Notes

a.

Note: S was the son of JAMES HOGG and his wife, MCDOWELL ALVES, who emigrated from Scotland in 1774 to North Carolina, along with their 3 children. The 2 younger children, including WALTER, remained in Scotland until the end of the Revolutionary War to complete their education. In 1786, JAMES HOGG petitioned to have the names of his sons, WALTER & GAVIN, to be changed to his wife's maiden name by the General Assembly of North Carolina, thus creating the beginning of the ALVES family line in Henderson, Kentucky. GAVIN HOGG appears to have been the same person by that name who was in Bertie County in 1818 where he petitioned for the freedom of JOHN C. COPELAND (1808-1893), the enslaved son of ANTHONY COPELAND. See file of JOHN C. COPELAND.
Note: JAMES ALVES was a grandson of WALTER ALVES & MARIA DAVIS of Henderson,Kentucky. WALTER ALVE
