1650
Dorothy Dod was the daughter
of George and Dorothy Dod (DOD00091) and may have been born
in or about 1650. Though if she was a
widow in 1666, she was probably born much earlier.

(Indenture made on the first day of February 1678 (or
1667 of Charles II’s reign counted as starting as from the death of Charles I)
between William Dod the Younger of Buerton in the County of Chester, Gentleman,
and Dorothy Dod of Highfields, widow, and John Sanford of Falsgreen,
yeoman, regarding Cooks Green Estate, Baker Records 14). 18 Charles II is now generally recognised
as 1666.

of Milton, Herefordshire, perhaps in about 1670.
