References: 
Fleetwood Berry (1912 A), 3. He mistakenly gives the month as Febr, and gives the spelling of the second name as "Dodgeworth". There is however no "e" in the name. Hardiman (1820), 226 lists a Luke Dodgworth as a sheriff in 1765. This person may have been a relative of Edward.

Notes: 

This is a R.S.. The Inc'd. Ins. is beginning to flake away. There is a gap between the "1" and "ife" of the word life. See also No. 187 for another Thomas.
