I don't have any addresses at this time. What I gave you is about all I know. I had the Apr. 6 marriage date. I'm not sure what the Apr.2 date is. Do you know how to interpret the two dates? Is the earlier one the date of the marriage bonds? I do have quite a bit on the Roddys. A Roddy descendent has them on an internet site. Jesse's father was a James Roddy(e), b 1742 in NC, and his father was also James Roddye, b. 1710 in Ireland. If you are interested in any other information I may have, please let me know. I don't yet know the history of all the various counties in this area. I don't know the historical connection of Roane & Rhea Counties and the town of Rhea. If I figure that out I may get a better understanding of who was where when. If you have any other information on the Mahaffeys or Jesse Roddy's mother, who was Catherine Jane Chase, I'd be interested. Thanks again for your help. Marsha
