The "proper" English would not have accepted or recognized the copulation of "mixed marriages" or even acknowledged the fact that they were going on.... Unless, Like in Pocahontas, sold out by other Native Americans for the cost of a copper pot/tea kettle, kidnapped, held for ransom for almost a year, "Christanized" and baptized, married off to a middle class up and comer, [who by the way did what the Virginia Company needed him to do]. Then when she traveled to England and contracted Tuberculosis {sp}, or poisoned by the same Virginia Company officials, who really did not want her to return to Virginia to report what she had seen. Anyone who was a commoner, was of such little importance to the powers that they would only acknowledge him and his family when he was only one of three to survive till the 1624 Muster of Colonist. Interesting, since John Dods came as a Laborer and made it, when all the Gentlemen and the skilled did not.

I did run across this last night though, and wanted to post it for those who may need the information on John Dod's, Jamestown Colony. From: "The Living in Virginia - 1623" John Dod's and wife, Mrs. Dod's 'The Original Lists of persons of quality; emigrants; religious exiles; political rebels; serving......' p 202 "Musters of the Inhabitants of America" in "Neck of Land-Corporation of Charles City" The Muster of the Inhabitants of the Neck of Land in the Corporation of Charles Cittie in Va., taken the 24th of January 1624.; The Muster of John Dod's John Dod's aged 36 years in the Susan Constant April 1607 Jane his wife aged 40 years p 267 "Patents Granted" "The Corporation of Charles Cittie" John Dod's 50 Acres Note: 50 A of land was being granted to settlers at the rate of 50A per head, indicating that John Dod's arrived in America alone, and probably married here.

Author: DeniseLowWeso Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.dodson/1151.1.2.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Thanks for writing everyone. My family changed Dodson to Dotson in Kentucky or a bit before--they go by both. My brother, first son back 5 generations that we know, did the DNA test and it came out border country between Scotland and England and then connect to Virginia Dodsons of Richmond. All the 1st sons are named Wm. and then vary middle names. John Dodds' is the 1607 laborer/carpenter on the Susan Constant. John Smith mentions him in his journals, later on, as a soldier. He was no gentleman. He survived the first excusion, and when he married, I doubt it would be recorded. No unions between Native people and English were recorded. For that matter, Crazy Horse's parents' union was not recorded, yet we know from oral history exactly who his parents were. I met a descendant of Boston Custer, by the way, the only surviving Custer brother, who said their family had a Shawnee grandmother. More on this in my book Ghost Stories of the New West (Woodley, 2010). He said that was ! oral tradition, but I looked up western MD where he said she was from, and sure enough, there had been a Shawnee town there. Wish it were all nailed down for us in documents, but it isn't. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

(shes 82...I think) She's the daughter of Ivan Elmer Edwards. Ivan was the son of William, and brother to Hiram, Bill, Helen, and Hazel. I'm on Facebook (deb staudt Wandolowski). If your on, contact me, and I'll let Mom know who you are, and to add you. You two can probably share some fun stories. Especially about Her Grandpa...He sounds like he was hysterical.
