****
I have a hunch that James HOCKENHULL, who married Betty (HOCKENHULL) is the father to both John HOCKENHULL who married Phoebe LEA *and* Elizabeth HOCKENHULL who married John LEA. I also have a hunch that Thomas LEA, who married Martha ROBINSON is the father to both Phoebe LEA *and* John LEA. Martha ROBINSON may not be the mother to Thomas's older children, James, b. c1826 & Mary, b. c1826.
Would love to find the clues that prove this!
