I have found reference to, and a description of, the Hodges Monument which is reputed to be in the church at Wedmore (? north-east chantry chapel).
The monument is described as a large Draycot stone standing up, with two brasses over it. The brasses have inscriptions regarding, (1) Capt. Thomas Hodges who lost his life fighting under a Dutch prince in 'Holland' in 1583 (death supposed to have occurred at the Siege of Antwerp), and (2) Thomas' grandson, George Hodges who died at Wedmore in 1654.
I would love to see a picture / photo of the monument. If anyone is familiar with this church, or knows of a site with photos of the monument, I'd very much like to hear from you.
Thanks
