Trying to find Hodgson

Hello, I have a bit of a dilema with my family tree! My dad recently went to put a gravestone on my Gt Gran (Annie May Preston, Married my Gt Grandfather Thomas Curtis Hodgson) When my dad went to Lancashire council to find where the plot was he was told that there was two people buried in the plot. The other person was a Sarah Hodgson born 1885 died age 33, so died in 1933. We have no idea who Sarah Hodgson is, we have theories, one being that she is a sister of my Gt Grandfather, but would make her born in the same year as one of his brothers Richard Hodgson, so either a twin or just very close pregnancies, but she is not mentioned in records or anything, so that theory is flawed. The other theory is that she is my Gt Grans second husbands 1st wife. I'm not sure about this theory, as in those days the husband would have been buried with the 2 wives, but John Hodgson (my step Gt Grandfather) isnt buried with them. Im not sure how to find if any of these theories are true or how to find out who Sarah Hodgson is, so any help form anyone would be fantastic. Thanks for reading my wee story! Vicky |

It would help if you gave a town so someone could do some look ups. If she was b1885 died aged 33 her death would be 1918. Probably was her married name Hodgson and there are a few Sarah's married to Hodgson in Lancs !900-1918 so but location of grave could help. |
