I must protest the use of "First american generation of HODGES -1666" A statment that is misleading to say the least ! I would not even want to say the same thing about William Hodges abt.1627to & wife Mary AndrewsApril 2,1654 who died in Taunton Mass. and who it has been proven was in America before Aug. 1643. The had three children John b.1650,Henry b.1652 & Anne. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gerry Hackley" <gerry@hackley.com> To: <HODGES-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, April 30, 2003 2:09 AM Subject: [HODGES-L] Roger Hodges (? - 1708 VA) > "First american generation of HODGES - 1666 > > 1.
