Patriarch & Matriarch 
John BRODREPP, Gentleman, d. Bef 1607, (probably), Berrow, Somerset, England (Father) 
Dorothy, d. Aft 1607 (Mother)Notes - Alias
When an extra grant of probate / administration was made for his father-in-law's will in 1627 Richard was described as "Richd Brodripp als Morgan". Assuming this was not an error (his wife was described as "Brodripp als Morgan" but this would be expected in her case), I do not know to what extent, if at all, Richard used the Morgan surname.
It certainly was through the marriage of Richard to Mary Morgan that Mapperton passed to the Brodrepp family. Mary was a co-heiress with her sister and Hutchins describes how a split was agreed on and what passed to Richard and Mary (augmented version of Hutchins History of Dorset (i.e. 3rd edition), 1863 v.2, p.159)
Brodrepp origins
Hutchins (same as above, v.2, p.159) also shows a Brodrepp pedigree, but does not show any of Richard's ancestry. It describes him as 'of Huntspill, nr Bridgwater' and describes how the name Brodrepp comes from Bawdrip in Somerset.
The marriage settlement for his marriage to Mary Morgan names his parents, and shows his widowed mother was then of Hunspill, probably the information Hutchins was using.

Family Mary MORGAN, b. Between 4 Jan 1583/84 and 7 Jan 1590/91, d. Between 20 Oct 1635 and 1656 (Age ~ 51 years) Married Between 1607 and 1608 - Hutchins shows son Christopher and 'Several other children' (vol. 2, p.159, Bordrepp pedigree)
Hutchins also shows the marriage as taking place in 5 Jac. I (vol. 2, p.158, Morgan pedigree), being the date of the marriage settlement.
Marriage Settlement 29 May 1607 - The Dorset History Centre catalogue shows that a marriage settlement for the marriage of Richard Brodrepp and Mary Morgan.
It shows that the agreement was made between Richard and his mother ('Dorothy Brodrepp of Huntstile [Huntspill], Somerset, widow, late wife of John Brodrepp, gentleman, deceased and Richard Brodrepp, gentleman their son and heir') and, I assume, Mary's uncle and step-father ('Sir Amyes Bampfield of Poultymer, Devon, knight and John Luttrell of Mapperton, esquire, trustees. Estates at Huntstile, Burnham etc Somerset'). Mary had an uncle and step-father with these names, but I have not yet seen the document and clearly there could be other possibilities, e.g. she may have had a step-brother John Luttrell.
