He is also probably the Michael Dodson who ended up in the area of East Freedom, Blair Co., PA. My own ancestor, Thomas Dodson, was from the Gettysburg area, and he moved to the East Freedom area himself a few years after Michael, so it is likely they were related, but how is not known. There are still lots of Dodsons in Blair Co., including the mayor of Hollidaysburg. Perhaps if he joined the DNA project the connection between the ones in Blair Co. and the ones further east could be verified. Just a suggestion.
