      MY MATERNAL ANCESTRY.

      John Harvey Hodges, a cousin of my mother, told me that my maternal great-great-grandfather Hodges came to the colonies of this country when there were but very few women here. At this time the ships from the old countries would bring young ladies to the colonies and accept tobacco from the young men over here in payment of passage of the girls on the ship. My great-great-grandmother, Mary Collins, came to this country this way, and her sweetheart paid her ship fare with tobacco. However, they knew each other in the old country. They settled in the old Dominion of Virginia, and when this same Mary Collins was 97 years old, she migrated to Tennessee and lived to the advanced age of 105 years.

      My maternal great-grandfather, Jesse Hodges, served in the Revolutionary war under General Green, and was in the battle of Guilford, North Carolina.

      My grandfather, Elijah Hodges, was born in Halifax county, Virginia, and went to Wilson county, Tennessee, while a young man, and there he married Hannah P. Hubbard, a daughter of Elder Clark Hubbard, and in the year 1824 they moved to Henderson county, Tennessee, settling near the village of Jacks Creek. Grandfather Hodges had seven brothers and three sisters. The brothers names were James, William; Elisha, Josiah, Jessie, Thomas and Harvey. The sisters, Tabitha married a Barton; Fannie married Hollis, and Polly, a Kitchens.

      All of these people settled in Henderson and McNairy counties, Tennessee. I very well remember my Grandmother Hodges and Aunt Tabitha Barton. My mother had three brothers, Harvey, Newton and William J. Hodges; two sisters, Elizabeth Crow and Susan, that married Wiley Masingill. Uncle Wm. Hodges was a Baptist preacher of excellent ability and served as pastor of Unity church more than forty years.
