See vol. I, p. 33 of this work, for his refusal to accept translation to one of the greater Companies on his election as Alderman until he had been committed to the custody of one of the Sheriffs. His daughter married Sir Thomas Pope, founder of Trinity College, Oxford.

(BJC: My Note on the above: In 1521 Dodmer was elected as an alderman for Queenhithe, but before he could take office he was asked to translate from the Brewers to one of the Twelve Great Companies. Upon his election .er refused to translate upon his election. The other aldermen refused to allow him to take office until he had translated to a higher company. To emphasize their point they ordered him to be placed in the custody of one of the Sheriffs of London. He then translated to the Mercers on November 7, 1521 and allowed to take his office. His daughter did not marry Sir Thomas Pope. His widow, Margaret, married Sir.Thomas Pope)
