Subject: [NCMECKLE-L] DOBSON in Charlotte
Date: Sun, 3 Jan 1999 20:56:27 -0500


Hi. I am new to this list. First of all, am I right in presuming (I
checked this out on a map once) that CHarlotte, NC is in Mecklenburg County?
If not, well....sorry, but what county is it in?
If it is in Mecklenburg...I have a question for anyone that will answer it.
Here is my story...
My great grandfather (REGINALD DOBSON) was said to have re-located to
Charlotte, NC in approximately 1912. He would have had his son
(approximately 5 years of age at that time- named GERARD HAROLD DOBSON) and
his wife (at least I believe that they were married)...by the name of
MARGARET MARY (DUNN). ALso Reginald's mother (name unknown). Reginald was
said to have been a doctor. He probably was still a doctor when they were
residing in North Carolina. Is there a City Directory in existence for
CHarlotte, NC for the years: 1912, 1913, 1914, 1915, 1916 and 1917. If
there was, or is...would someone be willing to lookup the DOBSON name. and
forward any information about ANY Dobson to me? My email address is

I have been running into brickwalls with REGINALD and it's getting
frustrating. I live in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Looking forward to hearing from
someone on the list.
Sincere thanks.
