Hi.  My ineptitude know no bounds!    Anyway.  I have 3 CHERRYs who m. HODGES men during 1700s in  Carolina.  I'm hoping someone can tie them together.

1.    Rebecca CHERRY b. NC,  m.  bet 1743-1747 Marlboro Co., SC John B. HODGES b. 1720 Isle of Wight Co., VA

            Rebecca reportedly was a sister to Mary and their parents  were Lemuel Moye CHERRY & Frances BALLENTINE

            Rebecca & John B. had 7 children, one of whom provided a husband for 

2.    Mary CHERRY (somebody had a sense of humor) m.  Henry  HODGES

            This couple had one child who's name is known,  William HODGES  b. 1755  Marlboro Co., SC; d. 1832 same place

3.    Sarah  CHERRY  m.  29 Dec 1796  Capt. George HODGES  b. 1769

            Sarah's parents were George  CHERRY & ??? MAGEE

            Capt. George's parents were John HODGES & Anna MAGEE.  How were MAGEEs related??? 

I kinda doubt Mary m. her own nephew - so are there 2 Marys, and the sister and daughter-in-law are not one and the same???

Lemuel Moye CHERRY & Frances BALLENTINE had the following children (which I garnered from Ged.com sites, etc.)            

Rebecca, Mary, Courtney, William, John, plus 7 more sons and 2 more daughters all of whom have names unknown to me.

Lemuel Moye had 2 brothers - Aaron & Lemuel Samuel

Aaron CHERRY m. Mary Pierce and they had the following children
        Sarah, Rebecca, Frances, Theophilus, Erastus, Robert, George, Solomon, & Thomas

        Was this the Sarah who m. Capt. George?  Was this the George who m. ??? MAGEE???

Lemuel Samuel CHERRY m. 1736 in VA  Mary Courtney
        Did this couple have children fitting into the above equation?

Can anyone  help me out, here??  Thanks.  Ken Robinson in Riverside, CA  [email protected]
