Hi. All.

I was born in Cowpen Quay and reading these posts (great bytheway) I realised how little I know about the area of my birth.

You probably know about Dave Edwards artwork, but just in case anyone is interested he has some wonderful examples of his work ( including Hodgson's Mill)  at

Thanks for the info.

Bill.

I am very pleased that you have found the information so useful. It is joy to discover these things especially when it relates to families from the past.

If you would like a picture of the mill or indeed copies of both the images I posted right at the beginning of this thread in REPLY 2, send me a private message with your email address and I will gladly send you a digital image that will print off nicely onto A4 paper.  The image will make a nice addition to your family history archive, you could also use it as a computer background image.

Information for Gmac101.

Ebay has an old book that was used by Hodgsons in Blyth re the Lloyds Register for ships dated 1877. Thought it would be of interest given that it was probably handled by his relative. I'd love the book myself but can't stretch to it!

The maps and images are really interesting. I too have a connection to Hodgson's Mill. A few weeks ago I was looking for information on the birth of my 3x great-grandfather, Samuel Carlisle, and Angelfish pointed me to an article in the Newcastle Courant of Feb 1848 announcing his death and it stated that he had worked at the mill for 35 years. Most of his children were born around there although he was born in North Yorkshire and married in Bishopwearmouth, Co Durham. Samuel's son, John, was also a miller there in the 1851 and 1861 censuses but my 1871 was an 'engine driver at flour works'. Another son, Matthew, was also a miller and emigrated to Canada in the 1850s.
Can I download the images etc and add them to my A****ry tree as I have other members of the Carlisle family connected to it?

Thanks for the tip Phil - But £500 or more would blow my family history budget for the next 5 years.

It was probably owned or used by my 3rd Great Grand Uncle Joseph Hodgson  He was the 3rd Son of Joseph Hodgson Sen. (died 1858) he actually started the expansion of Hodgsons Mill.  I'm descended from Joseph Sen. 4th Son Thomas who was "just" a master Mariner.

Joseph Hodgson Jun. was involved in the managment of Shipbuilders Hodgson & Soulsby and it's Sucessors, though to date I don't have a record for him as a Lloyds agent, though his father definately was
