P_10433_0657 – Joseph Hodges
Co-owner (with different groups) of two slaving voyages from London in 1699 and 1704, one by the Unity to Africa and Jamaica and the other by the Joseph Gally to Africa and Barbados. It appears unlikely that this was [Sir] Joseph Hodges, later bankrupt in 1718, whose father Sir William Hodges MP was a director of the Bank of England and of the East India Co. and advocate for the Royal African Co. In the will of Joseph Hodges, a slave-owner in Jamaica, proved in 1719, he made the London merchant and slave-trader Humphry South (q.v.) one of his executors.
