The Alford Cemetery in LaGrange, Troup County, GA., is a good candidate cemetery for Isham. There are 8 Alford's and 3 Hogg's memorials listed. Four memorials with 'Lodwick' in their names. Lodwick Alford is a possibility for Isham's father.
(Notes from the Revolutionary War) "Not a man of any rank or distinction, or scarcely any man of property," wrote Colonel Seawell, "has lain in his house since the British passed through Nash County. We are distressed with all the rogues and vagabonds that Cornwallis can raise to pest us with...A certain Robert Beard with fifteen others on Friday last seized the person of John Ferrell, Isham Alford and Robert Melton, together with seven horses and I think three guns,...and carried them all off. Our men after collecting, pursued them; but night coming on, and drawing near the enemey's line, they returned without any luck." (Ref: History of North Carolina: From 1584 to 1783. By Samuel A'court Ashe, c-1908, Nash's Administration, 1780-81, pg 668) Note: John Ferrell maybe Isham Alford's father-in-law.
