The Dodge Family Association

Dodge families who have not yet been able to find a paper trail to William, Richard, or Tristram

Anyone who can prove the connection between any of our Mystery Files and a known Dodge line will receive a years membership in the Dodge Family Association and one of our beautiful membership pins pictured here. The Josiah Dodge mystery has now been solved as well as several others. You may also want to look at the page where there are biographical sketches of many of our mystery Dodges.

We have had to put a user name and password on this file to prevent internet search engines from seeing and caching the data. We are publishing that information here so that you can successfully see the file. They are:

The mystery Dodge lines for whom DNA has proved to be in a particular Dodge family have yet to break through that brick wall to find the ancestor who will give them their paper trail. Read about our DNA project

SOLVED! Daniel Dodge/Elizabeth Sternberg - Two descendants of Daniel and ElizabethThis family Volunteered for a DNA test. The results of both, proved that this family descended from the brothers, William and Richard. We have also solved their ancestry back to Richard. This has been moved to our John Branch file.

Daniel Dodge/Nancy Blydenburgh - A descendant of Daniel and Nancy volunteered to donate DNA. The result of the test proved that they are, without a doubt, descendants of Tristram, but we have not yet figured out HOW they fit into that Dodge line. In the "Report of the First Reunion of the Dodge Family in America, pub. 1879," there is a letter written by Thaddeus Dodge gving names of some of the descendants of Daniel and Nancy. He was one himself, but sadly, he never knew from what Dodge line he descended.
