Hello Chris, according to what I've found, your late father-in-law was my mothers' 4th cousin. That's through my great-great-great-grandfather Joseph Hodgkins (1812 - 1851), who was the brother of Benjamin Hodgkins (c.1801 - 1867), who would've been the great-great-grandfather of your father-in-law, through Benjamins' daughter Esther, who was the mother of Tenney, also spelt in records Tehenney, Thyana & Annie.

Can send more to your email address if you wish,

Sean

Hi sean , thanks for your reply, when my husbands parents died my sister-in-law tried to trace the ancestry back , but kept hitting a blank wall, can understand now why with them using so many different surnames,  we live in Warwickshire, three of James and Lizzie's boys moved here some 50 Odd years ago, came with a farmer from bosbury.one sister still lives in bosbury though, plus cousins.The comments on this page are very good reading though, don't no if you could give me more information though.
