Joshua Hodges, Sr. - primary proof of his children
I am not a descendant of any Hodges line but many Hodges of Bulloch County, GA married into my Olliff and Jackson lines.I was attempting to prove that Jarvis Jackson and his wife Catherine Hodges had no children - every one thought this to be the case - but I wanted solid primary documentation.I recently looked at the distribution of the Estate of Catherine (Hodges) Jackson and her estate was distributed to her siblings which provide primary proof for the children of Joshua Hodges.This distribution was recorded on November 13, 1843 in Bulloch County, GA and shows the following siblings of Catherine (Hodges) Jackson:Nancy Brannen, C. J. Fletcher, Moses L. Hodges, Ashbury Hodges, Rhoda Hodges, Joseph C. Hodges, James C. Hodges, Judge N. Hodges (this would be Nathaniel Hodges who was the administrator of Catherine's estate), Hardy Hodges and heirs of Benjamin Hodges (Sarah Hodges and Jane Hodges).This may be already proven by other documents - but since this might be hard to uncover, I thought I would post this information on this forum.
I have at least a dozen Hodges that intermarried into my Olliff and Jackson lines.Check my web site for these intermarriages (http://www.rcasey.net/olliff/ollstart.htm).I would appreciate receiving how these many Hodges lines tie together and would like to get additional descendants and intermarriages.
