Death: Aug. 23, 1863
Allegheny County
Pennsylvania, USA
George and Sarah (Brunger) Dodd ran the "Hare and Hounds" Pub in Westwell, Kent, England from 1828-1841.
Immigration: George Dodd and his family travelled on the British ship "Gladiator," which left from London 10 Nov 1838 and arrived in New York 23 Dec 1838. They were listed by the surname of "Andrews" rather than "Dodd" (this was the maiden name of his mother). Here is how the family was listed: George, 41 Sarah, 41 John Frederick, 22 John, 19 Mary, 17 George, 17 Elizabeth, 14 Sarah, 12 Ezekiel, 10 Sophia, 8 Barbara, 6 Hannah, 1 [National Archives, New York, 1820-1850 Passenger & Immigration Lists; New York, Registers of Vessels Arriving at the Port of New York from Foreign Ports, 1789-1919; Micropublication M237, Roll 37, List 733.]
He was buried in Pine Creek Cemetery and moved to Greenwood on February 23, 1882.
Document dated Jan. 18, 1888:
"George Frederick Dodd was born 26 Dec 1791 and died 23 Aug 1863. His wife Sarah Ann Brunger was born 24 Dec 1794 and died in 1876. There (sic) children: Barbara b c 1818, died of measles. Mary Ann b 1824 (lived in Sharpsburgh), married Johnston Mahew in 1842. She died in1882 from cancer. Sarah born 12 Mar 1827 and died in 1886. She married twice. Once to a Smith and 2nd to James Walker. Israel was born 1832 and died at 13 months. Lizzie and some others were in a field burning stubble when his clothes caught fire. John born c Dec 1820 George Frederick b 29 Jan 1822 and was still living in 1888 (died 20 Oct 1903 at Jeannette, PA). He was a butcher in Brookville, PA. Barbara was born 4 Apr 1833 and died 1882. She married Edward West. Sophia born c 1831 and married a James Smith.' The paragraph on Ezekiel is as follows: 'Ezekiel Dodd was born about 1829, died about 1859 from abuse and neglecting himself. his children live at Gentryville, Indiana. One of his sons is about 29 years of age and is blind. His daughter is also living at the same place and married to a man by the name of Armstrong.'
Crime has been a welcome stranger in our family, not one of my Paters has ever been imprisoned or detected in any crime. As far as I can find out, my ancestors were always in comfortable circumstances and always respected. My mothers parents were born in Westwell, Kent County, England. There (sic) parents were also born in England but I do not know just where. They lived on a farm of 17 acres for many years, lying on what is known as the Chalk Hills, Westwell, Kent County. He raised hops, principally and sold them, with this he kept an Inn, something like what you will find in any small town of England today. Here they raised a large family of 11 children, my mother being the youngest. She was 2 years old when they all started for America. The Laws of England were then very hard on poor people and the poor man had no re-dress but to defend himself. My grandfather did defend himself once and that almost at the expense of going to prison for a few years; The old Blue Laws of England forbade the killing of any deer if they should ever break loose from any of the Gentlemen's parks, no matter what the damage might be. The law said you must chase the deer away. With such a loose law consequently many loose hedges were allowed to grow wild and the deer having both good eyes and good 'smellers' would see a hole in the hedge and many a pretty garden would be the sufferer. A great many deer used to pasture off my grandfather's garden and he would chase them away but they were so tame they would come back again. He grew very despondent and finally came to the conclusion that the laws were not for him, so he took the matter into his own hands and the next time 'mister deer' came visiting he landed in grandfather's garden but not on the vegetables; he landed on a pitchfork placed in regular position for him. Thus ended the deer. He took him to the house and very carefully prepared him for eating. It happened that while they were cooking him an officer came in and nearly scared my grandmother into a fit. The officer did not smell him and he was eaten without gloves a la French. After this deer did not bother him so much. This is only one of many inconveniences a man with a large family had to endure under the old English laws. It was no wonder he wanted to breathe the free air of America...Thinking to better himself in America, George F. and Sarah A. Dodd, his wife, started for America with their 11 children. My mother was 2 years of age. They left England on the sailing vessel 'Gladiator' about 11-10-1838 and after 6 weeks of fair weather arrived in New York harbor. They left the ship on December 24th. The ground was covered with snow. Their accommodations were in the second cabin (steerage) which held 40 persons. They all brought their own provisions. Our folks ran out and had to buy food from the captain. John and George washed dishes and milked cows in payment. The voyage cost 5 pounds for adults and 2 1/2 pounds for children. Everything seemed very dear to them in America for flour was $12 a barrel in New York. Wages were low and I suppose it would not have taken much for them to return to the old country. They wandered around New York for 6 weeks, and spent all their spare money. They then met a man named Baker who had a farm in Wheeling and wanted some one to rent it from him. So they all packed up and went over the old canal for Wheeling. Here they stayed for 3 years. Then they lived in a yellow house on Butler Street in Pittsburgh for 1 year. The boys all worked out at whatever they could get. From here they moved to a garden in Pine Creek. Then to a farm owned by the Ross family, about 30 feet from the old canal. (West Penn R.R. now). Here they lived in a log house of 4 rooms for about 9 years. Grandfather George F. Dodd died at his daughter Mary's house on the Ross farm where Joseph Weichel now lives. (A mile from the old home) I never saw either of my grandfathers and only my one grandmother (my mothers mother) who I remember well. She was very stout and never very sick until she died. She lived with her daughter Sarah, and every time I would visit her she would give me a piece of candy. In return I would thread her needles for her. She died as a result of a fall from her bed and is buried in the Uniondale Cemetery in Aunt Sarahs lot. George Frederick Dodd was born 12-26 about 1794 and died 8-23-1863. As long as my mother can remember he had a wart or mole on the end of his nose. Later in life it became very sore and seemed to spread all over his head like cancers. This plus rheumatism caused his death at about 72 years. His wife was Sarah Ann Brunger 12-24 about 1794 and died at 82 years of age. They were both 21 years old when married in 1815. Their children were Barbara, John, George Frederick, Mary Ann, Elizabeth, Sarah, Ezekiel, Sophia, Israel, Barbara and Hannah. Eleven in all." [Hannah West, 18 Jan 1888 Document]

Blanche of Lancaster (25 March 1342 – 12 September 1368) was a member of the English royal House of Plantagenet and the daughter of the kingdom's wealthiest and most powerful peer, Henry of Grosmont, 1st Duke of Lancaster. She was the first wife of John of Gaunt, the mother of King Henry IV, and the grandmother of King Henry V of England.[1]
Lineage
Blanche was born on 25 March 1342, according to her father's inquisitions post mortem.[3] She is also said to have been born as late as 1347, but this has been called into question as that would mean she had her first child at only about age 13.[4]
She was the younger daughter of Henry of Grosmont, 1st Duke of Lancaster and his wife Isabel de Beaumont. She and her elder sister Maud, Countess of Leicester, were born at Bolingbroke Castle in Lindsey. Maud married Ralph de Stafford and then William I, Duke of Bavaria;[1] however, Maud left no surviving children so upon her death her younger sister inherited the entirety of her father's titles and very considerable estates.
Marriage
The Marriage of John of Gaunt and Blanche of Lancaster in Reading Abbey on 19 May 1359 by Horace Wright (1914), The Museum of Reading.[5]
On 19 May 1359, at Reading Abbey, Reading, Berkshire, Blanche married her third cousin, John of Gaunt, third son of King Edward III. The whole royal family was present at the wedding, and the King gave Blanche expensive gifts of jewellery.[6]
The title Duke of Lancaster became extinct upon her father's death without male heirs in 1361. However, John of Gaunt became Earl of Lancaster, Earl of Derby, Earl of Lincoln and Earl of Leicester (although Gaunt did not receive all of these titles until the death of Blanche's older sister, Maud, in 1362) as he was married to Blanche. The Duchy of Lancaster (second creation) was later bestowed on Gaunt. The influence associated with the titles would lead him to become Lord High Steward.
Jean Froissart described Blanche (following her death) as "jone et jolie" ("young and pretty").[7] Geoffrey Chaucer described "White" (the central figure in his Book of the Duchess, believed to have been inspired by Blanche: see below) in such terms as "rody, fresh, and lyvely hewed", her neck as "whyt, smothe, streght, and flat", and her throat as "a round tour of yvoire": she was "bothe fair and bright", and Nature's "cheef patron [pattern] of beautee".[8]
Gaunt and Blanche's marriage is widely believed to have been happy, although there is little solid evidence for this. The assumption seems to be based on the fact that Gaunt chose to be buried with Blanche, despite his two subsequent marriages, and on the themes of love, devotion and grief expressed in Chaucer's poem (see below) – a rather circular argument, as it is partly on the basis of these themes that the couple's relationship is identified as the inspiration for the poem. Blanche and Gaunt had seven children, three of whom survived infancy.
The tomb of Blanche and John of Gaunt in St. Paul's Cathedral, as represented in an etching of 1658 by Wenceslaus Hollar. The etching includes a number of inaccuracies, for example in not showing the couple with joined hands.
Death and commemoration
Blanche died at Tutbury Castle, Staffordshire, on 12 September 1368 while her husband was overseas.[9] Froissart reported that she died aged about 22.[7]
It is believed that she may have died after contracting the Black Death, which was rife in Europe at that time. Her funeral at St. Paul's Cathedral in London was preceded by a magnificent cortege attended by most of the upper nobility and clergy. John of Gaunt held annual commemorations of her death for the rest of his life and established a joint chantry foundation on his own death.[10]
In 1373, Jean Froissart wrote a long poem, Le Joli Buisson de Jonece, commemorating both Blanche and Philippa of Hainault (Gaunt's mother, who had died in 1369).
It may have been for one of the anniversary commemorations of Blanche's death that Geoffrey Chaucer, then a young squire and mostly unknown writer of court poetry, was commissioned to write what became The Book of the Duchess in her honour. Though Chaucer's intentions can never be defined with absolute certainty, many believe that at least one of the aims of the poem was to make John of Gaunt see that his grief for his late wife had become excessive, and to prompt him to try to overcome it. The poem tells the story of the poet's dream. Wandering a wood, the poet discovers a knight clothed in black, and inquires of the knight's sorrow. The knight, perhaps representing Gaunt, is mourning a terrible tragedy, which may mirror Gaunt's own extended mourning for Blanche.
In 1374, six years after her death, John of Gaunt commissioned a double tomb for himself and Blanche from the mason Henry Yevele. The magnificent monument in the choir of St Paul's was completed by Yevele in 1380, with the assistance of Thomas Wrek, having cost a total of £592. Gaunt himself died in 1399, and was laid to rest beside Blanche. The two effigies were notable for having their right hands joined. An adjacent chantry chapel was added between 1399 and 1403.[10]
Issue
Blanche and John of Gaunt together had seven children, of whom three survived to adulthood:
Philippa of Lancaster (31 March 1360 – 19 July 1415), wife of John I of Portugal.
John of Lancaster (c.1362/1364); died in early infancy.
