I would be remiss if I did not pass along a research finding. A very trusted source for the Dodge family is the Dodge Family Association.org. As this source stands, it shows different birth and death dates. I see the gravestone photo published by Find A Grave and understand that Find A Grave is also a trusted site. All I can do without some major Vital Records is show you different dates by the Dodge Association. Born 26 Jan 1845 Delaware, Defiance, Ohio sourced to 1880 Census Newville Indiana. Died 27 Nov 1880 in Sherwood, Defiance County, Ohio. Unable to advance this research. Feel free to comment / modify or remove note. (Wood-15631).
