MY HODGSON FAMILY

�

Athur Hodgson (left) was my Grandfather from my father's side of the family.� We don't know a great deal about him�as he and my Grandmother, Agnes Ruth Graham Walker separated when their children were only small.� Arthur�by all accounts met another�female�close by, then left my Grandmother and went to live in the next street.� We don't know who�the�female�was or if they ever married but they did have a children and�they would be my late father's half brothers and sisters

We do know that after my Grandmother's father, Ezekiel Walker died in 1916 the family was split and my grandmother was sent to live with an Aunt in Keighley and we think this is how the�Arthur and�Agnes�met.� The couple were married in the Alice Street Primitive Methodist Chapel in Keighley on 31st of January 1925 and their respective occupations were given as labourer at the construction works for Arthur and worsted drawer for Agnes.�
