Notes:
John Dawson is said to have emigrated from the north of England sometime before 1700. Whether he came from Whitehaven, in Cumberland, or from Yorkshire is uncertain. By some he is said to have gone into Maryland by way of Philadelphia, where he tarried for a while; others understand that he emigrated directly to Maryland.....His death is supposed to have occurred before 1720, from the fact that his son Thomas, who died in 1800, aged 92, and was, consequently, born in 1708, barely remembered the event as one which happened in his childhood. He married Rebecca Doyne, daughter of John Doyne, an Irish gentleman, who had a grant of land on Chickamoxon creek, in Charles county, about thirty miles below the place where the city of Washington now is. They settled on Broad creek, near the Potomac River, about twelve miles below the site of Washington, in Prince George county, where he died. - A Collection of Family Records, Charles C. Dawson, 1874
