from CONCORD TWP - THE COLONIAL LEGACY by Case; Edward Jennings bought 100 acres from George Strode, in 1701...Concord Twp (footnote - This appears in deedbook G, 647) This land was sold by Edward Jennings/Jennings (also spelled Jonnans) on Oct 22, 1705, to John Hannum.......(this appears to indicate that perhaps Edward was not of British descent, but of Germanic origins....I don't think an Englishman would have had a name like Jonnans....worth looking into). There is no mention of a Dodd in the history of Concord or in THE HISTORY OF CHESTER CO PA, by Futhey and Cope....neither man left wills, either, or adm. papers in any area counties, or are they mentioned in any way...witness, admin, etc.I checked Jennings/Jenning/Jenings/Jening/Jonnans, and Dodd. As the majority of these early settlers were Quakers, I checked the Concord MM marriage certificates....nothing for Jennings or Dodd....so, none of this surname married in this meeting 1679-1808 or attended the marriages of others, either. I didn't find the names in any of the MM records I have, so I would think there is a good chance they might not have been Quakers. from Early Court Records...through 1710.... Edward Jenning served as supervisor of Highways for Concord - 1701 " " served as Concord Constable 1703, 1704/5 He had indentured slaves, as there are a couple mentions of problems he had with them.....but, there is nothing for the surname Dodd. I can find absolutely nothing for Dodd....if you have other Jenning/Jennings given names you want me to check for, send them along.
