This collection contains a survey plat for 3,000 acres on Black Creek in Pulaski County, Virginia, that was owned by General James Hoge in 1848. This collection also contains two letters sent from Hoge to John Preston [at that time Treasurer of Virginia]. One of these letters, dated March 6, 1817, discusses Hoge's land in Russell County to be sold for non-payment of taxes. The other letter discusses the closure of an account. This collection also contains a certificate from 1781 that entitles James Hoge (written "Hogg") [father of General Hoge] to 130 acres in Montgomery County that he had settled in 1769.
