COLONIAL & REVOLUTIONARY FAMILIES OF NORTH CAROLINA
(1) John Hodges had a land patent in Edgecombe Precinct of
Edgecombe Co., NC June 8, 1739 (Colonial Records of NC by
Saunders, page 350). He "proved his rights" in Edgecombe County
on May 5, 1742 (Col. Rec. Vol. IV, pages 617,618) Edgecombe
Precinct became a county on April 4, 1741 (Vol. 2 No. 3, NC
Register by Hathaway. Page 412).
from " Colony of NC 1735-1764 , Abstracts of Land Patents , Vol.
I " , by Margaret M. Hofmann : Patent Bk. 5 -- 3362 pg. 336
JOHN HODGES 20 Nov. 1739 300 acres in Edgecombe County on
the N. side of Tarr River , joining the Pocoson and the river
Pocosin.
(Wm Standard & Abel Waddell were m. Edgecombe Co. NC. abt 1760.)
John Hodges bought land in Beaufort Co., NC in June 1745 from
his brother Elias (270 acres for 400 lbs. See Book 2, page 441
Register of Deeds' Office Beaufort County.)
One John Hodges gave land to John Jr. in Beaufort Co., NC in
1752 and 1756. John Hodges was, no doubt, ancestor of same of
the Hodges in Pitt County and possibly also of the same in
Edgecombe and Bertie, as he had owned land in all three
counties. The author knows nothing more about this John Hodges.
