This is my first time to post to this list and am looking forward to the possibility of swapping some information with others. I am researching the family of my ggg. grandfather John Hodges. John was B.Aug.29, 1789 in South Carolina D.March 21,1872 in Calloway Co. Kentucky. The Bible record states that he was the son of "Isham Hodges and Mary his wife". I believe that about 1810 the family left S.C. and moved to East Tenn. before moving on to Western Ky. around the mid 1820s. John was the Sheriff of Calloway Co. in the late 1820s. The 1830 Ky census indicates that he had five children living in the household. One of the female children (Elizabeth) married Pleasant Ware Evans on Oct. 22, 1846 . They are both buried in the Evans Cem. in Calloway Co. as is John. There are a lot of ties between the Evans and Hodges families and I am having a difficult time sorting it all out. I believe that John may be the brother of Edmond Hodges B.Nov. 10,1797 in South Carolina. Some of Edmond's children were living next door to John or a few doors away in the 1830, 1840 and 1850 Calloway Co. Ky. census. Does this family sound familiar to anyone? I would love to trade Info.
