Hello Anne,

Further to your post of the Cork list, I have some details of the Hodder family you mention. You may well have the following details regarding Susan and John, plus those of her father Francis of Ballea Castle. I have more details of her siblings and ancestry that I can share if you are interested (email, gedcom etc). For fun sake, I calculated that Susan and I are 3rd cousins 4 times removed, with common ancestors being Samuel Hodder of Ringabella and Elizabeth Boles.

My father: Colin Edward Cunningham Stewart b 1911
His father: Edward Henry Stewart b 1881
His mother: Geraldine Mary Laura Hodder b 1841
Her father: Edward Mulberry Hodder b 1810
His Father: Edward Hodder b 1762
His father: Thomas Hodder of Bantry, Co Cork
His father: John Hodder of Ringabella, Co Cork (md 1722)
His father: Samuel Hodder of Ringabella (md Elizabeth Boles).

I would be interested in knowing your interest or link to the Hodder family and would be pleased to here of any descendant of Susan and John.
