Alvin T. Hodge, Pioneer Citizen, is Dead
Alvin T. Hodge, aged 74, pioneer citizen of this section of Oklahoma, passed away Saturday at his home northwest of Coweta. His sudden death, resulting from acute congestion, came as a shock to members of his family and other people of the community. We reproduce below extracts from an article appearing in the Sunday Tulsa Democrat concerning Mr. Hodge.
"The pioneer citizen of Tulsa is dead. Alvin T. Hodge, who saw a city spring up on land that once bore only his two-room log cabin and the teepees of "Tulsa Town" Creek Indians, died at his home at Coweta on Thursday. He will be buried at Oak Lawn cemetery. Mr. Hodge is rightly known as the pioneer citizen of Tulsa.
He is the first white man to have lived here. Here he was born; here he lived a long and useful life; near here, he died. Years and years ago, when the Creek Indians came west and north from areas they had occupied for generations among the bayous of Mississippi, one hand settled in the sand hills along the banks of what is now the Arkansas river. Locopoke, Tulsa town, was founded. The father of Alvin Hodge was one of the founders.
Hodge was born in a cabin situated on the Arkansas river bank, some distance below where the Midland Valley railroad bridge now crosses. In 1868, after returning from four years spent with the Confederate armies, Alvan Hodge returned to Locopoke and here built his home-a two room cabin.
Hodge owned and farmed a section of land lying east of his home, that section of the city now covered by the exclusive homes of Maple Ridge and the choice residential district east of the Midland Valley tracks. Mr. Hodge was active in all affairs of the Confederate veterans and attended many national reunions. Funeral services will be held at Mowbray's undertaking chapel at 2 o'clock this afternoon.
The body will be brought here from Coweta on Sunday morning. Alvin Hodge will be laid to rest in a cemetery that was once a part of his farm.
