hodgson

A surname.
This well known English surname is of early medieval origin, and is one of the patronymic forms of the medieval male given name ''Hodge'', a pet form of ''Roger''. The Normans introduced ''Roger'' into England after the Conquest of 1066 as ''Roger'', which was adopted from the Germanic ''Roger'', composed of the elements ''hrod'', renown, and ''geri, gari'', spear. The equivalent Old Norse name ''Hrodthgeirr'' reinforced the form of the name in Normandy. The substitution of ''H'' for ''R'' as the initial in the English variants of ''Roger'' reflect the difficulty encountered by English people in pronouncing the Norman ''r'' sound. Early examples of ''Hodge'' as a given name are recorded as ''Hogge'', as in the 1208 Fines Court Records of Lincolnshire, and the first recordings of the surname are similar . The modern spellings first appears in the 16th Century, and the recorded forms include Hodge, Hodges, Hodgeson, Hodgson, Hodgett, Hodgetts, etc. Early recording examples include Ricardus Hoge in the 1379 Poll Tax rolls, Ebbota Hoggese in the same rolls, William Hodges listed in the Suffolk Subsidy Rolls of 1524, and Agnes Hodgett in the Marriage License lists of London for the year 1577. Where it occurs the final ''s'' as in ''Hodges'', is a reduced form of ''son of ''. The Coat of Arms originally granted in Gloucester in 1610 or thereabouts, has the blazon of a gold field, charged with three black crescents, and on a black canton, a gold coronet. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Alicia Hogges, which was dated 1327, in the Subsidy Rolls of Somerset, during the reign of King Edward 11, known as ''Edward of Caernafon'', 1307 - 1327.

Bishop Auckland is a market town and civil parish in County Durham in North East England. It is located about 12 miles northwest of Darlington and 12 miles southwest of Durham at the confluence of the River Wear with its tributary the River Gaunless. According to the 2001 census, Bishop Auckland has a population of 24,392.
The earliest known reference to Bishop Auckland itself is around 1000AD as land given to the Duke of Northumberland for defending the church against the Scots.

Much of the town''s early history surrounds the Bishops of Durham and the establishment of a hunting lodge, which later became the main residence of the Bishops of Durham. This link with the Bishops of Durham is reflected in the first part of the town''s name.
During the Industrial Revolution, the town grew rapidly as coal mining took hold as an important industry. The subsequent decline of the coal mining industry in the late twentieth century has been blamed for a fall in the town''s fortunes in other sectors. Today, the largest sector of employment in the town is manufacturing
