Surnames: DODDS/ROGERS Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/QV.2ADI/495.1.3 Message Board Post: Sandy, I have been searching for my DODD connection for a long time. I just recently found them in Red River county, Texas 1880 census. My GGrandparents: Elijah A ROGERS and Emma A Dodd. Living near them are Benjaman and Sarah M DODD, who I also found in 1870 Christian,Independence, Arkansas:Hardin B DODD,Sarah and my GGrandmother Emily A. age 3. I am having trouble with the line from here. Is Benjeman Hardin DODD born abt. 1846 the son of Abner and Mary Jane Martin DODD? There are 2 Benjeman's close to the same age living in the area. I do know that Emily (Dodd) ROGERS named a child Jessie Hardin ROGERS, and that her mothers's name was Sarah M ,so I feel pretty sure that my guess is right but it is pretty confusing. Do you have any info on this part of the DODD family and is Mary Jane Martin DODD related to the infamous John Wesley Hardin ?
