Russ, Thanks for the message. I truly believe that the Dodsons who came early to Wayne co were most likley related. Most went on to Boone/Hendricks Co In. I am still looking for that connection. Please stay in touch. Good luck with your research. By the way, if you are ever near Danville Illinois there is a Dodson cemetery in Kennekuk County Park. The county is establishing a small pioneer village near Dodson/Lockhart homesteads. The church was establish by George & Martha's son Ruel and built by their grandson Rev George Dodson. Good luck with your research.
