General Notes: Husband - Isaac Hodgens
He was born in County Armagh, Ireland, where he received an excellent educational training under the preceptorship of Alexander Campbell, who afterward came to America, and established, at Bethany, West Virginia, an academy, later known as Bethany College, where Isaac Hodgens (who had immigrated with his parents) completed his education. During their voyage across the Atlantic, the vessel on which were the Hodgens family was boarded by a British man-of-war (probably for the purpose of impressing some of the able-bodied sailors of the merchant ship into the regular navy, as was the custom in those days in time of war-for Great Britain was then at war with France), and by some means Isaac became separated from the rest of the family, and was carried off by the warship. Later, however, he was placed on board the American ship "Martha," and ultimately restored to his parents. In Buffalo township he passed the rest of his active life, engaged in agricultural pursuits. He was a zealous Democrat, and a personal friend of Andrew Jackson. He served as associate judge of the courts, also as county commissioner, and in the militia of his early times he took an active and conspicuous part, rising to the rank of major-general.
He and his wife had eleven children, the larger number of whom grew to maturity.
