Burke's Family history indicates that there was only one John Hodder - son of Eli Hodder and Mary Drew and he was born in 1777. That history shows their children as Robert Hodder bap 26/12/1771 Broadway, Dorset, John Hodder born 30/3/1777, Ann Hodder died Aug 1803 unmarried, Elizabeth Hodder died on 1/3/1785 and there is no mention of Mary born on 9/9/1780. This is contrary to the Parish records which shows that Mary had a twin John? Eli Hodder was the son of a Thomas Hodder and the grandson of a Thomas Hodder of Monacute. The wife of the latter - Ann (Lewis) who died in 1763 has a chest tomb in St Catherine Churchyard, Monacute commerating her life. Robert Hodder married Sarah Chandler on 17/9/1796. The Hodders were originally from Dorset where they held the Manor of Langbridy and other estates.
