No James Hodges born near Ledbury 1745-1773. There is a baptism at Pencombe to a Robert & Sarah in 1750, but Pencombe~ 24k NW of Ledbury
1774. . A James Hodges baptised Eastnor in 27/2/1774 to Benjamin & Elizabeth & Eastnor only 4k from Ledbury by road, only 2k over the fields!
If this our James then he did not marry Sarah Trigg!!
