Data that may be wrong or needs further study

Hezekiah C. McCorkle (b. 1833) was enumerated on the 1920 census as "H. C. McCorkle". We thus know his middle name started with "C". He had son "Hezekiah Claude McCorkle" (b. 1882), so we may infer the father was also named "Hezekiah Claude McCorkle", but no evidence supports this.
It isn't clear why Hezekiah C. McCorkle is not enumerated with the rest of his family in the 1880 census. Perhaps this is a transcription error. He was commissioned a justice of the peace in McDuffie County, GA in 1877 and served as such for many years afterwards. Thus he would have certainly resided in McDuffie County, GA at the time of the 1880 census.
