A post on http://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.usa.states.oregon.counties.linn 24 July 2004 by Laura (lauraannnelson@hotmail.com) offers: "JAMES HODGEN, written by Nancy Prevost -
James Hodgen, eleventh child of Robert Hodgen and his second wife Sarah LaRue, was born 18 Jan. 1795 in Hardin County, Kentucky. Both Robert and the extensive LaRue family had moved to Frederick County, Virginia, from Pennsylvania before the Revolutionary War. They knew the Boone family well, and it is said that Daniel Boone's brother Squire explored and secured their first land grants in the wilderness of Kentucky. On 3 Feb. 1783, Robert Hodgen claimed 10,000 acres under Treasury Warrant #14790 on the north side of Green River. In 1784 he moved his family there by flatboat down the Ohio River, and settled on Nolin Creek, in what was at first Nelson County. He was granted permission to build a mill on the Nolin River in 1788, as well as to operate a store and tavern. Many notable guests were entertained at Hodgen's ordinary, including the famous Frenchman Michaux in Jan. 1796, and the exiled Prince Louis Phillippe in Apr. 1797. After Hardin County was formed, Robert was appointed one of the first justices of the county court. He was elected to the state legislature in 1795, and became sheriff of Hardin County in 1800. He was also a deacon of the Severns Valley Baptist Church for many years. Among the neighbors of the Hodgens were Thomas and Nancy Lincoln, who had a home three miles south of the mill, where their son Abe was born on 12 Feb. 1809. One of the LaRue wives served as midwife, and in his younger years Abe spent many hours playing with the Hodgen children. Robert Hodgen died on 5 Feb. 1810. On 7 Feb. 1818 his widow and son John petitioned the Hardin County Court at Elizabethtown to have the town of Hodgenville established on his plantation. The town became the county seat when LaRue County was later created. Sarah (LaRue) Hodgen died 27 June 1825.
"James Hodgen was just 15 when his father died. He inherited 200 acres of land in Bullitt County, Kentucky, from his father's estate, but it is doubtful he ever lived there. On 1 Dec. 1825 he married a distant cousin, Deidamia McDonald, the daughter of John and Mary (LaRue) McDonald. They had two children born in Hardin County, and about 1828 moved to Warren County, Illinois. Five more children were born there, and in March 1850, Deidamia died of consumption. James married again on 12 Dec. 1852 to Mrs. Malinda (Shirley) Boydston, a widow with four young children. Malinda was born 27 Nov. 1806 Kentucky, the daughter of Daniel E. and June (Allen) Shirley, and had married first as his second wife, John Gardner Boydston. Her step-daughter married James Hodgen's oldest son the following spring, and shortly afterward the families set off for Oregon.
"Partway across the plains, the company they were travelling with merged with the Washburn train for mutual protection. Although they had no serious trouble themselves, they heard that a party just two days ahead of them had been surrounded by a band of six hundred Indians. A young man in that company had shot an Indian woman while out hunting, and the company was compelled to turn him over to the Indians, who reportedly 'skinned him alive' before their very eyes. The Hodgens arrived at the Umatilla Agency on 20 Sep. 1853.
"On 12 June 1854, James and Malinda settled on a donation claim (Oregon City #2588) in Linn County, several of their children settling nearby. They resided near Springfield, Lane County, at the time of the 1860 and 1870 censuses, James listed as a ferryman on the former and a farmer on the latter. He died there in June 1871. Malinda survived him until 9 Nov. 1891, when she died at Colfax, Whitman County, Washington."

[27952] "The Blair Family of New England," compiled by Emily Wilder Leavett (Boston: David Clapp and Son, 1900), pp. 175-176, provides his information and states Richard came from Bury Pomeroy, Devonshire, England to Hartford, CT before 1639, and moved to Norwalk in 1650. His wife, Mercy _____, m. (2) John Steele of Farmington, CT. The information in this database for Richard, his wife and ancestry is from the LDS Church's Ancestral File and is not verified. Find A Grave Memorial 40079770 offers: "His name is on the Founders Monument as an original proprietor who received land "by the courtesie of the town". His homelot was on the east side of the road to the Cow Pasture (North Main Street) and was bounded on the north by the Cow Posture itself. He signed the agreement for planting Norwalk on June 19, 1650 and was a first planter at Norwalk. (Families of Early Hartford, Connecticut, p. 501). According to "Four American Ancestries: White, Griggs, Cowles..." by Peter H. Judd, p. 908: Richard Seymour was baptized Jan. 27, 1604/5 at Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire, England, son of Elizabeth Waller and Robert Seymour, and it was here that he married Mercy Ruscoe, daughter of Roger & Sarah Ruscoe of Sawbridgeworth, Eng. on April 18, 1631. He died between July 29, 1655 (date of will) and Oct. 10, 1655 (date of inventory) at Norwalk, Conn. Note: this conflicts with the death date given in "Families of Early Hartford" which was Nov. 1655.. In Norwalk his home lot was opposite the meeting house and Parade Ground in 1652 and was elected selectman of Norwalk on March 29, 1655. In his will written July 29, 1655, he was described as "very week & sike". After his death, Mercy married John Steele of Hartford on Nov. 20, 1655. He is not buried in the Ancient Burying Ground in Hartford. The place of his burial is unknown, but probably somewhere in Norwalk. This is a Cenotaph."
