The Dodge Tree

To all the Dodges who read my tree:

The information I have from Peter Dodge down to William and Richard's father is gleanings from "Joseph T. Dodge, Colonial Families of the USA" and some speculation from an e-mail Dodge. All of us Dodges would like it if any of you have some actual proof of this lineage, and would e-mail me with your information.  We all have been trying to no avail to prove the connection between the lines of Richard, William and Tristam!  There is also a wonderful Dodge Association. For more information on this, please e-mail Barbara V. Dodge --- barbdodge@dodgefamily.org.

I am Shelley Dodge Green - sdgreen715@aol.com

Notes for JOHN DODGE II:

His will was written 2 April 1635, and proved 15 October, 1635.

An examination of the Parish Registry of East Coker, Somersetshire, England discloses the records of the birth of 4 children; William, Richard, Michael and Mary. these four children are also named in the 1635 will of John Dodge Sr. The will does not show Mary's married name. There also seems to be a son John Dodge, who went to America and died there before his father died. Therefore, he is not named in his father's will. It is stated that his brother William carried the news of John Jr's death to his father early in the year of 1635, whereupon John Sr. wrote his last legal epistle.

According to H. F. Waters, Wrotham and Wrotham Heath, are almost side by side and just West of Maidstone in the County of Kent, England. Chinnock and Coker are neighboring parishes in the extreme South or Southeast part of Somersetshire, England. Halstock, in the County of Dorset, England, referred to in the will, is just over the county line South of these parishes.

Halstock is a nearby village of Coker, and lies just over the county line.

iii. THOMAS DODGE II, b. 11 September 1754, Brookfield, Worcester Co., Mass; m. MOLLY ALLEN, 30 December 1773, Brookfield, Worcester Co., Mass.

Notes for THOMAS DODGE II:

THOMAS DODGE, JR. 6 (Thomas 5, John 4, John 3, John 2, William 1) was born Sept 11, 1754, Brookfield, Worcester Co., Mass and died place and date unknown. He married December 30, 1773 Brookfield, Worcester County, Mass. to Molly (or Mary or Mercy) Allen who is guessed to be a descendant of the Walter Allen family of Newbury, Mass rather than a descendant of the Rhode Island Aliens. Genealogy books show several of Walter Allen's descendants relocating in Worcester County and the names of Molly, Mercy, and Mary were common in this line.

I He left Brookfield, Worcester Co., Mass. in the 1780's and it is unknown where he went. Speculation exists he may have gone to New York or Vermont. It is conjecture that the Thomas Dodge who bought and sold property 1779 and 1805 in Brookfield, Madison County, New York may have been the same person. Speculation also exist he either died young or relocated far west or far south since the New England, New York and Penn state censuses for 1790 and 1800 do not show what appears to be a match.

He fought in the Revolutionary War for Brookfield, Worcester Co., Mass and was enlisted as late as Jan 1, 17 81 as Thomas Jr. His Rev War physical description was as follows: short around 5 foot 8 inches, dark complexion, black hair, age 27.

Children: unknown

iv. REUBEN DODGE, b. 01 September 1756, Brookfield, Worcester Co., Mass; d. 03 January 1813, West Bloomfield, Ontario Co., NY; m. ELIZABETH "BETSEY" HAYWARD; b. 09 February 1759.

Notes for REUBEN DODGE:

Reuben Dodge served in the Rev War for Brookfield Worcester Co., Mass and his wife Elizabeth received a Widows Pension W-20996. Among his land and sea service he fought in Concord April 19, 1775 as a volunteer. The information and depositions in the Widows Pension indicated that Elizabeth was commonly called Betsey by her relatives. While Reuben Dodge resided in Oxford, Chenango Co.. N. Y. his house was burned with his Rev War papers inside. It is confirmed that Reuben Dodge lived next door to his brother Solomon Dodge in the 1800 census for Oxford, Chenango Co., N. Y. Reuben Dodge did not record land ownership and perhaps he lived in a cabin on brother Solomon Dodge's farm, or perhaps just didn't record his ownership. While serving in the Rev. War in the army, Reuben Dodge drove a team of horses and wagon from Boston from Boston passing through Brookfield, his native town, to the Army of New York State carrying military stores and provisions. Jesse Hamilton, brother of Racheal Hamilton who was the second wife of brother John Dodge6, also father of Sally Hamilton who married Russell Dodge7, was the master wagoner. Elizabeth (or Betsey) Hayward was a descendant of the FIRST MAYFLOWER VOYAGER (Cape Cod Bay, Mass 1620) BY THE NAME OF WILLIAM WHITE. The ancestral lineage is as follows: Elizabeth Hayward7, Jonas Hayward Jr.6, Jonas Hayward 5, George Hayward 4, Anna White3, Resolved White2, WILLIAM WHITE 1). This can be verified in Mayflower Families through Five Generations, Volume One, edited by Lucy Mary Kellogg, pages 104-5, 122-5 It is guessed Reuben Dodge was moving to West Bloomfield, Ontario where he died Jan 3, 1813. possible Reuben Dodge was just passing through the area of West Bloomfield and happened to die there. The 1810 U S. census shows only one Reuben Dodge in the state of New York and that was in Watertown, Jefferson Co., NY. The ages and children match those of the family of Reuben Dodge.

The Children were:

T76 Asenath 7, b. 1785 in Brookfield, Worcester Co., Mass, m. ? Andrews and in 1846 lived in Canandaiqua, Ontario Co., NY. She was a deponent in Elizabeth Dodge's Widow's Pension W-20996, Mass, Rev. War under Reuben Dodge. In the 1850 Census for Farmington, Ontario Co., NY, Arseneth Andrews, age 64, female born Mass, was living in the household of William B. and Frances Simmons. Frances could be her daughter. The 1840 census for Farmington showed John Andrews who could have been the husband of Asenath Andrews.

T77 Hori, b. 1800 in Oxford, C Canandaiqua, Ontario Co. In 1846 he was a resident of Canandaiqua, Ontario Co., NY. He was a deponent in Elizabeth Dodge's Widows Pension in 1846/

T78 Ruth, ? unknown if daughter but she arrived in Oxford about 1800, which was the same year that Reuben Dodge was there. M. a man named Abel from Guilford. NY.

Buenos Ayers moved to Pelham, Hampshire Co., Mass. and was there in the 1820 U.S. Census.

Notes for LUCY KIMBALL:

Lucy Kimball (third wife) was born Jan 22, 1759 to Andrew Kimball and Rebecca Watson in Brookfield, Mass. John Dodge was a Rev War soldier and she filed a pension described below . In 1846 she moved to Eliza or New Boston Township, Mercer Co.. Illinois and she died Sept 5.1849. age 89 years. and is buried in Shields Cemetery, Sec. 4, near the city of Mannon in the Township of New Boston, Mercer Co., Illinois which is near the border line of Eliza Twsp. Abijah Wilson, and other Wilsons signed her Rev War Pension papers as witnesses; they appeared in the 1840 and 1850 censuses for Township 15, Eliza Twsp. Mercer County Illinois; and lastly they were buried near Lucy Dodge in Shields Cemetery. It is guessed Lucy Dodge's daughter married a Wilson. In the 1800 census for Oxford, Chenango Co., N.Y. John Dodge lived next door to Benjamin Wilson and Samuel Kimble (or Kimball).

· John Dodge fought in the Revolutionary War in 1776 in Capt Walbridge s Co., Col.

Rheades Regt of the Mass. Line. Lucy Kimball's Widow's Pension W-22949 with depositions continued the following information: She was married two miles opposite of Unadelia, Otsego Co., N. Y. in Delaware County by a Judge named Wattles which could have been either Sluman, Nathaniel, or Charles Wattles. The widow's Pension mentioned both Nathaniel and Charles but the only Wattles known for sure to be a Judge was Sluman Wattles, cousin of Nathaniel.

Present at the Lucy Kimball marriage on John Dodge's side of the family were Ms mother, his sister, his sister's husband, and his two sons by a previous marriage to Elizabeth Hill. After a few months of marriage on April 10, 17 93 the family moved to Oxford, Chenango Co., N.Y.

Children of JOHN DODGE and ELIZABETH HILL are:

58. i. JOHN18 DODGE, XII, b. 11 May 1779, Brookfield, Worcester Co., Mass; d. 04 September 1847, Oxford, Chenago Co., NY.

ii. PETER DODGE III, b. Brookfield, Worcester Co., Mass; d. 06 March 1860, East Troupsburg, Steuben Co., NY; m. MATILDA SHELDON; b. 1779; d. 26 July 1844, East Troupsburg, Steuben Co., NY.

Notes for PETER DODGE III:

Both Peter and Matilda Dodge are buried in East Troupsburg Cemetery. They left Oxford, N. Y. in 1831 and went to Troupsburg, Steuben Co., N. Y.

His parents John Dodge and Elizabeth Hill were mentioned in Lucy Kimball (3rd wife) Widows Pension for Rev War, W-22949 stating "sons Peter and John were born by his first wife Elizabeth Hill who died December 17 81 in Brookfield, Mass." A Connecticut birthplace was given for Peter by the 1850 U.S. Census but a Mass. birthplace was given in the 1855, N.Y. State Census. The Annals of Oxford, N.Y. by Henry Galpin, page 293 indicated Peter in 1800 came to Oxford, N.Y. from Vermont,but it is unknown where in Vermont.

In the 1810 U.S. Census for New York, two other Dodges lived near Peter Dodge in Prestoni Chenango Co., N. Y. They were Elijah Dodge (age over 45) and Nathaniel Dodge (age 26-45). It is speculation that they were related to Peter Dodge. Registered land deeds show Elijah's wife as Desdemona and Nathaniell s wife as Ann.

There is some speculation John 7, Peter 7, and Ruth 7 Dodge may have come from Gilford, Vermont. In 1808 John Dodge, Jr. sold his Norwich, Chenango Co., N. Y. land to Isaac Stafford of Gilford, Vermont. In 1810 U.S. Census Isaac Stafford was shown living next door to Peter Dodge in Oxford, Chenango Co., N. Y.

He married DORCAS BURLINGAME 1786 in Vermont, daughter of ISRAEL BURLINGAME and EUNICE CRANDALL. She was born 12 March 1766 in Weathersfield, VT163, and died 20 July 1845 in McDonough, NY.

Notes for SOLOMON DODGE:

Solomon Dodge was

born in 1767 in Vermont and came to Oxford in 1791 from Sidney in

company with Daniel Tucker. There were but two houses in the village at

that time. He was in the employment of General Hovey and worked under

him in cutting the road from Undilla river to the Chenago at Oxford.

His second coming to Oxford was in the fall of 1795 in company with Mrs.

Jonathan Baldwin, who came through Egremont, Mass. At this time he

settled on what is known as the Morse farm, owned by Alpha and Edward

Morse. Mr. Dodge made a small clearing, using the logs to build his

first house, which had neither chimney or windows, excepting a hole in

the roof and a blanket for a door. After he had cut the trees far enough

away so that they would not fall on the building, he put up a second log

house, which was consider quite luxuries, for it had doors, widows and

chimney. He married Dorcas Burlingame not far from 1796, who was born

March 12, 1766, in Vermont. She had one sister,Azubah, and one brother,

Ritchison, who was the first surveyor of the town. Mr. Dodge sold out in

1802 to Daniel Denison, and returned to Willet where he purchased a

large farm, but meeting with many reverses, returned to Oxford after

five or six years and settled west of the village in what is known as

"Dodge Hollow", where he died of numb palsy in April, 1830. The only

descendants of Mr. Dodge now living in Oxford, are Herbert Emerson, B.

M. Emerson, and John E. Jones. Mr. Dodge was a lover of a good horse and

in his day owned many fine ones. While living in "Dodge Hollow" he built

a race track on his farm, which on many occasions called together

sportsmen of that day to witness the strife between the owners of fast steppers.

After the death of her husband, Mrs Dodge lived with her

daughter, Mrs. Gideon Lawton in McDonough, where she died in

1845. THIS INFORMATION COMES FROM "THE ANNALS OF OXFORD" BY HENRY J. GALPIN, PUBLISHED IN 1906 -

He married MARY BURGHARDT, daughter of PETER BURGHARDT and MERCY CHURCH. She was born 17 June 1784 in Great Barringotn, Mass.

Notes for JOHN DODGE, XII:

The Annals of Oxford, N. Y. by Henry Galpin, p. 293-4, indicated that in the year 1800 John, Peter, and Ruth(brothers and sister)left their Vermont home and came to Oxford, Chenango Co,, N, Y, to reside with their uncle, Solomon Dodge. However it is unknown form where in Vermont they came. It is speculation they may have been staying with either uncle or grandfather Thomas Dodge Jr. or Sr. or the Hill family (deceased mother Elizabeth Hill) either of whom may have gone to Vermont. In 1800 their father John Dodge, Sr. 6 lived in Oxford, Chenango Co., N.Y. and the 1800 U.S. Census did not show sons John and Peter (between ages 16-26) living with him.

There is some speculation John 7, Peter 7 and Ruth 7 Dodge may have come from Gillord, Vermont. In 1805 John Dodge, Jr. sold his Norwich, Chenango Co., N. Y. land to Isaac Stafford of Gilford, Vermont. In 1810 U.S. Census Isaac Stafford was shown living next door to Peter Dodge in Oxford, Chenango Co., N. Y.

John Dodge submitted a deposition in favor of his step mother Lucy Kimball her Rev War Widows Pension: W-22949: "I am the son of John Dodge, Sr. by a previous wife named Elizabeth Hill who died when I was about 2 1/2 years of age." This is consistent with the death of Elizabeth (Hill) Dodge who died Nov or Dec 17 81 in Brookfield, Worcester Co., Mass and her death is recorded in the Brookfield Vital

Statistics up to 1850.

John Dodge is shown as a junior in every single land transaction in the early 1800's. Also in 1806, his name had a Junior after it while a Lieutenant in the N. Y. Militia for Chenango Co., on page 839 of Annual Report of the State Historian (N.Y.) by Hugh Hastings. He was one of the original organizers of the Baptist Church in Oxford, N. Y. in July 14, 1815.

The Third Family Bible, used as a source, was compiled by Richard H. Dodge, who lived in 1976 at 1054 South Dahlia, Apt. 25B, Denver Colo.

Martin was referred to as William Martin Dodge in the Bible, and apparently in later life dropped the first name.

He lived from 1820-1846 in McDonough, Chenago Co., NY and died in 1846. His family under the new head of household eldest son Charles Edgar Dodge moved in 1850 to Rochester, Monroe County, NY, in 1860 to Bradford Twp, Chickasaw Co.

Notes for WILLIAM E. DODGE I:

We also have 1826 as a birth date.

William Dodge was a Private in Co. G., !2th Wis. Infantry. He enlisted September 23, 1861, and was mustered out July 13, 1865.

This company was organized in Madison Wi. It went to Fort Leavenworth KS, and then to Fort Scott KS in March of 1862.

It was in Grants Central Mississippi Campaign, and then was involved in guard duty along the Memphis and Charleston Railroad until March of 1863. It was in Vicksburg MS May 11, and participated in the siege of Vicksburg May 22-July 4, 1863. Then came the capture of Fort Beauregard Sept. 4 and back to Vicksburg until April 1864. It saw more action until it was disbanded in July 1865, but William was in the hospital from June 21 1864 to Feb.28, 1865.

He re enlisted as a veteran on Jan3, 1864.

The Regiment lost 3 officers and 93 enlisted men killed and 3 officers and 224 enlisted men by disease.

William contracted "chronic diarrhea caused by hard service and exposure" and was hospitalized in Memphis TN during July 1863.

Later he received a hernia on his left side caused by unloading a consignment from a steamboat at Natchez MS on or about Oct. 15, 1863.

Other hospitalizations:

March 13, 1863 - Jaundice and diarrhea

Nov. 2, 1864 to Dec. 5, 1864 - Chronic diarrhea

Feb. 11, 1865 - Pneumonia

Mar 3, 1865 - Acute bronchitis

There are several discrepancies about his age. The Family Bible has 1827 - his death certificate says 1826. His enlistment papers says he is 32 in 1861. His discharge says he was 34 in 1865! The Federal Census of 1880 gives his age as 46 making the year of his birth as 1834. I think he was 42 when he was married in 1869 to 16 year old Sarah.

He came to Marathon County in 1854 to "engage in logging".

Notes for SARAH R. WRIGHT:

There is a discrepancy about Sarah's middle initial. On her wedding certificate, she has Sarah R. On the pension papers for her Civil War widow's pension, she signed Sarah E.
