcastle-upon-Tyne, married a Mary ALLISON from Alnwick, moved back to Hull with 3 children, and completed their family of six children before moving to Pontefract. Only the eldest son stayed in Hull, two others ended in the wine and spirit trade in the Harrogate area.
Of the other Lockington born children I known nothing about William, Jane or Samuel; Richard I believe was a gardener in Beverley. Mercy married a William REASTON and I understand her tree has been extensively researched.
