Dear Listers and fellow researchers: Finally, someone has posted a message with my HODGES lines. Note to Lynda: You sent me a message a few months ago and, thru a glitch, I lost it. Am so happy to see you post to the list as I would like to collaborate with you on our mutual ancestry. Lynda wrote: You mentioned connections to Abel Hodges. My Hodges line begins with Abel Hodges ( I believe the one on the SC 1790 census) who married Charlotte Harrell Aug 1, 1811 in Jefferson Co. GA. There were also marriages in Jefferson Co at the same time for Elias Hodges and Sarah Gilliam, Geo. C. Hodges to Sarah Hayley, Richard Hodges to Eliz. Jordan and Jemimah Hodges to Laird Fleming. It would seem that they were all of the same family. The following four marriages in Jefferson County, GA are siblings. Elias Hodges m. Sarah Gilliam, 18 July 1811 George C. Hodges m. (1) Sarah C. Haley, 18 August, 1823 Richard Hodges m. 5 July, 1823, Elizabeth Jordan Jemima Hodges m. 7 November 1814, Laird Fleming.............. (my line) All four are children of Elias Hodges and his wife Elizabeth DuBose, sister of James DuBose who married Elizabeth Hodge(s) and resided in Baldwin County, GA. It is my belief that Elizabeth Hodge(s) is the sister of our Elias. Also, certain published materials erroneously identify the spouse of the said Elizabeth DuBose as James Hodges. James DuBose and his wife, Elizabeth Hodge(s) are enumerated in Baldwin County, GA in 1820 with one male child under the age of 10. James DuBose and his wife, Elizabeth Hodge(s) had a son named Lemuel DuBose who died young. Following the death of his wife Elizabeth Hodge(s), James DuBose removed to Conecuh County, AL, where he is enumerated in 1830, and married (2) Darkiss (nee Redd) and had two daughters children. In 1839 (can't recall month off top of my head), Laird B. Fleming wrote a letter to his daughter Jane Beatty Flemming Buchannan, who resided in Nachitotoches, LA, wherein he relates the marriage of Aunt Darkiss Dubose to Glidewell (Archibald who first married Elizabeth Jones, 6 October 1808, Greene County, GA), the birth of twins, who had subsequently died. Many of the early Conecuh County records were destroyed by fire, thus the loss of marriage records. James DuBose and Elizabeth DuBose are children of Peter Dubose II m. Sarah (nee unknown) and died in Washington County, GA. Several of his children removed to Alabama.

Wilson Buchannan, received a letter from a HODGES kinswoman from Washington County, GA who had been to Alabama for a visit and had returned home. The HODGES kinswoman mentions Jane's Uncle, Pulaski Hodges in the letter. We learn from letters written by Jane Beatty Fleming and her sister Mary Anna A. Fleming Amos that Pulaski P. Hodges was a younger brother of my ancestress, Jemima D. Hodges m. Laird Fleming.

Addition to Reference of Benjamin and John Hodges of early Washington County, Georgia: Howell; John, Jr.; Robert and Henry Hodges, Sr. of Pitt County, North Carolina were each son's of JOHN HODGES, SR.; and so of course, grand-sons's of Robert Hodges and Ann Branch. My mistake! John Harrell San Antonio, Texas

Reference Benjamin and John Hodges of early Washington County, Georgia: Both deed and estate records from Pitt County, North Carolina will prove that Benjamin and John Hodges were son's of the deceased Howell Hodges of Pitt County. Their removal to Washington County, Georgia is documented within these records. Howell Hodges is recognized as being a brother of John Hodges, Jr.; Robert Hodges and Henry Hodges, Sr.(all of Pitt County, N.C.) with each being a son of Robert Hodges and Ann Branch of Bertie County, North Carolina and Isle of Wight County, Virginia.

HILD TELEPHONES POLICE OF TRAGEDY IN NEW JERSEY Red Bank, N. J., June 5 - "Papa has just shot mamma," the childish treble of little Dorothy HODGES, over the telephone to police headquarters was the first intimation that a tragedy had occurred in the HODGES home. Officers found Mrs. Frank W. HODGES near death from a bullet wound in her head. HODGES was arrested and admitted having shot his wife. They quarreled over matters of property. At the Long Branch Hospital, it was stated to-day Mrs. HODGES has a slight chance of recovery.http://www.newspaperabstracts.com/ny/monroe/1916/JUN.html

You mentioned connections to Abel Hodges. My Hodges line begins with Abel Hodges ( I believe the one on the SC 1790 census) who married Charlotte Harrell Aug 1, 1811 in Jefferson Co. GA. There were also marriages in Jefferson Co at the same time for Elias Hodges and Sarah Gilliam, Geo. C. Hodges to Sarah Hayley, Richard Hodges to Eliz. Jordan and Jemimah Hodges to Laird Fleming. It would seem that they were all of the same family. Abel and Charlotte settled in Washington Co - are mentioned in census records (1820 - Baldwin Co., 1825 Tax Digest in Wash Co - 98th Dist), 1830, 1840, Newspaper Article shows - died of typhus fever at his residence Oct 3 1843 in his 70th year of age, . Their children were Augustus George Washington Hodges(1813-1879, spouse Eliza Ann Avant); Elizabeth Hodges(1815-) Abel H. Hodges(1821-) Barbara Hodges(1824-) Sarah R. Hodges(1827) Mary E.P. Hodges (1828) Lemuel A. Hodges(1830 - married to Elizabeth A. Johnson Achord) and Charlotte Hodges (1836) My line follows Augustus G.W. Hodges to Morgan Augustus(1847-1924, married Emma J. Reese) to son and my grandfather Clarence E. Hodges(1877-1956 - married Annie Bell Fowler) Abel Hodges and wife Charlotte along with other family members are buried in the Hodges Family Cemetery on the Old Indian Trail Road between Hwy 24 and the River Road which goes to Oconee. This Hodges family lived and farmed in this area of Washington County for many years. This is the same area that Robert Hodges received bounty land in Wash. Co. It seems to me that this Abel Hodges and Elias Hodges Jr. were most likely brothers - and may have been the sons of Elias Sr. Some believe that he was son of William Hodges (1760-1808) who was the son of Henry Hodges(1720-1802) who was the son of Richard Hodges & Sarah - who was the son of Robert Hodges and Ann Matthews) Would love to see some more definite proof.

Good going there, Jeff. If DRURY HODGES is a cousin to Elias, wonder if the other Hodges who are in Districe 96 and or Greenville in 1790 Federal Census, makes me wonder who Abel, and John do fit in this picture? I have an Isaac Hodges (b. 1790 in SC), whose wife is Rebecca McClain (b. GA 1805), whose parents I am still seeking. I thought it might be Abel; however, I do not "proof" of that either. My web site, www.hackley.com, shows some of my lineage. Do you have any thoughts or comments??? I have followed a Drury Hodges to Alabama then to Missouri. I think sometimes I find info on the son or the father and they get mixed up because these folks tend to name their sons after themselves and their brothers.

I think it is very likely that the Robert Hodges who died in Pulaski County, Ga in 1827 was the same Robert Hodges described in the the will of Elias Hodges: "Hodges, Elias, dec'd, of Granville Co., S.C., LWT dtd. 8/19/1779, proved 10/25/1800, leaves cousin Drury Hodges 16 cattle, etc; to Mary, wife exrs.; wife Mary, and bro.

If this was indeed the same Robert Hodges, South Carolina records indicate the Robert and Elias Hodges served together in the Granville County, SC militia under Capt. Garvin from 1779-1781. Georgia records indicate that this Robert Hodges was in Georgia as early as 1784, where he obtained bounty land in Washington County. He also apparently obtained bounty land in Liberty County in 1803. By 1817, he was a Captain commanding US troops in the First Indian Expedition. In 1818 he was Captain of the Twiggs County, Georgia militia, sheriff, and tax collector. Numerous Laurens County court documents clearly demonstrate numerous dealings between the Laurens County courts and Robert Hodges as Twiggs County, sheriff, and the court documents indicate that he moved to Pulaski County between 1824 and 1825. Apparently many of the early legal functions of the fledgling Pulaski County were provided by Laurens County. It has been pointed out by John Harrell and others that the Elias who moved to Granville County, SC, (and by default this Robert) must have been the son of Elias Hodges, Sr.of Pitt County, NC, son of Robert Hodges and Ann Branch. Pitt County records support this, with a Pitt County deed from John Daniel of Granville, SC deeding former property of Elias Sr. There is other evidence supporting this contention also, such as the 1801 Pitt County, NC deed of Benjamin Hodges and John Hodges of Washington County, Georgia to George Little.

Continuing my previous post, I haven't been able to find any further information on my (possible) ancestor John J. Hodges after his initial land purchase in Henry County, AL in 1858; I don't know if he died soon after, or moved on. 1850 Sumter County, Georgia census indicates John J. Hodges was born about 1801, Georgia; wife Charlott, born about 1803, South Carolina; son Edmond Hodges, born about 1828, Georgia, and Mary Faircloth, relationship not stated, born about 1828, Georgia. This John J. Hodges was appointed executor of Robert Hodges, who died in Pulaski County, Georgia, between Nov. 1826 and May 1827. It's uncertain whether John was the son or the grandson of Robert Hodges; legal records for Laurens County, Georgia, from which Pulaski County Georgia came, had a Joseph Hodges who deeded property to his son John, wife Nancy, and daughter Mavel in November 1817. No records of him appear after that, suggesting that he may have died at that time. This may have been the same Joseph Hodges who got headright land in Burke County, Ga. in 1791 and Effingham County in 1796. .

I would greatly appreciate help or advice from anyone on this list regarding my Hodges line. My earliest proven Hodges is Robert Hodges, born about 1823, Georgia, died 1899 in Henry (now Houston) County, Alabama. He married Sabrina Parker in Sumter County, Georgia in 1850. Our Parker research suggests that Sabrina was probably of the same North Carolina line as the Catherine Parker who married Benjamin Hodges, son of Elias Hodges of Pitt County, NC. Their children were: William E. Hodges born about 1851, Barney Green Hodges, b. 1852-died 1933 Brooks Co. Ga, Joel King Hodges born about 1854, Elizabeth L. Hodges born about 1857, Mary Ann Hodges born abt. 1859, Robert J. Hodges born about 1860, Alice Hodges born about 1862, and Lamb W. Hodges (born 1863, my ancestor) . I BELIEVE, but have been unable to prove, that Robert's father was John J. Hodges, born about 1801 in Georgia; wife Charlott born about 1803. John J. was living in Sumter County in 1850 at the time my Robert and Sabrina were married; and Robert and Sabrina moved to live near them in Henry County Alabama after John J. and Charlott moved to Henry County, AL and bought land in 1858. John J. was either a son, or grandson, of Robert Hodges who died in Pulaski County, Georgia about 1827; more about this Robert in a post to follow. Any help or advice appreciated. Jeff Armstrong

The two patents > below are on the one that is a tributary of the Northeast Cape Fear River > (itself a tributary of the main Cape Fear River) in modern Duplin County. > The other, probably the one mentioned here, flows into the Cape Fear itself > near Fayetteville. Not 20 but may 25 or 30 miles above the mouth of the > latter Rockfish is the area where Thomas and William Hodges are found -- > the Lower Little River and Upper Little River, which are two different > tributaries of the Cape Fear. So this may indicate that Thomas Hodges was > in the area as early as 1735 or 1740. These records show a pattern of > settlement in the area along the Cape Fear River from present-day St. Pauls > up into the watershed of the Little Rivers and over into the Deep River > watershed towards Chatham (then Orange) County]. > . > May 22, 1741 patent of Thomas Hodges 200 ac.
