Hopgoods in Hampshire, England
I am just starting to trace my husband's family.His father, James Edward Hopgood was born in 1900 at Hurstbourne Tarrant. He had five brothers - George, Jack, Bill, Frank and Reginald and two sisters, Frances (Fanny) and Florence. His father was known as George and married a Susan Gale.
My husband's sister remembers her father telling her that he had to walk from Hurstbourne Tarrant to Stoke to go to school although I am unsure if there was a school there.Interestingly, I have found a Hopgood's Farm in Stoke on an old (1877) OS map.
If anyone has come across these Hopgoods during their hunting, please get in touch!
