English: Arms of Hody (alias Huddy, Huddie, etc) of Pilsdon in Dorset: Argent, a fess per fess indented vert and sable between two cotises counterchanged of the fess a bordure engrailed (or?). As visible impaled by Carew on monumental brass in Haccombe Church, Devon, of Mary Hoddy (d.1589), a daughter of William Hoddy of Pilsdon in Dorset (2nd son of Sir William Hody (born before 1441, died 1524) of Pilsdon, Attorney General of England and Chief Baron of the Exchequer under King Henry VII) and wife of Thomas Carew (1518-1586) of Haccombe. The bordure engrailed (tincture unknown), as shown on the brass, of which the lower half is missing, appears to be a difference of the arms of the senior branch of the family, Hody of Stowell, Somerset: Argent, a fess per fess indented vert and sable between two cotises counterchanged of the fess (Source: Burke's General Armory, 1884, p.515[1] Also p.496, Hody). The Haccombe brass shows a mullet in chief, the difference of a 3rd son, although most sources state William Hody, father of Mary Hody, to have been a 2nd son.

Note: Bordure engrailed should be sable, per: Somerset Record Society, Vol. 15, Particular Description of the County of Somerset, 1900, drawn by T. Gerard, 1633:

"Stowell, a small parish is the third place my digression brings us unto, whose ancient Lords seeing I have mentioned elsewhere, I will leave only lett you know that in succeeding ages Elizabeth daughter and heire of John Jew (an ill-favoured name you will confesse) by Coles heire of Nethway brought it unto her husband Sir John Hody sonne of Sir Alexander Hody an ancient family I assure you and of great accompt, especially after Sir William Hody second sone of Sir John was Lord Cheife Baron of the Exchequer. Theis Huddies for now they so are written, remaine unto this daie, and lived at this place until of late years it was aliened unto a brother of Sir John Duckham of Temple-combe the next place wee shall come to, after you have viewed over their Armes. Huddy: Arg. a fesse party per fesse indented sab. and vert betw. 3 bareuletts sab. (No doubt a clerical error for 4 or 2 probably cotises.) Huddy: The same within a border ingrailed sab."
