I believe Alexander HOOD is my ancestor (through two connections) and would like to
know if anyone else has information on or is connected to these families. I believe my
gg-grandmother, Maranda C. (Hood) REAMS, may have been his dau. and I think my g-grandmother, Bettie Elizabeth (Hood) REAMS/REAMES, may have been his grandaughter through his son Sterling C. HOOD. Here is the information I have on him and his family:

Alexander HOOD b. abt 1784 in VA / was in Giles Co.TN by 1812 through 1820 at least / was in Fayette Co.TN by 1840 / d. 21 Oct 1854 in Fayette Co.TN (left will)

Married: Jane b. abt 1792 in VA

Children named in his will (1854):

1. L.D. HOOD b. abt 1810 md. Sena/Ciney CARTER Oct. 1840

2. William HOOD b. abt 1817 md. Harriett / children: Henry b.abt 1846, Wm b.abt
1848, Robert b.abt 1849/50

3. George W. HOOD b. abt 1818/19 md. Mary B. / children: Alexander M. b.abt 1842,
John W. b.abt 1844/45, Jane E. b.abt 1846, Sarah E. b.abt 1847, Rosina b.abt 1849/50,
Thomas F. b.abt 1857

4. Sterling C. HOOD b. abt 1823 d. abt 1859/60 in Fayette Co.TN md. Sarah Jane
VINSON/WILSON in Giles Co.TN in Dec. 1846 (I believe she remarried to Geo. S.A. SPILLER in
1862) / children: James b.abt 1847, Mary b.abt 1849, (I believe my g-grandmother, Bettie E. b. abt 1851/52 may have been his daughter)

5. Martha HOOD

6. Harriett HOOD b. abt 1829

7. John HOOD b. abt 1832 md. Augne/Angeline (RAY/WRAY ?)

8. Virginia HOOD b. abt 1834

9. Tennessee HOOD b. abt 1835

( I believe my gg-grandmother, Maranda C. HOOD b. abt 1815 (md. M.J. REAMS), was one of his older children that received land ealier and was not named in his will)
