Hi Joyce... I assume you must be a Dodson, so I just basically wanted to say hi to a "cousin"... I'm dying to see this Dodson book (and any others)... My great-grandfather was Charles Columbus Dodson, my paternal grandmother was his daughter, Minnie Pearl (married first to George Hampton Ward), and my father was William Oland Ward. Since you work with the descendants of "Old William" I'm sure Charles Columbus is a familiar name.... The only documentation I have is a "handwritten" list of names written supposedly by the wife of Old William... Do you have relatives in Howard County? I was born in New Franklin - just went back a year ago and took photos of the Dodson and related graves in the Ashland Cemetary.... Georgia (Ward) Herhold -----Original Message----- From: J.
