Has anyone tried to trace the following names and identify the families of the following? James Hodges, 10 March 1756, Lunenberg Co., Va.. ( This County later became Halifax) 182 Acres on both forks of Bradley's Creek. Patents 32, Page 692. Halifax Co. Pleas Book 2, Part 2, Page 360. March Court 1759. Joseph Collings (Collins ?) is appointed Surveyor of the road leading from Booker's Ferry on Staunton River to this Courthouse, beginning at Bannister extending to the Mill Stone Road, and it is ordered that he with William Pearman, William Beach, William Wilson Holmes, Thomas Hornsby, Frederick Hicks, JAMES HODGES, William Murphy, Edmund Hodges, AMBROSE HODGES (my ancestor), Welcom Hodges, William Lavour, John Rounden, and Peter Tribble do forthwith clear and keep the same in repair according to Law. Inventory of goods for estate of Edward Dean, appraised by James Hodges, Welcome Wm. Hodges, and Joseph Collins, 20th day of August 1761. (Halifax Co., Va.) Exerpted from Milner Echols History of the family of James and Jesse Hodges: About 1982, Laurent Hodges of Ames, Iowa was in possession of a typescript version. The original was apparently brought to Texas after the War Between the States, probably by the grandson of the author. The history was written by Milner Echols June 14, 1850. [[Old English John Echols had three daughters which I could have inserted had I known enough about them to give any satisfactory account of them. I only know they married outlandish men, one an Englishman named Nicholas Gilington. Of their family I know nothing. The second daughter married an Irishman named Murphy. ** We see in other records that William Murphy married a Martha Hodge. Could she have been a widow of another Hodge and born Echols?** I know nothing of their family only they had two sons, Joseph and William, that was called the greatest Baptist preachers that ever was known in Virginia of their day. Old English John Echols third daughter married a Scotchman named Marshbank. I know nothing of their family only the family of Deens in DeKalb and Floyd County sprang from that family. ]] [[ Old Abraham had one daughter married James Hodges, a very worthy man, his family moved to Tennessee. He had one son named Jesse and he [Jesse] had a son named James who was a commanding officer in Tennessee and got drowned in the Cumberland River near Cairo. Jesse had one daughter named Tabitha - that is all I know of the family.]] **Tabitha Hodges married Thomas Barton.** The Bartons mentioned are of one family. Rev.

In the Hodges research, there has always been the problem that there were at least three men named John Hodges in SC during Revolutionary times.

I was wondering if any of you knew who Jesse B. (the son of Jesse and Elizabeth) wife and children were. I have Hodges family that lived in TN and haven't been able to find a connection to any other Hodges family. There is a Jesse Blaine Hodges in my line at a later date that I though may have gotten his name from your Jesse B. Since names were pass down through several generations. Were any of your Hodges from East Tenn? Please let me know if you find anything. Thanks, April from East Tenn. [email protected]

I hope this does not throw you off. There were Echols, Nichols, along with Capehart's in Bertie County NC during and after the Am-Rev. They belonged to the Capehart Church.

I am in the Hodges line with a John Hodges as my ancestor.. I was reading some of the info you sent me here, and I couldn't help but to be taken by all the things I found similar.. But I know the John you speak of isn't the same John I've studied... fact;;; John Hodges settled near Abbeville SC,,, fact;;; he was in the revolution,,, fact;;; the log cabin where he lived is still standing,,,,, fact;;; the name of the SC plantation is WILDWOOD.... all of this about knocked me out of my seat... I don't know where you got this info, but I'd like for you to check on the name George Washington Hodges ... he was one of the many children of John Hodges... The small town of Hodges SC was named for him.... with all the similarities between your John and my John, I can't help but believe there is a connection somewhere... Thanks for any help you can give..

Although early records of the family have been lost, it is evident >that they settled in the Tidewater region almost from the beginning. The >history of the Hodges family and the history of Portsmouth are closely >intertwined. >The oldest available document is the will of William Hodges, which was >written March 19, 1754. The will indicates that William Hodges was a >successful planter who owned slaves. His will provides the only valid >information on his life. Of his three sons and four daughters, the only one >to be mentioned in another family document is Captain John Hodges. He >married Lydia Thomas July 4, 2760 and died May 12, 1802. One of his sons, >William Hodges, married Sally Deans, and one of their children was John >Hodges, the first member of the family of whom any considerable record >remains. >John Hodges was born December 31, 1786 and died July 31, 1855. During the >War of 1812 he rose to the rank of Brigadier General of the 9th Brigade of >the Virginia Militia. He served as a member of the Virginia House of >Delegates in 1826, and was a supervisor in Norfolk County for the election >of presidential and vice-presidential electors in 1832. In addition to >these activities, he served an undetermined number of years as Postmaster >of Portsmouth until his resignation in 1840. >General Hodges bought a tract of land on the Western Branch of the >Elizabeth River, which he called Wildwood. From his farm, he operated a >ferry, from which the Hodges Ferry section of Portsmouth derives its name. >He also bought land in downtown Portsmouth upon which he built a house that >still stands on North Street. Hodges married three times. His first two >wives, Ann Carney (d. 1814) and Louise Harrison (d. 1826) both died, Ann >childless, and Louise leaving two sons, John H. Hodges and William Henry >Harrison Hodges. General Hodges' third marriage, to Jane Adelaide Gregory >in 1828, resulted in three children, James Gregory Hodges, Emma Adelaide >Hodges, and Margaret Jane Hodges. >No references remain concerning the life of the younger John Hodges, except >that he married Eliza F. C. Benn in 1842, a marriage that produced three >children. It is rather strange that there is no official notice of his >death April 27, 1863, since a greater number of letters and other materials >survive from that period. The other two sons, William Henry Harrison and >James Gregory, are more fully documented. Their lives speak of both the >gallantry and the tragedy of the Civil War. >James Gregory Hodges (1828-1863) married Sarah A. F. Wilson August 11, >1852, and had two sons, William Wilson Hodges and John Nelson Hodges. At >the age of twenty-nine he served as Portsmouth's first mayor when the city >was incorporated in 1858. The outbreak of the Civil War saw him active in >the first Tidewater skirmish, which resulted in the burning of the Gosport >Navy Yard in Portsmouth. Placed in command of the 14th Virginia Regiment, >James Gregory Hodges found himself at Gettysburg in July, 1863. During the >famed "Pickett's Charge," in which his regiment participated, he was killed >when a cannon exploded at his side. The remains of his body were never >found. >William Henry Harrison Hodges (1824-1880) married Mary A. Griswold May 13, >1856, and had two daughters, Mary Louisa Hodges and Susan Green Hodges. He >built a house on Middle Street across from his father's, still standing >today. William survived the war, but he did not escape the tragedy of it. >As cashier of the Merchants and Mechanics Savings Bank of Portsmouth, he >was supposed to comply with the orders of the Union occupation troops under >Major General Benjamin Butler. William was only one of five men in the town >who refused to take the loyalty oath to the North, and when he did not obey >the order to turn over the bank's money to union control, he was arrested >and imprisoned from February, 1864 until after the war's end. Through his >ordeal he remained steadfast in his conviction that obedience to that order >would not have been consistent with honor. >William had no sons, James' two sons died childless, and from the lack of >evidence it appears that the one son of John Hodges also left no >descendants. Therefore, at the death of William Wilson Hodges in 1893, the >Hodges' line died out. But the memory of their importance to the Portsmouth >community survives. >SCOPE AND CONTENTS >The Hodges Family Papers include documentation of generations from 1754 to >1981. Although the Hodges line of male descendants ended in 1893, marriages >of female descendants have brought the Ainsworth, Armistead, Lindsay, Hook, >and Korty families into direct line with the Hodges. Consequently, some of >the correspondence, newspaper clippings, genealogical information, >scrapbook materials, and photographs have reference to these other >families. Most of the collection, however, centers on General John Hodges >and two of his sons, Colonel James Gregory Hodges and William Henry >Harrison Hodges. >The papers are divided into twelve series: correspondence, legal documents, >financial records, newspaper clippings, military papers, publications, >genealogical notes, certificates, scrapbook, cards, photographs, and >miscellany. >Series I - Correspondence >In the correspondence series, separate folders are maintained for General >John Hodges, Colonel James Gregory Hodges, William Henry Harrison Hodges (2 >folders), and Captain Andrew Ainsworth. Captain Ainsworth was an Englishman >who joined the Union forces and served as captain of the port at Hampton >Roads during the Union occupation. After the Civil War he remained in the >area and one of his descendants married into the Hodges line. There is also >one folder of miscellaneous correspondence. Especially interesting is a >letter from James Gregory Hodges to his father, requesting marital advice. >Also, William Henry Harrison Hodges' letters to his wife, Mary Abigail >Griswold Hodges, and his requests for release from imprisonment provide a >direct insight into the trials of war for one man. One of the letters to >Captain Ainsworth from O. E. Babcock is addressed "Executive Mansion.' >Babcock served in the Grant administration. >Series II - Legal Documents >Included in this series are deeds of sale showing how General John Hodges >acquired Wildwood and other property. Also included are wills, statements, >a legal claim, and an 1809 land survey of the Western Branch land that >Hodges eventually acquired. Items of special interest include a bill of >sale for slaves and the 1754 will of William Hodges. >Series III - Financial Records >This is a small series consisting of receipts, a bill and a promissory >note. It should be noted that the Mary Louisa Hodges mentioned on two >receipts could not be the daughter of William Henry Harrison Hodges, since >the dates are before her birth. How Mary Louisa Hodges was related to the >family is unknown. >Series IV - Newspaper Clippings >The newspaper clippings include obituaries, weddings, anniversaries, and >varied articles primarily concerning Portsmouth and the Civil War. The >articles most pertinent to the Hodges family are: an account of the life of >James Greqory Hodges by his brother-in-law, Judge James F. Crocker, a >recounting of Portsmouth's incorporation during its 75th anniversary, and a >1979 article about the discovered gravestones of the Hodges family. Also in >this series is a copy of the Union occupation force's newspaper, New Regime >5/30/1864, and maps of the Union campaign against Richmond from the >Philadelphia Enquirer 6/28/1862 and the New York Herald 7/16/1862. >Series V - Military Papers >This series consists of a few military communications. The most important >items are a notice for William Henry Harrison Hodges to report to the >Provost Marshall's Office, and his official prison sentence. >Series VI - Publications >Five separate books comprise this series. The Outline of Scripture >Geography and The Scripture Atlas are the oldest publications, both dated >1828. The Communicants' Manual and the prayer book were both possessions of >Sarah A. F. Wilson Hodges, the wife of James Gregory. The Holy Trinity >Church describes the activities of the church that each generation of the >Hodges family regularly attended. >Series VII - Genealogical Notes >This series is a collection of various notes written by family members that >give insight into family history. In some instances, personal information >is revealed that cannot be found in any of the other documents. >Series VIII - Certificates >Three certificates comprise this series: a marriage certificate for William >Henry Harrison Hodges and Mary Abigail Griswold, and the baptismal >certificates for their daughters. >Series IX - Scrapbook >The original scrapbook remains in the hands of the donor, but a photocopy >of each page is present in this series. Most of the photocopied items are >newspaper obituaries and articles. The obituaries in this series provide >details on less prominent members of the Hodges family, as well as a solid >core of information on the Ainsworths, Armisteads, and Lindsays. >Series X - Cards >The majority of the items in this series are undated and not addressed, >although Mary A. Griswold and Susan Hodges are noted. Valentines dominate >the series. >Series XI - Photographs >Most of the items in this series are photographic prints of earlier prints, >paintings, and daguerreotypes. Included are pictures of James Gregory >Hodges, William Henry Harrison Hodges, Mary Abigail Griswold Hodges, Mary >Louisa Hodges Armistead, and many other members of the >Hodges-Ainsworth-Armistead-Lindsay line up to the year 1981. >Turn-of-the-century photographs of Portsmouth's Confederate Monument and >Trinity Episcopal Church and a later photograph of the house William Henry >Harrison Hodges built are also included.
