For John James Hodges ( bn 1871 AL- 1955 -Ms) Know that Al is a large state but if you knew where they were and married and lived I would try and locate him in the 1900 Census or 1910 which are both abailable it may be possible on the marraiage cit for John & and Hannah his parents will be listed along with hers. We haf this happen on my Nelson Wilmoth line and his wife is listed is giving the information, she palced on the cit (bn Vincent Ohio) mother unknown- Father unknown , but to beat all the census from 1870 to 1900 are having hin born in either Ny and states F(bn) ny M[bn]ny -So he may be hiding something , or that is the conclusion that we have came up with anyway- We cannot even locate any brothers or sister to this person-- Have you been able to find brothers and sisters of you JOHN JAMES HODGES----- this might prove a valuable Key... Just a few thought on what might help--and a possible other senerio, Chrusty Hodges Right now I have nothing to help either, but will keep my eyes open.
