George Dodson
( - Jan 1816)
Both family records and county records are very confusing about the George Dodson. There was a preacher in the family named George, but it doesn't seem to be this one. Thomas Dodson appointed his son George his Executor, and the 1779 tax list of Pittsylvania Co lists, George Dodson, son of Thos. He made a nuncupative will just before his death in 1816, told to William and Rhoda Dodson. He mentioned sons Thomas, George & Presley, daughter Frankey, and wife, but her name not stated. His first wife appears to have been Anne and they were members of the Broad Run Baptist Church in Fauquier Co and they were dismissed to Halifax Co.
Nuncupative Will 8 Jan 1816; recorded 20 Jan 1817, to William and Rhoda Dodson. He mentioned sons Thomas, George & Presley, daughter Frankey, and a wife [name not stated]. His land to be divided betwedn his sons after the death of their mother.
Thomas and Frankey Dodson were taken under the care of the Broad Run Church, Fauquier Co, 12 Feb 1764.
