Ellen Hodge. She was the first of six children.

At the age of 15, she moved to St. Thomas where she
finished her education and later attended Franklin Insti-
tute in Rochester, New York where she received her
diploma in Dressmaking and Designing in 1922.

Several years after establishing herself as a dressmaker

union resulted in nine children.

Following the death of her husband in 1942 she moved
to New York where she resided for' 22 years before re-
turning to her home.

very active member in her church. She will be missed
by all. May she rest in peace.
