Odard or Hudard came into England with William the Conqueror and wasseated at Dutton, a greater part of which Hugh Lupus, 1st Earl ofChester, gave to him. This Hudard's sword has been preserved and passedover from heirs as an heirloom by name of Hodard's sword. The town ofDutton, Cheshire Co., Eng., is mentioned three times in the DomesdayBook, written Duntyne, as held by three persons, of whom one Odard orHudard seemed to own the greatest part, and the other parts at last cameto the posterity of Odard. Dun in the Saxon language signifies hill, forwhich the English now use down, so that Duntune signified a town on ahill, now Dutton. From this town did the ancient family of Dutton assumetheir surname and the posterity of Odard have continued to the present.
