I appreciate all the help in trying to find Isaiah Dodson. The Isaiah I am looking for was born in 1809 not 1804. He died in 1866 in Newton County, AR, after being shot in the jaw by bushwhackers. We believe he came from the Giles Co. TN area. His name is listed on the church roll for the Robertsons Fork church of christ in 1836 as removed. Also on a deed in Giles Co. in late 1830s with a George Dodson who were selling land for a Sarah Dodson to a Mr. Thorpe. Thanks again for taking the time to try to help.

But maybe not too late! My husband is descended from Isaiah Dodson who was born in 1809 in TN. His oldest son James Rasbell Carson Dodson was born in 1839, TN before the family moved to Arkansas. My husband's grandfather was James's son David Leander Dodson. Isaiah was married to Elizabeth M. Dickey, daughter of James Ross and Mary "Polly" McCutcheon Dickey. I think but can not prove that Isaiah had a brother named George W. who moved to Green County MO and died there in late 1850s or early 60s. Would really like to connect with someone who could help us get back further than Isaiah. He is our brick wall on our Dodson family. Isaiah died in Newton County, AR in 1866. Donna Dodson AR
