I have at last tracked down my great x 2 grandfather in Dunton, Buckingham (1841 census). The sticking point being a mis-spelling in the Bullingdon petty sessions as Hodgson.
I would be grateful for a look up in Oxfordshire 1851 census for Joseph HOGSTON and Ann(e) BURNHAM. They are not in Buckingham in the 1851 census and Ann came from Oxfordshire. I also know she was not showing in Chislehampton, Oxfordshire in the 1851 census. Any leads appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi there,
I have looked in 1851 Witney Union census but not there.
Regards
Phil.

Thanks for your help with this. At least it narrows the plot a little!

Hi there,
Was your Joseph of Dunton born in 1831,
the son of William and Mary by any chance?
If so you might be interested to know I am
researching his brother George, born in
1820.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply and, sorry for the delay in responding. Yes, Joseph's parents are William and Mary so it looks like we are researching the same family. I am about 90% certain Joseph is my great great grandfather although he did not marry my grandmother Anne Burnham. Therefore my great grandfather George was named Burnham rather than Hogston. The name in Dunton does seem to have changed several times through the 17 and 1800's, showing also as Hoggeston and Hoxson making the family hard to trace back.
I would be pleased for any information you may have.
regards

Hello again
Many thanks for all your information, which has helped me take a large leap back after 6 months fruitless searching. Apart from where Joseph was when my g x 2 grandfather was born (and possibly his brother Edmund) I have some details on Joseph, his marriage and family after that time.
Please let me know if you don't have them, and would like them for your tree.
Thanks again
best regards
Christine

Really glad you found it useful Christine.
Yes, I would like information about Joseph
as I only have his birth date with no other
details. My Hogston family moved to Lancashire
in the 1870s looking for work but I think
many of the family members stayed there
longer.
There are quite a lots of images on the interent
of both Dunton & Hogston, have you seen them?

Hello Shadrach
Thanks for the extra info, I will look at the images as you suggest. My daughter who has moved to the NE of England tells me she has a friend with the surname Hogston, so maybe twigs from the Lancashire branch in Durham?
Joseph Hogston born about Aug 1831 Dunton, Bucks and named in Bullingdon Petty Sessions 6 Mar 1852 for an order in Bastardy by Ann Burnham born 1834 in Chiselhampton,Oxfordshire.
George Burnham (parents above ) born 9th Dec 1851 St Helens Workhouse, Abingdon,Berks.
(another son Edmund Thomas Burnham was born in the same workhouse 14th Feb 1855) I do not know at this time if Joseph was also the father.
Ann went on to marry John Baldwin in Worminghall in 1856, and then William Herring date unknown. Ann died in 1871.
Joseph married Mary Simonds b about 1832 from Weedon,Bucks in 1855.
In the 1861,1871,1881,1891 they are living at Whitchurch. (Mount Pleasant in 1881).
Children all born in Whitchurch.
James Simonds Hogston b.about 1858
Ruth Hogston b.about 1860
William Hogston b.about 1864
Jane Hogston b.about 1865
George Hogston b. about 1867
Mary Anne Hogston b. about 1869
Emily Ruth Hogston b. about 1870
Annie Hogston b.about 1874
In 1901 census Joseph and Mary have two grandaughters with them Florrie and Winifred M Duckingham.
That is as far as I have got with Joseph at the moment. If you want any information on the Burnhams please let me know.
best regards

Hi Barry
Thanks for your contact, although I do have some of the information, other details have been very useful. I guess we are distant cousins. I am also in touch with another distant cousin from one of Anne's brother's line. I would be happy to receive details of your line starting with Anne's brother to add to my tree.
If there is anything that I can help you with please let me know.
Thanks again
best regards
