Could someone pl help with household members and anything else that could help determine if the following is the same Wm Hodgetts as above (which, thanks to all the fine people here, is confirmed for our tree over at BCC)?

This is all I have - I have nothing else to go on such as marriage to this Emma, etc
I DO have a photo of a 'Cousin Marion' that may be his daughter Marion listed on 1911; also, a photo of Bearwood Rd abt 1920 and I see the address in 1911 is 486 Bearwood Rd Smethwick. A little bit promising that I've found our Wm after 1881...

Thanks in advance for anything and everything you can offer, including opinions as to whether he is or isn't the same.

Here's the link to William Hodgetts on BCC - http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/fa ... tts-Family

also photo of Marion in our gallery - gallery/image_page.php?album_id=85&image_id=7600

and postcard - gallery/image_page.php?album_id=85&image_id=7601

I have added William and Emma separately for now but it looks very likely that's its the same William (carpenter)

Thanks again for your help RF!

Amy, it all ties in nicely and I have connected up William to his father Joseph here - http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/fa ... tts-Family

I think it's time we added 'Cousin Marion's photo don't you?

Yes RF, thanks so much from me too!
And thnx to you too, Mally! Yes I think Marion has her family now so adding her photo now seems safe to do!

Wm is completed now - the 1901 census info was supplied by RF (thnx!) in the Census Look Up forum so that's now stored there for the future ones who come looking after us.
I've also saved all this so if anyone needs any details not at BCC here, they'll find me through these two sites.

This has been so productive! I'm ready to move to the next - if I can stop the desire to work on all these additional wives' & children's info
Productive because you guys are the Best!

Going back to more of the Mystery People in the album and pick another out... it's getting harder though! I chose the easier ones first... yikes!
