Since posting last I have found that on the actual 1911 Census return Charles Manns is stated as Stepson to William Hodges and Sarah Hodges (Nee Manns). The entry however is crossed out probably because he has married and has been entered on his own Census return for 1911.

Thanks Jeff For all the information you have found about Charles, it does seem that Charles used the Manns surname after the 1891 census, and the Charles Baker info is very interesting, thanks again Paul.

Hi Jeff, thanks for the info, Albert was my great grandfather His sisters were Ellen, Lily and Agnes and Brothers John who married Phoebe, and Charles who i have very litle info on, Charles Hodges was b 1878 this is in the 1881 census living with parents William And Sarah(nee Manns), they married at Dymock in 1880 so Charles maybe a stepson to one of them being born in 1878 , Charles is about 13 years in the 1891 census no more info about him after that, he may have used the Manns surname i found a Charles Manns b 1878 Kempley mother sarah, just a guess.

Hi Paul,
yes it does seems odd the children have disappeared off the FoD PRs, presume as you say they did leave the area. Shame you have no more clues ?

Clutching at big straws, using FreeBMD and assuming "local" moves, possibles might be;

Ellen ?

Hodges Ellen Woodward Stroud 6a 995 lthund

Yes she's young but... Pity she had no second name!

OR maybe if living near sister Gladys ?

Frances HODGES Baptism Record (reply)

Jefff — Sun, 03 Jul 2011 15:56:43 +0000

Oops silly me (it was very late last night...)
I've just spotted my obvious mistakes,
1. there are no later records available after the 1915 Baptism Record
2. Paul's original post stated "Frances d 1915"

Clearly, it was Frances who sadly died at birth in 1915, hence the note.

Howbist Slowhands, two questions if I may ?
First, thanks for the Census Details, despite my best search methods the Latter Day Saints site seemed rather sparse wrt the Hodges family. Is this typical of that site ?.

Secondly, please can you suggest possible meaning of the following "Notes" in Frances' Baptism Record ?. According to all the Records Frances and both "P"arents survived. Does it suggest a twin birth ?.
Thanks.
