Created by: scrap Record added: Mar 06, 2005 Find A Grave Memorial# 10568395 Solomon Hood, born about 1842, lists his parents as James and Margaret on his marriage license. I find only one Solomon Hood each year 1850-1870 in VA. In 1850, a 12 year old Solomon is found with Julius in Jackson county. He could be the son of Julius or he could be his nephew. I suspect the ages on the 1850 census are not correct. I am adding Solomon as the son of Julius, because I cannot find James and Margaret. If they are found at a later day, I will move him into their family. I do feel that James was probably a child of John and Jane and therefore, brother of Julius. 1850 Barbour, VA Julius Hood 44 miller VA Rebecca 38 VA Davis C 16 VA John F 14 VA Solomon 12 VA - the only Sol*Hood in VA 1860 Harrison, VA Joseph M Middleton 27 VA Mary J 23 OH Mary M 1 VA Solomon Hood 20 VA - the only Sol*Hood in VA 1870 Mill Creek, Jackson, WV Hood, Davis K 35 miller 6000-500 VA Rebecca M 30 VA Lillia B 12 VA John C 10 VA James B 7 VA Haskel B 5 m WV Laura 2 WV Soloman 28 laborer VA - the only Sol*Hood in VA and the only one born in VA Magrew, Augustus 16 VA [son of John & Susan, Rebecca's brother]
