Hello Melissa and Ken, It's always great to see a connection! Unfortunately, I'm not doing very well. Do you have any Shelton's mentioned in your Noe or Hodge lines? Grainger Co Land Deeds Pg. 116. 20Feb1799/27Apr1799. David Shelton to Jospeh Noe, $100, 100 ac. N side Holston River 2 miles below mouth German Creek joining lower end James Nicholas's tract, meanders adj river. W: Joseph Cobb and Moses Hodge. Grainger Co Marriages 19Aug1802 David Shelton to Nancy Rodgers, Joseph Noe, Bondsman Margaret Shelton Hi Melissa, Eureka!!!!!!!!! I do believe you've found the missing link. First, Talitha has to be the daughter of my G-G-G-mother Rachel that I've never been able to find. Second, It's nice to know that Rachel had a husband. I've wondered about that since she was born Hodge and all her children were named Hodge. Do you have any more on Robert Hodge? That is also my Father and Uncle's name, so this may be their namesake. Do you have more about any of these, including Talitha and Joseph Noe's children? The line as I had it follows: Francis Hodge, Sr. (1) b. ca1745 County Antrim, Ireland (see file FRANCIS.GEN) d. 1798 Sullivan Co., Tn. md. c1766 Ireland came to Pa. 1772, Tn. in 1778 sp Martha Sproat b. 1745 Ireland Ambrose Hodge b. ca 1767 in Ireland d. between 1830 & 1840 in Grainger Co., Tn. md. ca 1782 Elizabeth (?)
