Thanks Bobby and Faye, Miles Edmond has the right birth date, but my Miles didn't die in 1830. We'll find him eventually. I apologize to everyone on the list who has been waiting for the remaining Hodge of Texas information. I've been out of touch for the past week for a really great and FUN reason. I'm a singer, and was just given the opportunity to sing three numbers at a Pops Concert coming up in April, so I've been doing a lot of rehearsals. PLUS, I went with a friend (to provide support for her) who wanted to audition for a play at a local community theater. I was asked to read for a part while waiting, so I did - just for the fun of it. WELL, I GOT THE LEAD! I've been called a drama queen a few hundred times in my life, but I've never done any acting, so I was FLOORED! The play is coming up the last three weekends in May - more rehearsals. I will continue my genealogy and keeping up with my e-mail (and getting the information I promised to all of you about the Hodges), but for the next two months, I'll only be able to do it on a weekly basis. I'll get back into full swing by mid-June. Thanks to all of you for your help.
