Note 1
!Note: Robert, John, and Hugh’s father, William Hotchkiss of Hawkeswood [~1347 - ] owned property in Mawdesley, Croston, Lancashire. Date prior to 20 Dec 1372 and must have done other business nearby such that his sons were introduced to the place. He may have gone to York to pickup the name Hodgkinson, and later brought his sons there as well.

Closure status: Open Document, Open Description
Note: Outlawry means he was repeatedly summoned and never appeared. This could just mean he wasn’t actually present in the county. The court labels him “of Aston.” That often means legal association, not physical presence. Gybson as a second surname may imply an association with another family, for instance in-laws.
