UPDATE<\/strong>: June 10, 2001 — Since this cemetery was surveyed in March 2001, J.R. Hodges and a group have cleared off the overgrowth and built a fence to enclose it. Another row of field stones has been found and two unmarked graves have been identified. The two are: Susan Hodges Fine, Mar. 10, 1844-Sept. 19, 1911 and George Fine, Nov. 26, 1843-Apr. 7, 1918.<\/span><\/p>\n

p.57 \u2013 Anson L. Hodges<\/strong> was born April 10, 1811, and died October 23, 1844. He met a very untimely death. Leaving the house the morning of Oct. 23, 1844, accompanied by his faithful dog, he announced he was off on one of his favorite sports, a short coon hunt. It was known his intentions were to cross the Watauga and do his hunting on the high Boring cliff on the south bank of the river, the property of Dr. Issac Boring<\/strong>. His failure to return at the usual time caused the family some concern and after a reasonable waiting period it was finally decided to start a search. He and his little dog were soon found pinned beneath a tree, which he had cut himself, both dead. His wife, Harriet Gray<\/strong> was born March 4, 1812 and died Mar. 9, 1891. Harriet was a daughter of James Gray<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n
