Hi, Jean, Several years ago I worked with a descendant of Josiah Dobbs on his genealogy. She lived in Downers Grove, IL. If you are interested in her name write me privately and I'll give you her address (current in 1985). One of Josiah's sons was Johnny Dobbs, as I'm sure you know. Have you a copy of the Genealogical Helper Jan/Feb 1991 on which Johnny Dobbs' picture appeared on the cover, along with an article (about him) on an inside page? Photo was contributed by the correspondent mentioned in above address. If you don't have it I'll snail mail it to you. Dorann
