My Great-Grandmother Frances Anna (Burnett) Blair, Hodnett was the daughter of James Richardson Burnett & his 1st wife, Frances Ann Terry. Frances married my Great-Grandfather, Charles William Blair on 19 Mar 1895 in Louisville, Jefferson Co, KY and their 3 daughters were born there: my Grandmother (Nonna), Nellie Lee, Grace Beatrice & Ruth Adeline Blair. The family moved to Seattle, WA in 1909 but they divorced and each remarried and had additional children. Anna, as she was called, married William Harry Hodnett on 29 Aug 1912 in Tacoma, Pierce Co, Washington, although they lived in Seattle. Their 2 daughters were Mary Elizabeth and Isabell May Hodnett. Harry, as he was called, left his wife and daughters in June 1920 and ended up in New York, New York by the end of that month. He never returned and so far there's no record they divorced, but Harry married again in New York, where he died in 1936.
