Stephen DODD

Stephen Dodd was born on April 4, 1703 in Newark, NJ to Daniel Dodd and Elizabeth Riggs. He is part of the Mendham Dodds, whose descendants  settled in Western PA and then, some traveled west. Stephen married  Deborah Brown, daughter of Thomas and Elizabeth Brown in Essex, Newark about 1737.

Stephen and Deborah's children were: Lebbeus, Feb. 15, 1739 - March 31, 1816; Thaddeus, March 9, 1740 - May 20, 1793; Daniel, 1745 - Oct. 11, 1824; Parmenas, 1748 - April 28, 1811; Usal*; Elizabeth, 1738 - March 16, 1817; Keziah; Deborah; Abigail; Sarah; and Hannah. I believe that first the sons and then the daughters were listed in chronological order.

Elizabeth married Ebenezer Cooke, son of Daniel Cooke of Mendham, Jan. 5, 1764.

Keziah married Ephriam Sanders of Mendham; their children were: Beviah, Simeon, Daniel, Sarah, Stephen, Cyrus (born 1770), and Asa.

Deborah married William Minthorn in 1771 who died on Nov. 2, 1781 at Yorktown fight.

Abigail married Obed Wright. Sarah married a Mr. Minton.

Hannah married William Brown who had been "killed in Indian troubles".

Lebbeus was a farmer and a soldier. He had married Mary Baldwin, July 9, 1744 - April 9, 1810. Their children were: Hannah, Eunice, Phebe,  Stephen, Abner, Rachael, Mary, Daniel, Abigail, and Elizabeth. Lebbeus and Mary Baldwin's son Daniel married Nancy Squier and their daughter, Susan B. Dodd, wife of David Brown, was the donor of Dodd Hall, in memory of her brother, Albert Baldwin Dodd, and also Brown Hall, in memory of her  husband, David Brown. Both of these halls are located at Princeton University.
Thaddeus became a preacher and lived at Ten Mile, Amity, Washington County. He married Phebe Baldwin, 1747 - Nov. 3, 1829 and they had five children: Sarah, Cephas, Hannah, Mary, and Stephen.

Daniel can also be found at Ten Mile. His children were: Silas, Ithiel, Rufus, Daniel,  Chloe, Jediathen, Rhoda, and Phebe.

Daniel DODD

Daniel Dod, the Surveyor, was born about 1679, at Guilford, and died about 1784, at “Doddtown,” Newark, N.J.  Of this father of the so-called “Mendham Branch,” through his son Stephen, and of the descendants of his son, John, the Carpenter, little in detail of dates has been presented by former genealogists of the Dodd family, especially as to his later years and death.  Prominent as he was in Newark, being at times an elected surveyor of the highways and proficient as a scribe in drawing up legal papers, no man knows his sepulcher to this day.  

The first mention of his name a surveyor found in the Newark town records is on March 14, 1721, the last on March 14, 1732.  He built before 1718, with the famous Dr. Jacob Arents of Newark, a saw mill on the Rahway river, near the present Maplewood in the vicinity of a locality once called Jefferson Village……..Thomas Ball of Newark left on memorandum various surveys by Daniel Dod, in one of which mention is made of Arents and Dod's saw mill.  (See Dodd Genealogy of 1864, p. 133).

Daniel Dod, the surveyor, drew up a deed on Feb. 15, 1721, for his cousin, Daniel Dod, Jr., through which the latter conveyed to his “loving brother, Stephen,” some of the land inherited from there father, Daniel, of Newark.  This deed and others are drawn up by him are in the possession of Miss Pierson, of East Orange.  

Daniel Dod, the surveyor, we believe came to Newark about 1700.  His father, Stephen of Guilford had died Oct. 9, 1691, leaving him half his estate, including his homestead there.  He was then some fourteen years old, and soon after reaching manhood in 1698, he probably came to Newark.  Here in 1701, he joined with a large group of settlers in a project to purchase a tract of land over the “mountains” at Horse Neck, now Caldwell, among the adventurers being his uncles, Daniel and Samuel, who had settled in Newark in 1667.  This agreement is found printed in Berry's “First Presbyterian Church, Caldwell, N. J., appendix A.  

The account book of Israel Baldwin shows sales and services debited to Daniel Dod as late as Oct. 21, 1748, when they cease.  He probably died soon thereafter.  Accounts for his cousin, Daniel of Daniel, are itemized until 1750 under “Daniel, junior”, so there is no confusion.  

In 1741 Daniel and his son Timothy, with George Harrison and Israel Baldwin, were partners in fencing gland over the mountain at Horse Neck, according to this book, which gives information on Daniel not heretofore discovered.  Daniel may or may not have returned to Guilford after several years at Newark to settle affairs of his inheritance, however, Book Two of Deeds, Town Records, Guilford, Conn., records a quite-claim, May 3, 1707, of Daniel Dod, of Newark, Essex County, N. J., to all right and tite to the lands and tenements in Connecticut left him by his father Stephen.  Thenceforth his life and interests were confined to New Jersey.  

He obtained a homestead between the lands of his cousins, Daniel and John, located along the road from Newark to the “Mountain”, now Dodd Street, near Prospect, East Orange, or at least lived there in later life with son Timothy.  His larger holdings were “over the mountain” at Horse Neck, now Caldwell.  He seems to have been less a yeoman than an adventurer in land speculations, and a surveyor and scribe, upon whom his relatives called for legal and other business.

He married, June 17, 1702, Elizabeth, daughter of Joseph and Hannah (Brown) Riggs, of Newark, N. J.  She was a sister of Samuel Riggs, of Joseph, who in his will, Jan. 1, 1710, names Daniel Dod as his brother-in-law.  (N. J. Archives, wills.)  Hannah Brown Riggs and Phebe Brown Dod, wife of Daniel, uncle of Daniel, were sisters, daughters of John Brown and Mary Burwell of Newark.  (Congar's notes, Collection, N.J. Hist. Society).

He was an elected surveyor of the highways Newark, New Jersey.

In 1701, Daniel joined with a group of settlers, including his uncles Daniel and Samuel, to purchase a tract of land over the "mountain" at Horse Neck (now Caldwell). Daniel and Samuel had settled in Newark in 1667.

Sometime before 1718, Daniel built with the famous Dr. Jacob Arents of Newark a saw mill on the Rahway River near Jefferson Village (near present Maplewood).

Daniel Dodd of Newark was the ancestor of the Dodds of Bloomfield and Doddtown, East Orange. He came from Branford about 1668. He was appointed in March, 1678, with Edward Ball, the run the northern line of the town from the Passaic to the First Mountain. The land looked fair to the young man, and he soon thereafter surveyed a tract upon Watsesson Plain, in the valley of the Second River. The Elizabeth Town Bill in Chancery states the fact of his having secured this land. In January 18, 1697, this property and much more in various localities was confirmed to him by the East Jersey proprietors. He was chosen a deputy to the Provincial Assembly in 1692. His children, Daniel, Stephen, John and Dorcas are said to have established homes on various tracts of the Watsesson grant.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Essex County had its start in Newark; with the first settlers being headed by Robert Treat and arriving from Branford Connecticut in May 1666. Treat and his group negotiated with the Indians and purchased their land. The settlers purchased all the land that is now Essex and Union Counties for some wampum, gunpowder, beer, axes, lead, clothing, and 32 gallons of whisky.

Ten years later, the settlers secured deed to the land all the way to the top of Orange Mountain for two more guns, three coats, and 13 containers of rum. Initially the town was know as Milford but by this time the name had changed to Newark.

In 1682, the East Jersey Legislature established Essex County and by that time Newark had a church, an inn, a ferry, a cornmill, and a sawmill.

As time went on more people moved out of Newark into the western portions of the county. Settlements built up around farms and were given the names of the original farmers. Some of the communities were Speertown (now Upper Montclair), Doddtown (now in East Orange), Camptown (now in Irvington) and Morehousetown (now Livingston).  (NOTE:  This is included for my own information - still trying to research the origins of Doddtown, NJ)

Phebe DODD

Phebe, b. 1704; d. July 16, 1768, Morristonw; her stone records death "in the 65th year of her age".  Time of birth, simlarity of famly
names, absence of daughters of Daniel Dod's family in records of earliest genealogies, and the fact that Thaddeus, son of Stephen above {her brother}, studied at Morristown and probably lodged with his Aunt Phebe, and actually was a witness to the will of her husband, Peter Condit, are evidences impelling us to assume she was a daughter of Daniel, the homes of herself and Peter having been not distant in the “Mountain” section of Newark.

Clara Flora DODD

Marriage info and children's names came from a family group sheet prepared by my mother, Laurie Jeanne Karnes Graves.  Source of her information  her mother, Edna Lorena Hanson Karnes, whose mother, Martha Emily Dodd,  was a sister of Clara's.  The one exception is the daughter named Fannie Lee.  Her name is based on an extract from the following letter:

"Mama was born after her folks moved to Arkansas and she was the oldest of that family by Grandpa Dodd.   Mama must have been born about 1878."

Clara Flora Dodd was born in 1878 and the oldest child.  See notes for Emily Jane Dillon for the entire letter.

John Edwin DODD

Source of children's names and birthdates:  his neice Edna Lorena Hanson.

Information provided by Kathy Fisher:
John and Minnie are listed on the 1920 census in Arkansas, White County, Gary Township with 4 children:  Virgil, Arthur, Leddie and S.E.

According to family lore, he died of T.B.

The following notes are from Claudia Tillman:

The 1910 Arkansas Census shows the John E. Dodd family living in White Co., in the Red River Twp., ED 170, house #92.  John E.. was 27, born AR with father born IL and mother born IA.  He was working on a Steamboat.  Minnie H, 29, born MO, with both parents born MO, she had 3 pregnancies with 3 living children.  John and Minnie had been married for 6 years. Children were Virgil, 7, born AR (since from the dates given on the Census, Virgil, was born before John and Minnie were married, he MAY be the son of Sullen?).  Arthur was 5, born AR, and Liddie was 10/12 born AR (Census was taken 30 April 1910).


Minnie Haha FISHER

The following notes are from Claudia Tillman:

According to Fred Fisher (son of Sheldon), Minnie married and had children Arthur and Lois.  The date shown for her marriage to Mr. Sullen is only a guess.  The will of her Grandfather, Anthony, listed her as Minnie Sullens, living in Indison, AR in 1904.  Minnie also  married a Mr. Edleson (first name unknown).

There seems to be no 1900 Census listing for Minnie and Earl Sullens, at least he is not listed in the 1900 Soundex in Arkansas.

The 1910 Arkansas Census shows the John E. Dodd family living in White Co., in the Red River Twp., ED 170, house #92.  John E.W. was 27, born AR with father born IL and mother born IA.  He was working on a Steamboat.  Minnie H, 29, born MO, with both parents born MO, she had 3 pregnancies with 3 living children.  John and Minnie had been married for 6 years.  Children were Virgil, 7, born AR (since from the dates given on the Census, Virgil, was born before John and Minnie were married, he MAY be the son of Sullen?).  Arthur was 5, born AR, and Liddie was 10/12 born AR (Census was taken 30 April 1910).

Kathy Fisher found John E. Dodd and wife Minnie listed in the 1920 Census for Arkansas  in White Co., Gray Twp., ED 167, page 1B.  John E. was age 38, born AR.  Minnie was 38, born MO. Children listed were Virgil, 16, born MO; Arthur, 14, born AR; Effie, 10, born AR; and daughter S.E., age 6, born AR.  John was employed as an engineer for Searcy Cotton Oil (or so it appears).   The Family was living on Judsonia Road in White County. This Census data conflicts with the family information given by Fred Fisher (children listed as Arthur and Lois, and Lois is NOT shown on Census records, so she is not listed here).


Virgil DODD

Virgil is listed on the 1910 and 1920 census as a son of John E. Dodd and Minnie, but he was born before they were married.  It is suspected that Virgil was a son of Minnie's first marriage to Earl Sullens.  Did John adopt him?
