Notes:

[1]“Suff”, meaning “Suffragan” - an assistant to the Bishop of the Diocese. Prior to the Reformation, a Suffragan Bishop would have been consecrated to a see in a ‘foreign’ land, in this case, presumably Achadoe (Aghadoe) in Killarney, Ireland.

[2] Francis HODGSON was born 16 Nov 1781, and died 19 Dec 1852. He was buried in Eton College Chapel, and has a memorial in St Mary Magdalene's Church, Eardisley in Herefordshire. He married Elizabeth, second daughter of Lord Chief Justice Thomas DENMAN.

[3] After the Reformation, Suffragan Bishops maintained their status as assistants to the Bishop of the Diocese. By 1897, Derbyshire was in the Diocese of Southwell (Notts.). It was transferred from the Diocese of Lichfield in 1884, achieving independence in 1927, when the Diocese of Derby was created.
