Kathy and all researchers: On all of the Census Records and even on all of the Land Records Leroy had the same name Leroy H. Hodges, and no we do not know what the "H" stands for. so far I have not even seen an "H" in any of his Children's names either.. I have seen the names of Harrison and Henry several times in the Hodges Family, But I just do not know about Leroy's middle name. Any HELP will be very much appreciated. Thanks for your email.
