General Notes: Husband - Levi L. Dodd
He was born in Washington County, Pennsylvania, and in his early infancy was carried to Mercer County, where his parents had located on a farm. There he grew up, and as a boy assisted in cultivating the paternal acres until the age of eighteen, when he went to Plaingrove, Lawrence County, to learn the trade of a cabinet maker. After acquiring a knowledge of his trade he was united in marriage. Soon after this he removed to Cooperstown, Pennsylvania, and in 1824 moved to Franklin to make his home. He was an elder in the church and a valuable laborer in the Sabbath school, and long stood almost alone as an active, praying man in the church.
He was an elder in the Franklin Presbyterian church more than fifty years.
The following letter from Judge Galbraith, of Erie, is so full of appreciation of the days that are no more, that we cannot keep it from the reader:
Erie, Pa., May 11, 1877.
"REV. DR. S. J. M. EATON\emdash My Dear. Sir: Our courts are now in session, and to continue during next week, or I should certainly make it a point to be present at the reunion to which your kind letter refers. Such occasions do not happen so often that we can afford to miss them. Mr. Levi Dodd was my Sunday school teacher when I was a very little boy, and I cannot remember the time when I did not know him. One of my earliest recollections relates to his family. His residence was close by the out-let lock, and during its construction Mr. Dodd's little son, only three or four years old, fell in and was drowned. The circumstance made a deep impression upon me. I can recall as vividly as if it had been but yesterday, the face of the poor child as it lay in its coffin.
To him and his wife were born eight children.
General Notes: Wife - Julia Ann Parker
She was the foster daughter of Rev. Dr. Samuel Tait, then of Mercer, Pennsylvania.
