The only thing I have found so far is a short bio of Henry DODGE found in the 1882 History of Floyd Co. It is as follows:
Henry Dodge, born in Chenango County, N.Y., Sept. 10, 1837, is a son of Martin Dodge (deceased), a native of Vermont. He resided in Rochester, N.Y., till 1854, when he came to Iowa, settling in Chickasaw County, where he lived till 1870, when he came to this county and settled on section 14, Riverton Township. He owns 160 acres, and 15 of timberland, and is engaged in farming and stock-raising. He enlisted in the late war in Company H, Fourth Iowa Cavalry. Was in the battles of Old Town Creek, surrender of General Forrest, and several others. He was married in 1872 to Kate E. Poole. They are the parents of five children - Charles E., Herbert, Horace, Loyal J., and Joseph (deceased).There was an Ira DODGE, who lived in St. Charles Twp. and also came from Chenango Co., New York. Perhaps an Uncle? His children were William B., Dwight, Eliza, and Harriet. Three children died, Charlotte, Luellen, and Mary. Second marriage produced a daughter, Iantha. This Dodge family came to Floyd Co. in 1852.
