About George Hodson

Married Jane Lyon 24th November 1839 in Skillington, Lincolnshire, England.

Marlborough Express on 12th and 13th March 1895 recount the story of his death and the inquest that followed. It would seem that George was depressed after a bout of sickness. He had been living in the home of his daughter and son-in-law ( the C. Patchetts) for several years. Mary Jane Patchett and her daughter Mrs Young (Agnes) found his body. He had been an active member of the Salvation Army and there was a large turn-out for his funeral.
