#1. Joel Dodge b. 1761, s. of Daniel; Joel was a Revolutionary War Veteran
#2. Sarah Brewster wife of Joel
#3. Cyrus Dodge, s. of Joel and Sarah

A tragic story about Cyrus. Apparently, he was an innkeeper in Philadelphia, New York. On July 4th, 1829, in what has been described as an act of youthful wrecklessness, he and several others hastily loaded a canon in the village with powder, rocks, and dirt. When they lit the fuse, the canon exploded, killing Cyrus instantly.
