Notes:

Information from Adrienne Solomon :
William Harrison Williams left Watauga County, NC and went to Tacoma, WA before 1910. He changed his name to William Hodges and married a woman named Sarah. On his death certificate, Sarah lists her maiden name as Sarah Hodges. Nothing else is known about her. In 1914, William and Sarah had a daughter named Beatrice Emily Hodges. She died in 1917. They also had a son, William Anderson Hodges, who died in 1980. William H., Beatrice Emily, and William Anderson are all buried in unmarked graves in Ross Bay Cemetery in Victoria, British Columbia. Sarah is no where to be found. As the story goes, Williams's 1st wife's uncle, Ford Harbin, tracked him down in Victoria, B.C. in about 1917. He was going to kill him but did not after finding out they had lost a child. So he struck a deal with him instead. If William promised to send his first set of kids $10 each per month for child support, Ford promised not to reveal where he was living or his situation. In a letter dated 1918 from Uncle Ford Harbin to one of William's daughters, Mattie, in NC, Ford asked her not to think hard of him. So long as William keeps his end of the bargain, he will keep his.

A Canadian relative on the Solomon side of the family sent photos of the unmarked graves in Victoria. Very strange. No tombstones at all. Not even for Wm. Anderson Hodges who died in 1980!

William married Nora Ann Harbin on 8 Apr 1894 in , Watauga County, North Carolina, North Carolina. Nora (daughter of William Bailey "Bill" Harbin and Martha A. Rickert) was born on 8 Nov 1871 in North Carolina, , , ; died on 15 Sep 1946 in Johnson County, , , Tennessee. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
