Notes for John Dodson
Note: John Dodson, who was the brother-in-law of Captain John Smith, was in charge of dispensing bread to the passengers during the trip to America. He came on a ship named "Ann" with Captain John Smith and landed at Jamestown , Virginia in 1607

Age about 18. Arrived on Susan Constant, listed on the Virginia musters 1622 and 1624 as at Neck-of-land, Charles City, so survived 1622 massacre and may well have family descendants.
Dods is one of only three 1607 settlers still alive in 1624. He also went with George Percy in the Pinnace when Smith in the Discovery went to visit Powhatan at Werowocomoco, and during the visit, built a house for Powhatan. This would probably have been of the same 'mud and stud' type of dwelling that has been found at Jamestown, and is unique to the East Lincolnshire area.
