Notes:
===============================================================================
HUSBAND - Dr. Stephen DODD
From Knox County, Ohio
1850 census-Whiteside Co, IL. 1860 census-Carroll Co, IL.
Date of death also given as 22 Sep 1868 at Milledgeville, Carroll Co.,
Illinois.
Stephen Dodd was Birthdate April 28, 1784, at Mendham, New Jersey, to
Parmenas and Patience Wright Dodd.
He married Phebe Babbitt on November 1, 1809. He moved from the family
home area in New Jersey to Knox
County, Ohio. A farmer, regional physician and minister, he preached
at the Presbyterian Church, road horseback
with his medicine, and was Justice of the Peace in 1823. In 1824, when
Jesse was Birthdate, Stephen and Phebe
had eleven children, including five-year-old triplets.
In 1836, Sarah, one of the triplets, was the first death in the family.
By 1837, there were 14 living children and the
15th was on its way. In this year, Stephen moved his family to Carroll
County, Illinois, settling at Milledgeville. Ten
years later, in 1847, tragedy truly struck, taking the lives of Phebe
(Death date Oct. 3, 1847 at age 56) and daughter
Jemima, then 18. Stephen remarried on Dec. 14, 1847; his second wife
was Philenia Munson Noble. Philenia had two
sons by her marriage to the deceased Dr. Noble and added two daughters
to Stephen's family. He lived the rest of his
life in Milledgeville,
Carroll County, Illinois, where he Death date August 28, 1868, at age
81; he is buried just south of Milledgeville in
Bethel cemetery on South Otter Creek Drive (Lot 8) with Phebe, Jemima
and other members of his family. One stone
marks the resting places of Stephen, Meima,
Phebe, and son Stephen. An identical stone nearby marks the graves
of daughter Phebe and her husband David Smith
and their daughter Angeline Smith.
Milledgeville. Stephen and Phebe must have been among the earliest residents
of this small town, if they ever lived
in the town itself. Settlers began arriving in the area in the early
1830s to claim government land grants. An enterprising
millwright by the name of Peters saw the possibilities in 1834, but
became ill and gave up his claim to Jesse Kester, who
built a saw mill by 1839. It was from this mill - and the settlement
which grew at the edge of it - that Mill-edge-ville soon
derived its name. The first meeting of the Methodist Church was held
in James McCreedy's barn; it wasn't until 1855
that the first church was built. The post office was established in
1844, and in 1847, the year Phebe Death date, that
the first school was held in a private house and taught by Miss Miriam
Whitney. The town was actually platted in 1850
with an addition platted in 1854. Stephen Death date in 1868. (see
history of
Milledgeville, Illinois at http://www.milledgeville.com and The History
of Carroll County). By 1877, the village had 300
residents and was ready to build a permanent school.
Milledgeville was actually started before Mount Carroll, which just
to the west would become the county seat of
Carroll County. The county itself was formally created by an Act of
Legislature in 1839 and named after Charles
Carroll, signer of the Declaration of Independence. The first settlements
in the area were still a little further west along
the Mississippi River at Savanna. 1836 marks the date of the first
land claims at Mount Carroll, where the first log cabin
was built in 1841.
Mount Carroll, too, grew up around a mill.

Dodd genealogy (Avlyn Conley Dodd):
Apparently Stephen Dodd and his wife Phebe Babbitt Dodd moved to Knox
County in 1814 and left in about 1837. Several children, including my great
great
grandfather Jesse were Birthdate there and daughter Sarah Death date
there. They were in Bloomfield Township where he was farmer, regional physician
and minister - exhorting at the Presbyterian Church, and was JP in 1823.

Subject: Re: Dodd family
Lloyd,
Hi! First of all, thanks for your note! Enjoyed hearing from you. I'm sorry to say, I don't have my info in GEDCOM format but in the format you found it at Flo's website. I sent her my file and she pretty much posted it as it was.
I would really like any information you have about Amzi and his children.
I know he was divorced once and remarried; I know he went to California
in the early gold rush with at least two of his brothers, one of whom Death
date at Oroville; I know he lived in Franklin Co., Iowa, and
purchased land there and married Rebecca Colson (2nd wife) there. But
he disappeared from that area after the Civil War.
Dodd genealogy (Avlyn Conley Dodd). It says
"Amzi was Birthdate June 7, 1810, Mendham, Morris Co., NJ., and Death
date Aug. 31, 1887 at Boone Co, Iowa. he married 1 - Phebe DeWitt and 2nd
on Nov. 25, 1856, Franklin Co, Iowa, Rebecca J. Gilson (probably Gibson)
who was Birthdate in 1830 IN and Death date Aug. 31, 1873 Boone Co, Iowa.
He appeared on the 1856 Franklin Co, IA Census; 1860 Marshall Co, IA census
and 1880 Boone Co census with wife Annie M. (a 3rd wife??) age 55, b. TN
as were her parents.

Contacts: Hi Tara
Contacts: That is correct although the dates for Edward Y. Dodd are
incorrect we
believe, as are most of the dates for the children of Stephen and Phebe
Dodd. If you are a relative of Amzi Dodd then you probably know Lloyd
Horrocks?? I just came across his name and emailed him and got a response
back a couple of days ago.
I have wondered about the "first" family of Amzi Dodd for years. I
have
found his grave, along with his second wife Rebecca and a son, James
Gibson
Dodd at the Lynwood Cemetery, Boone, Boone Co, IA. I have found Amzi
on the
1856 special census in Franklin Co, IA along with his brothers Jesse
R. Dodd
and John M. Dodd. He is listed as 42 years old, Birthdate in New Jersey,
living
in Morgan Twp, Franklin Co, IA and listed as a land owner. He was married
(2nd) to Rebecca Gibson, who was from Gilbert, IA, on 25 Nov 1856.
Their
first son, James Gibson Dodd was Birthdate 9 May 1858 (although the
gravestone
reads 1859-1937) and Death date in 1937 (unmarried). James was a farmer
lived at
Ontario, IA in 1937, which is a small town about 3 miles east of Ames,
IA on
Hwy 30. He was found on the 1900 census of Franklin Co, IA and the
1920
census of Story Co, IA.
