Philip H. Dod
Erickson:
DOD, Phi1ip H, b. 1810. arr. 19.10.1829 per Atwick with servants John & Sarah Limer. Granted 6520 acres, selecting 2000 in Swan district in 1829 & 4520 in Plantagenet in 1831. He was a relative of the London merchant Henry Dod & Co. who had extensive business with the first settlers. Philip Dod opened a store at Frem. 1830. He sought permission to leave the colony 17.1.1832 per Cornwallis.
Philip Dod was granted town lots 26, 38, 44, 61, and sublot E.
Lots 26 and 38 are adjoining, between Cliff and Mouat Streets on what is now Croke Street, and just across the road from the former Water Police station. Lots 44 and 61 are also adjoining, on High Street between Mouat and Henry Streets, so if Dod had a shop it's likely that it was here.
