From a net site I found last night:
Calhoun Co., GA, 1860 census-
 113     Hodge, Benjamin R. age 45, m, Farmer, b. SC
 Milbry, age 45, f, b SC
 Adaline M., age 18, b SC
 Benj. M., age 7, b GA
 Martha E., age 3, b GA
 Malery, Henry, age 18, m,  overseer, b. Georgia

I show his name as Benjamin Rufus HODGE.  There was also another
Benjamin R. but I think his name was Benjamin Rhodus HODGE.  Both these
people were in Sumter Co., SC.

The following  information came off the internet from Ken Hodge(
[email protected]). I had saved this from a posting a good while back:
Says John Hodge and Frances Davis are parents.
Just before 1850 Benjamin and a large group of pioneers left Sumter, SC
and moved to Early County, GA, which soon became Calhoun Co.  Some of
the families that moved to Georgia together were: Dickey, Davis,
Plowden, McFadden, Hayes, Strickland, Lawrence, Thigpen, McClary,
Boynton.
Good hunting.                                                    Susan
