I am Barbara Dodson Walker a native of Georgetown. I was born in Georgetown and lived there until my marriage in 1953 only to return in 1982. My address' include on the 29th Street, 2443 P Street, 2709 P Street, 1342 27th Street. I attended the Wormley and Phillips schools, but not Francis Junior High. I went to St. Augustine School until graduating to attend Dunbar High School. I helped write Black Georgetown Remembered, but do not appear in the film. My sister does appear in the opening scene. My family can be found in the Holy Trinity Church records as ' free Negroes' in 1840. There is a mention of Joseph Dodson securing a burial in Holy Rood Cemetery in 1832. My father grew up on 36th Street and was one of the three African American physicians who served the community. The Family helped to found Epiphany Roman Catholic Church in 1925. When I moved back to Georgetown I attended the Church and had my first 2 children baptized there. I now live in the Crestwood section of the city and am learning more about this section of the District each day. I have belonged to 'Nation Washingtonians' a group of African Americans who are attempting to write their story of living in DC. I belong to the Afro American Historical and Genealogical Society (_www.afro.org_ (http://www.afro.org) ) a national group founded with headquarters in DC. I have given talks on local history and genealogy. I know that this is more information that you asked for, but I hope that this will help us do more history of DC especially for those who have moved away. Sincerely, Barbara Dodson Walker <BR><BR><BR>**************************************<BR> AOL now offers free email to everyone. Find out more about what's free from AOL at http://www.aol.com.
