Goals
This is a One Name Study to collect together in one place everything about one surname and the variants of that name. The hope is that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect.
We welcome the research of all Wiki Genealogists who are interested in the surnames DOTSON or DODSON.
Task List
1. Work cooperatively together with other Dotson profile managers to create the best Dotson documentation possible.
2. Search out original rather than derivative documentation and add sources to Dotson profiles.
3. Write comprehensive, well-sourced biographies for Dotson profiles.
4. Check for duplicates and request merges.
Starting Points
This is a collection of DOTSON / DODSON research papers done by others. Give full credit for anything used from these superb sources.

Her GGGmother is Alicinda Bladen (nee Dodson) 1830 -1928. Her parents are Thomas E Dodson (~1799-1881) and Nancy "Ann" Keene (Dodson). Thomas and Nancy had eight children and lived in the Lee Township part of Fairfax County on a farm for a long time. The US Census has the family there from 1840-1880. But I can't find Thomas prior to that. There are so many Dodsons throughout virginia, especially in the south central and southwest part of the state. But the Fairfax County / Alexandria contingent is elusive. I see a bunch of references to someone named Thomas IGNATIUS Dodson but I think Thomas and Ignatius are different people. Anyway, any hint in the right direction is most appreciated!
