The ancestry of the Dodsons of Richmond, Pittsylvania, Halifax, Henry, and Patrick Counties of Virginia, has definitely been traced back to Charles Doson of Old Rappanhannock County, Virginia and it seems quite probable that all of the early Dodson families of this section of Virginia were descendants of this Charles Dodson.

Anne had remarried by 3 July 1706, on which date John Hill and wife, executrix of the last Will and Testament of Charles Dodson, dec'd petitioned the court for an appraisment of the estate. the court ordered John Rankin, William Smoote, John Mills and Richard White, or any three of them, to meet at the house of John Hill and appraise and inventory the estate and report to the next court. Thomas Dodson brought an action in court "against John Hill marrying the Executirx of Charles Dodson". The action was dismissed by the court on 3 April 1707, "the plaintiff not prosecuting". The reason for this court action was not explained.
