Welcome to the Hood Family pages!

This page is under construction. Since it includes genealogical info, it will probably always be under construction. Our Bright and Smiling Faces.
We Hoods live in Frisco, Texas. Our email address is texashoods@yahoo.com. You can also email Roger (father and webmaster) at work.

GENEALOGICAL STUFF

We have compiled genealogical research (still rather raw) on many branches of our family trees, including the following surnames:

Hood	Gabel	Eastman	Getchell	Hutcherson
Boeker	Cowen	Robison	Hatch	Berry
Jones	Polk	LaRue	Dunlap	Cousart

... and many others, going back in some extraordinary cases to the 11th century and earlier. In fact, using the LDS FamilySearch portal, I have discovered connections through the Polk family back to Robert the Bruce, King of Scotland, William the Conquerer, and Charlemagne. You will find that by clicking here.

LISTS

You can see an alphabetic listing of our ancestors here. This is completely remodeled to make it more user-friendly - check it out!

I have rearranged it, to locate our ancestors by locality, here (it is not fully updated).

RESEARCH

We have put the known Hood ancestors here. If you are researching the Hoods in Lancaster County, South Carolina, check out this page.

I placed a transcription of a memorandum by Oscar Hood dated 1933, concerning James Hood (1785-1830). This came from the bowels of the Library of Congress. There are some fascinating clues there about my William Hood, that I haven't yet verified.

OTHER
FAMILIES

I have placed some information about the Philip Hatch family on this website. My wife's family's roots trace back to this immigrant. Similarly, I have added information about the William Berry family tree, which connects to my wife's family.

Speaking of which, I put up the Gabel Family Pages on the website (finally!).

On 3-30-99, I added the long-overdue Eastman Pages, tracing Roger's line from his mother through Roger Eastman, the immigrant, to the earliest known ancestor, John Eastman.

Take a look at the Genealogical Queries Page We also have a few good genealogical links right here.

Hopefully, the 14 MEGS of space that Geocities thoughtfully provides FREE to its members will allow us room to post a lot more of this information!
