"The Hodges House is one of the oldest and most architecturally significant houses in Surry County...The one and a half story, double-pen log house gains its primary significance from the log wall overhang with runs across east and west (front and rear) sides of the house above first-story level. This feature is both unique in Surry Co., and rare in NC's architectural history. Other details which are probably original are the tiny loft window next to the chimney in the south gable and the wood-shingled pent eave which once shltered the south wall beneath the gable. Alterations have included the replacement of doors and windows, the addition of the porches, and the addition of the rear ell ca 1916. The north end stone chimney is dated 1878, and the south end stone chimney is believed by the present owner to have been built ca 1914. This unusual house is still in Hodges family ownership."
The upper floor was built so that the logs protruded about a foot over the first floor. This allowed owners to remove a plank in the over hang and fire rifles down at marauding animals or Indians. The separate kitchen burned many years ago, and the hot blaze threatened the main structure as well. But it was winter, and the owners used snowballs to douse the flames on the house.
By transcription of the 1790 Surry Co, NC census, the name seems to be Bartholomus, but other records show Bartholomew. One undocumented reference indicates he was literate.
