The Hodgetts name sprang up in various parts of England but is particularly associated with the Midlands where it first appeared around Dudley Castle.
This site will trace the family in that area through six hundred years before a group of brothers set out for the Victorian goldfields in 1852 and founded a new Australian branch.
While not every branch will be covered, it is hoped this will become a useful resource for many Hodgetts descendants. It will be structured chronologically.
Associated families will also be added over time.
