Lynda Tuckwell:
I am trying to trace the birthplace and home of my father - Peter Wakefield Baron. It was called Cambourne House and it is in Rye. It was home of Cedric Hodgson, a prolific Artist and musician in and around Rye in the early 1900's. I dont intend to contact the owners - just interested to see where it was when we visit Rye this year. Can any one help please? Lynda Tuckewell

Hi Marianne
Cedric was my paternal Grandfather. We know little of him as my father was estranged from his parents and did not talk a great dealabout his childhood. I know Cedric lived in Rye in Cambourne House. All I know of this was it was on a Hill in Rye where he also ran a printing business. Later on he painted and sketched under the alias - Baron of Rye and later still, changed his name by deed poll to David Baron. He was married to Florence and had one son Peter Wakefield Baron - my father. Florence and Cedric used to play the piano and violin at local tea dances in Rye in the early 1900's Hopefully one day, I plan to visit Rye to find Cambourne House and some of the places my father has mentioned. My fathers ashes are scattered on the beach at Winchlesea where my father used to swim as a boy. Sorry I cannot be of any further help, but I would be grateful if you find out any more info! Regards,
Lynda

Hi Melcin
Yes definately, I dont possess any of my grandfathers work, although we do have some 'rough' sketches. Sounds really interesting.

Hi Peter
Thanks for replying. Yes this would be my grandfathers work. He sketched many buildings around Sussex, Hants and the surrounding area. This sounds really interesting!

Hi Wendy
Thank you so much for replying. My Grandfather Cedric Hodgson painted under the name Baron of Rye and later changed his name by deedpole to Baron. He was an accomplished muscian and owned a printing company in Rye in the early 1900's. My father Peter Baron grew up in Rye , but unfortunately, my grandfather died long before I was born. I am planning to make a trip to Rye to see if I can find the house where my father grew up - Cadborough House, on Cadborough Hill (spelling?) Do you know it? My father who died 6 years ago never talked about what was a very unhappy childhood and I am eager to find anything I can about my Grandparents and would love to find some of his artwork.
Many thanks again

Hi Stephanie
This sounds very interesting. Unfortunately, due to sad circumstances, we have none of my grandfathers art work and I would be very pleased to learn more about the etchings you have. It is interesting that your friend is a musician as my grandfather was also a musician playing the violin.

Hi, This is really exciting for me! My Grandfather was Cedric Hodgson who worked under the name 'Baron of Rye' He later changed his name to Baron, which was my surname until I married. Do you still have the picture?
