Henrietta Mildred Hodgson (6 January 1805 – 19 November 1891) was an English lady with both royal and presidential genealogical connections.
Through her Virginia ancestry, Queen Elizabeth II and her descendants are related to George Washington, with Augustine Warner and his wife Mildred Reade having been their common ancestors.
Born on 6 January 1805, Henrietta Mildred was the daughter of the Very Rev. Robert Hodgson (1776–1844), Dean of Carlisle from 1820 until his death; and of Mary Tucker (born in 1778), a daughter of Colonel Martin Tucker. Her parents had married in 1804. Her grandfather was another Robert Hodgson (born in 1740), of Congleton in Cheshire.
On 18 March 1824 at St George's, Hanover Square, Westminster, she married Oswald Smith (7 July 1794 – 18 June 1863) of St Marylebone and Blendon Hall in Kent. Oswald was the second son of George Smith.
They had seven children:
In 1853 their daughter Frances married Claude Bowes-Lyon, later Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne. She was thus a great-grandmother of Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, and great-great-grandmother of Queen Elizabeth II.
