Major Edward Hodge (c. 1782 – 17 June 1815) was a British Army officer killed in action the day before the 1815 Battle of Waterloo.

As a major in the 7th Hussars he was killed during an unsuccessful charge against French lancers in the narrow streets of Genappe on 17 June 1815.

[2] According to a contemporary account: "During the retreat through Genappe, the covering squadron of the Seventh Hussars, under the command of Major Hodge of the same regiment, particularly signalized itself.

Notwithstanding the repeated defeats which the enemy experienced, he returned to the attack with fresh troops, which still failed to make any attempt on these brave men—but some flanking squadrons having passed the bridge at Wais, to his left, and the Ford of the Dyle at Vieux-Genappe, to the right, he was obliged to retire a short distance, but not until his gallant party had sabered a considerable number of the lancers, among whom was the Colonel, who lost his arm.

"[3]There is a memorial tablet to Hodge and his fellow officer, Lieutenant Arthur Myers, in the Church of Saint Joseph, Waterloo.
