The following is quoted from of a 1939 letter written by Mrs. George L. Corbin, 3 Oak Lane, Hampton Gardens, and Richmond, Virginia to Mildred Keeling, Keeling, Virginia, online at this Davis family page of Pittsylvania County:
"I told you that Mary McGehee married Ayres Hodnett and came to Halifax to live. They had six children: Ayres, Jim, Sallie, John, Will and Lucy. [The author left out Benjamin]. One of them, Lucy, married Joseph Davis; I found a copy of the marriage certificate of Joseph Davis and Lucy Hodnett which was dated March 19, 1793.... The names of their children were as follows: Garret, Joe, Ben, Tom, Jack, William, Polly, James and Elizabeth.
