In reply to:
James HODGE, 1773 Fairfield Dist., SC

First - Everyone seems to have assumed that the Samuel and Mary mentioned in James Hodge's will are his parents - however a transcript obtained from the South Carolina Archives has Moon written in for Samuel and Mary. This is probably a transcription error and should be Moor not Moon, since there is also reference to a grandson John Moore
Second -
Because James Hodge mentions a bequest of $5 to Hugh and Margaret Perry in his will recorded July 17, 1827 in Fairfield, SC, and Hugh Perry (1765-1840) mentions his daughter Jane Hodge in his will dated June 21, 1840 - everyone has assumed that James Hodge is the husband of Jane Perry.
However, probate papers of Hugh Perry State that Andrew Hodge, husband of Jane Hodge, was paid Jane’s share of her father Hugh’s estate.
Andrew Hodge (1801 - abt 1855) is the son of James Hodge.
