This is my Dodson lineage, and I sure wish it went as far back as ya'lls, but one day it will! John E. J. Dodson b. 1841 Halifax Co. VA - Married Sarah Angelina Drew b. 1838 two sons - Charles A b. 1868 - Norfolk, VA Clifton H. b. 1876 - Norfolk, VA Clifton H. married Grace Hotelin Canoles b. 1882 they had lots of children - one was my Dad John E. Dodson b. 4-14-17 Wash. D.C. - married Georgia Pinkham b. 8-1-21 Lexington, ME two offspring - Grace M. Dodson b. 3-28-46 - Washington, D.C. John E. Dodson Jr. b. 9-3-49 - Washington, D.C. Grace (that's me) married John Sammis b. 9-12-44 - San Diego, CA (divorced 11/95) two offspring - John A. Sammis b. 11-6-66 - Camp Springs, MD Jason E.M. Sammis b. 3-21-70 - Riverside, CA Don't know if this will help anyone or not, but it sure is interesting to see everyone's info.. By the way, the library here in Cheyenne, WY has the Rev. Ege book on microfiche. I've looked at it, and xeroxed some of the pages - I can't find any connection to my branch, but would be happy to check on anyone else's. Take care all you "Dodson's", and have a nice Thanksgiving. Dee
