I'm trying to find the mother and father of my Great Grand father Samuel Hodgkiss (1892).

Samuel Hodgkiss (1892) was born in CANNOCK Chase, Staffordshire England.

At some point the family fled Cannock Chase and moved to Barnsley South Yorkshire. Unsure of the exact date when this happened. We also know that John Hodgkiss (1880) was left in Cannock Chase by the family.

Here is a list of his brothers and sisters Samuel was the youngest.

If you think you have any information on any of them please let me know.

John Hodgkiss (1880)
Annie Hodgkiss (1881)
Richard Hodgkiss (1882)
George Hodgkiss (1884)
Alice Hodgkiss (1886)
James Hodgkiss (1892 ish)
Samuel Hodgkiss (1892)

Any information would be great full.

Many thanks Simon Hodgkiss

Hi Si, I have the same tree as yours and you have the wrong place of birth.
His Parents were born in Staffordshire and some of his siblings but Sam was born at Hoyle-Mill Barnsley S. Yorks/
