Bob, I was particularly interested in this little snippet in your Unified Family Theory..from Pittsylvania records: "May 1773 On the information of James Mauran and Hugh Armstrong against William Terry, Augustine Choat, James Daniel, Gideon Rucker and John Hodges and for reasons appearing to the Court it is Ordered that the Sheriff forthwith take them into custody and them safely keep until they shall find sufficient securities for their good behavior. John and Isham Hodges acknowledge their debts of 10 pounds and 5 pounds respectively to the King to be levied on their respective goods and chattels, lands and tenements, with condition that the said John Hodges be of good behavior and keep the peace towards all of his said Majesty's liege people, and especially James Maurer and Hugh Armstrong, one whole year and a day. Pittsylvania Co. (Va.) Court Order Book 2, page 179." The Choates all went to Sumner/Robertson Co TN, and I have a record of Isham and Augustine's likely nephew Valentine Choate together in a deed I think there. Also, in the unlikely case you all don't know, the Sumner Co. wills of several Hodges are online: http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnsumner/willtran.htm <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnsumner/aaron.htm">HODGES</A>, Aaron, signed 19-Nov-1844, recorded December Term 1844 <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnsumner/asahodge.htm">HODGES</A>, Asa, signed 8-Oct-1823, recorded November Term 1823 <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnsumner/asawhodg.htm">HODGES</A>, Asa W., signed 3-Jul-1855, recorded October Term 1871 <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnsumner/isham.htm">HODGES</A>, Isham Jr., signed 1-Sep-1826, recorded November Term 1826 <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnsumner/hodgesi.htm">HODGES</A>, Isham Senior., signed 23-Dec-1829, recorded August Term 1839 <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnsumner/jemima.htm">HODGES</A>, Jemima B., signed 11-Nov-1833, recorded November Term 1833 <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnsumner/meredith.htm">HODGES</A>, Meredith, signed 5-Feb-1887, recorded December Term 1889 <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnsumner/wtrowthod.htm">HODGES</A>, Rowland T., signed 28-Oct-1839, recorded December Term 1839 Best Regards, Janet Hunter (not really a Hodges)

Thanks for the response. I really haven't gotten much feed back from what I put together. I am familiar with the Hodges of Sumner County, Tennessee. They are mostly the descendants of Isham Hodges' sons Isham, Aaron and Asa. My cousin Juanita Patton wrote a book on this part of the family a few years ago. Some other of my family went to Robertson County very early, and then on to Macoupin County, Illinois. I have not had time to dig into that area much, since it is collateral to most of my research, which is on the Hodges family of Franklin County, Virginia. It is interesting that the migration routsof these families are similar. A lot of Franklin County families also moved to Callaway County, Missouri.

Dear Bob, You mention your cousin, Juanita Patton--what relationship is she to you? Juanita and I are third cousins--our great-grandfathers, Creed Clay Hodges and Daniel Hodges were brothers. In her book she only mentioned four children for Creed Clay Hodges and was not aware of the last two, Thomas, born 1863 and Daniel Franklin, born 1865 in Illinois until I told her. I am trying to find out if Creed's family went somewhere else from Illinois where he is found on the 1870 census, but not after that.

Juanita is my 5th cousin. She is a descendant of Isham Hodges' son isham and I am a descendant of Isham Hodges' son Robert. I am also descended from Robert Hodges (d. 1832). His son Elijah married the other Robert's daughter Judith. This is the Franklin County, Virginia, family.
