CHAPTER III
EDWARD4 DOBYNS (THOMAS3, DANIEL2, DANIELI) AND HIS DESCENDANTS
¶66 EDWARD4 DOBYNS (THOMAS3, DANIEL2, DANIELI) (from ¶40) was the subject of a genealogy tracing his descendants, entitled The Dobyns-Cooper and Allied Families, (DCAF) published in 1908 by Mrs. A.A.P. Ballou and Mr. W.F. Cooper. He was then mistakenly believed to be an emigrant from England. EDWARD4 DOBYNS was apparently born on 7 Dec 1747 in Caroline Co. Va. and died on 3 Apr 1794, probably in Mason Co. Ky.
On 3 Mar 1769 he signed a deed (fn 188) in which he mentioned his father THOMAS3 DOBYNS, late of Caroline Co., his mother FRANCES DAVIS the widow of THOMAS3 DOBYNS and the then wife of JAMES DAVIS, and his sister CATHERINE4 DOBYNS. As is shown in ¶40 in connection with THOMAS3 DOBYNS, it is likely that FRANCES DOBYNS DAVIS was born FRANCES BERRY.
Because of the similarity of names and dates, it seems most likely that EDWARD4 DOBYNS was the same EDWARD as the one on whom the DCAF book was based. For example his son THOMAS5 DOBYNS was probably named after his father THOMAS3 DOBYNS, his son JAMES5 DOBYNS after his stepfather JAMES DAVIS, his daughter CATHERINE5 DOBYNS after his sister CATHERINE4 DOBYNS, and (most important) his son BERRY5 DOBYNS after his mother FRANCES BERRY.
The DCAF book states that EDWARD4 DOBYNS took part in the Revolution with the Third Va. Regiment and was present at the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown. According to one report he married FRANCES KEY (b 3 Oct 1752) on 19 Jan 1770 in King George Co. Va. According to the DCAF book he married FRANCES HOWE, b 6 May 1751, d 29 Jan 1821 in Mason Co. Ky. He is said to have moved first to Culpeper Co. Va. and then to Mason Co. Ky.
