Chuck; I am inclined to believe there was a Eli Hood Sr b. abt 1825 in MS. Then Eli Hood II b. abt 1878 in MS. Then an Eli Hood III b. in MS. Then your father John Earl b. 1950 in MS ? Eli Hood Sr was son of Joseph Jackson and Elizabeth McGinty. I have info on Joseph Jackson but none on Elizabeth. Jerry McGinty and I discussed the possibility that Elizabeth's maiden name was Hood. Do you have anything on Elizabeth? There was another Eli McGinty b. in Conway CO. AR in abt 1858 and d. in Comanche CO TX. That Eli has quite a list of descendants all over. Annemarie Montera has much info on that Eli McGinty. Annmarie list his full name as Eli Jackson McGinty. My line of McGintys are from AR, MS, GA, NC, PA, and Ireland. Jerry McGinty has more info on our McGinty family than anyone I know. I will be happy to share any info I have with anyone. I have several letters sent from Eli Hood Sr to my GrGf Thomas McGinty and a few sent from Eli Jackson McGinty to Thomas also. Eli Jackson McGinty was the grandson of Joseph Jackson and very possibly Elizabeth McGinty. Joseph Jackson was b. in NC or GA in abt 1772 the oldest son of Robert and Deborah Jackson McGinty. Robert b. abt 1746 in PA son of John and Rebecca McGinty. John b. in Donegal, Ireland and no info on Rebecca's lineage. If I may state my favorites of all the McGinty men they are: Rev Robert McGinty and Thomas McGinty b. 1844 (my GrGf). It stands to reason that I favor Rev Robert since I am a retired minister. Eli Hood Sr was a deeply devoted Christian man from what I read in his letters to half brother Thomas. God Bless from Arkansas Notify Administrator about this message?
