Kathie, I took another look at these records and I have a note
on Joseph DODDS, same fello mentioned before, as:
!BOOK: The Archives of Butler Co., Pa by Diana Marie Voltz Geibe
maybe you can gleen more from this source. This is all I have
noted wished I would have put more down, perhaps someone out
there can help add to this source with the details from her book.

I sure wish I could place him in the DODDS family, as they are
one of my direct lines. Oh, just where is his burial in the WOS cemetery?
I have several in that cemetery and his place might be a clue of his wife's
surname
or his relationship to others.

Please keep me informed of your findings.
