I think I've sent a "zillion" attachments out now (to Dotsons also), but I'm happy to do so. I know there is controversy on some of these ancestors, but I hope the file will give all of you some fun in muddling through. Because I now have the 3 Dodson/Dotson books (Wms/Lucas; Ege and Richard Dotson descendants), I don't pour much new information into this Dodson file unless it is updating or correcting what I already have. As you will see, most of these folks are the early (1600-1800) people since the file has been a by-product of my own search for my ancestor born in 1752. I'm still hunting. He and his descendants are listed at: http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/r/e/n/Betty-D-Renick/ So, if anyone thinks they've got a lead on my Richard, I'll be eternally grateful. Best regards to all, Betty
