There are letters written back to England by Benjamin - he found his brother William after about 6 years of searching. he was from Leeds. his brothers were William, John, Jack and Joesph. Another relation Benjamin lambert Hodgson went to Amercia.
Appears that Benjamin also had a brother deported to Australia called William
name was Benjamin Thomas Hodgson married Sarah Ann Say and had 5 children. He died in 1865, they had 8 children, including Rebecca, Martha, Benjamin, Joseph, Jane and Mary. I have identified all their direct descendent> I believe that Benjamin came from Leeds. All the details I have are on ancestry.
