Event Notes Note (1) In household of daughter & son-in-law Rebecca & Israel Duckworth. Note (2) The exact date and location of Jackson Dawson's death have not been determined. Though severely injured, he reportedly survived the house fire of Sep 25 1856 in which all his children perished. However, we know from Doddridge County Deed Book records that on Dec 22 1856, Eliza & Benjamin B. Dawson sold Jackson Dawson's 150-acre property on Dotson Run, Central District, to George W. Kidlow. In the next few years, several other of Jackson Dawson's properties were also sold by others. The Dotson Run property had been purchased by Jackson Dawson from John, Sarah and Philip Llewellyn on May 3 1855.Name Index
