Surnames: Dodson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/RKT.2ACIB/1546.2.1.1 Message Board Post: The James Randall Dodson that was my great-grandfather was born January 28, 1846 near Monticello, Kentucky. Thomas and Dalia were the youngest children. They moved to Oklahoma in 1907. There is some confusion with the census records. Have you seen the image of the 1900 census where they have several names misspelled starting with Dadson and they show his wife as Harvey instead of Harriet. Was Minnie her real name or a short for something else? Hope this is the same one. Ina
