Richard Dodge1

b. about 1602, d. June 15, 1671
  • Reference: 3848
  • Richard Dodge was born about 1602 in Somersetshire, England.2
  • He was the son of John Dodge and Margery (?)1
  • Richard married Edith Brayne, daughter of Edward Brayne and Elizabeth (?), on May 5, 1628 in Stoke-sub-Hamdon Parish, Cornwall, England.3
  • Richard Dodge immigrated in 1638 to Salem, Massachusetts, and "desired accommodation." As the King was at that time obstructing emigration, it is probable that he left England without royal permission.

    After living awhile on land of his brother William, he settled on "Dodge Row" in North Beverly, not far east of Wenham Lake. The house he built stood probably where Mr. Lucius B. Dodge lived in the late 19th century very near the present north line of Beverly, or possibly where Mr. H. W. Dodge lived in 1894, a few rods farther east. The farm lately owned by Mr. Lucius B. Dodge was inherited from his father Richard, the son of Deacon Richard b., 1783, who bought it of his father-in-law, Jacob Edwards, b. 1746, by deed dated 23 April, 1819. Apparently the same land was bought by John Edwards, of Edward Dodge, cordwainer, Beverly, 15 March, 1781.

    It had been held in the male line from the death of Richard.' Mr. Lucius B. Dodge said the house then (1894) occupied by Mr. H. W. Dodge was formerly used as a cabinet shop by his father Richard, and by him turned partly around and converted into a dwelling. It is unlikely that either house is as old as 200 years.

    Richard, the immigrant, evidently gave his attention more to farming and the care of his domestic affairs, than to town or church business; although he was a loyal church member, and one of the most liberal contributors to the support of the church. He and his wife Edith were members of the Wenham church before 1648 according to its records, John Fiske being pastor.

    He also had a high appreciation of the value of education, for in 1653, in a list of twenty-one subscribers to Harvard College, his name ranks first, while the next largest sum was only one-fourth as much as his. He dedicated a piece of his land to a burying ground, which, by 1694, was known as the Cemetery on Dodge Row. It was probably inherited by his son Edward, who died in 1727, for in February, 1730-1, the three sons of Edward, by a deed, confirmed the grant to their relatives and neighbors. The near neighbors of Richard were Zechary Herrick who married his daughter Mary, Peter Woodberry who married Sarah, John and Humphrey Woodberry and John Galle.4
  • Richard died on June 15, 1671, leaving an estate valued at the large sum of £1764 2s. He gave his sons John, Richard and Samuel each a good farm, valued in his inventory at over £100 each. To sons Edward and Joseph he gave the home farm, valued at £1000. To his wife Edith he gave certain appropriate personal property, "to be her own absolutely," and gave her "the sole and proper use of the parlor & chamber over it in my now dwelling house,'' and made liberal provision for annual payments to be made to her by her five sons.2
