Hodgetts to Christopher to Bird Harper Connection

mumbles · Post by **mumbles** » Wed Mar 27, 2013 8:37 pm

Whilst following Christopher to Bird connection on another thread I noticed a forum on rootsweb posted by descendants of Leah Attwood Christopher
Grand daughter of Joseph Christopher and Emma Yates

http://www.bcconnections.tribalpages.co ... nd=2209268

Post was as follows :-
Marriage :- 14/6/1934 Cradley
Alfred Hodgetts 47 Cable Maker of 36 Intended Street father Alfred (Dec) Chain Maker
Leah Attwood Christopher 46 Sorting Clerk Hathaway House father Thomas Attwood Gent
Witnesses Cyril Hodgetts & Ann Maria Worton

Leah was daughter of Alice Christopher ( dau of Joseph Christopher & Emma) and Joseph eas son of William Christopher and Elizabeth Harper. Alice had a relationship with a Thomas Attwood born 1818 son of a Joseph and Mary Attwood and Leah was their daughter out of wedlock

Alfred Hodgetts was Son of Alfred Hodgetts and grd.son of Edward Hodgetts & Maria Beasley Cox ( sister.in.law of Rebecca Selina Harper)

Thomas Attwood was previously married 5/8/1838 Clent to Mary Ann Fellows and was much older than Alice

Most of these names are on bcc but not connected so this info may help to do so

Sister of Elizabeth Harper was Rebecca Selina Harper (on bcc)

Could no find Emma Yates marriage but her mother Hannah Yates is with her on two census records

Alfred Hodgetts senior married a Keziah c. 1881 to 1891 but cannot find marriage
His father Edward Hodgetts ( on bcc ) who married Maria Beasley Cox ( on bcc) who was sister in law of Rebecca Selina Harper ( sister of Elizabeth Harper) is on 1901 Census living with Alfred Senior.
I will add Alfred senior Census records
