Dodson, James (I think) 16 June 1912 Obituary: DIES OF HEART DISEASE Mrs. Lucile Dodson, of Botland aged 81 years, died of heart trouble Sunday night. Mrs. Dodson had been afflicted with heart disease for some time and during the storm between eleven and twelve o'clock Sunday night, she became very much excited and succumbed while the elements were in such a fury. Mrs. Dodson was a highly respected Christian woman. She was a faithful member of the Mill Creek Baptist Church from which the funeral services were conducted Tuesday. Mrs. Dodson is survived by her seven children, two boys and five girls who are as follows; Messrs, John and Jim Dodson, Botland; Mrs. Charlie Miller,Flordia; Mrs. Jack Riley, Mrs. Jack Ambrose, Irvinville; Mrs. Oscar Auberry, Bloomfield; and Mrs. Emma Courtney, Botland. (NOTE: Mill Creek Cemetery is 5 miles east of Bardstown on Hwy 605N to Woodlawn Road.) ( Mrs. Jack Riley must be Mrs Jack Nally , Mrs. Jack Ambrose is Jake Ambrose) I cannot figure why Lucinda was in the 1880 census twice.
