I have been researching these lines for more than 30 years, I started in the fall of 1971 and have more than 55,000 individuals on various lines in my database. Unfortunately, I do not have your great-great aunt Alabama PARSLEY. I do have one William H. HODGE b. March 22, 1865 probably in Laurel county KY d. October 17, 1898 in Laurel county KY and is buried in McHargue Cemetery in Laurel county KY. He is also shown as William S. HODGE.
