I'm fairly new to this very active list, and have been interested in reading all the comments and queries. My research is based on the Lucas book, Dodson Family of N. Farnham Parish, as is so many others. My line is from John (b.1720-1730), who is thought to be a son of Lambeth, but could possibly be the son of Bartholomew Richard Dodson. I haven't seen anything on the list about Bartholomew. Does anyone have any more recent information on this family, or does anyone have stronger evidence of John's parents? I'll be happy to exchange information, but there seems to be some very knowledgeable Dodson cousins out there who have more data than I have. Thanks for anything anyone can add.
