Hello Dodson Cousins, I have enjoyed reading all the messages on the Dodson List, it has filled in so many "blanks" for me and brought me closer to my ancestors to read your comments and history. My Dodson line is: Charles Dodson, Sr of Richmond Co., VA, b. ca 1649 > Thomas Dodson, Sr, b. 1681, Old Rapphannock > Joshua Dodson, b. 1725, Richmond - listed on tax list for Surry Co, NC in 1782 > Daniel Dodson, b. 1769 in VA(?), d. 1848 in Clayton Co.,GA > Edmund Dodson, b. 1796 in GA, d. 1882. Benton Co., AL > William S. Dodson, b. 1833, Benton Co., AL, d. 1881, DeLeon, TX > Isaac Philo Dodson, b. 1873, DeLeon, TX, d. 1933 Westbrook, TX > Willie Lee Dodson, b. 1895, TX, d. 1980 in Austin, TX (my grandmother, married a Robbins) Monroe Lee Robbins, b. 1915, Gorman, TX, d. 1981, Austin, TX (my father) Is there anyone who follows the same descendancy part of the way? I would love to know about my cousins! I wish all of you a wonderful Holiday season. Hope to hear from some of you. Jo Ellan (Seattle)
