To Bill Hodges in Virginia. Thanks for the feedback-- I don't see any names that connect to my Hodge line but as you know the (s) seems to come and go like the wind. My Grandfather, Levi J. Hodge told my dad that his family was "from the Carolina's" as well. Unfortunately I have not been able to get back any further than the Shadrach in Western Ky. There is a strong possibility that he was one of 3 brothers named from the old Testiment, Shadrach, Meshach and Abendago, Any of those names tie to your line? I will keep your Phone and Address on file. Really appreciated the short biography of your living in the Mo. area. Take care, Bill Hodge St. Charles Mo.
