Thanks, gentlemen. I was just curious. You never know when people researching the same lines will pop up! LOL
The Hogsed lines (aka Hoxit, Hogshead, etc) are/were numerous in Western North Carolina. It's a fascinating area to research, especially during the WBTS. Interesting sidenote: the census enumerator in 1860 Cherokee Co, NC was either far-sighted or nosy enough to include counties, as well as states, of birth. Big help to us searching for them 148 years later!
Thanks again for taking the time to answer.
Regards,
Penny
