Father Israel HODGSON, b. 1771 d. 1849, Lee, Heptonstall, Yorkshire (Age 78 years) Relationship natural Mother Ellen RILEY, b. Abt 1776, Wadsworth, Yorkshire d. 1815, Hob Cote, Wadsworth, Yorkshire (Age 39 years) Relationship natural Marriage 21 May 1797 Halifax, Yorkshire [2] Notes - In the baptism of Hannah in 1800, it describes Israel and Ellen living at "Clough in Wad". Wad is assumed to be Wadsworth. Whilst some of the records describe the occupation of the father, I do not think there is such an occupation, rather it means, particularly near the Pennines a "steep sided ravine". So presumably this is where they lived, and therefore he is a labourer rather than have a skilled occupation.
