The Broad Run Baptist Church in Fauquier County, Virginia, was constituted December 3, 1762 with the following ten members: Edmond Hayes, Peter Cornwell, Joshua Dodson, Thomas Dodson, William Dodson, Williams Stamps, deceased, Elizabeth Hayes, Sarah Cornwell, Elizabeth Dodson, Ruth Dodson, and Betty Bennett. Quite a number of Dodsons and other early family members belonged to this church. I am assuming that this church was associated with the Primitive Baptist or “hardshell” Baptist faith, since that was the faith of the earliest Dodsons that I am aware of (although Charles Dodson, Sr. of North Farnham Parish very probably belonged to the Anglican Church, which was the recognized church of the early colonists). This material is fascinating reading and gives insights into the lives of the members. Many times letters are issued to members transferring or "removing" to new and distant locations. The reader may also be entertained by the “successes” and “failures” of human nature reflected in the church’s dealings with its communicants.
First I am including on this page some links to other web sites which have abstracts of the minutes of the Broad Run Baptist Church, but what I am attempting to include is an almost complete listing of the Broad Run Baptist Church minutes from what was sent to me several years ago by Libbie Griffin.
Many thanks to Barbara Baber for supplying me with some additional web sites that mention the Broad Run Baptist Church which I have included in my listing below.
An abstract of the DODSON surname found in these minutes (1762-1780) is listed on page 1399 of The Dodson (Dotson) Family of North Farnham Parish, Richmond County, Virginia: A History and Genealogy of their Descendants. Mrs. Sherman Williams, compiler and editor. Rev. Silas Emmett Lucas, Jr., publisher. Easley, SC: Southern Historical Press, 1988. 2 Vols.
An abstract of the SHIRLEY surname in these minutes (from pages 6-11 only, covering 1767-1776 only) are found at this web site:
I also found reference to another Broad Run Baptist Church located in Lewis County, Virginia, that was organized in 1804 and was named after the Broad Run Baptist Church in Fauquier County, Virginia:
Several had asked about the records of this early church in Virginia where the Dodson, Neville and Hanks and related families all attended. Other web sites have some abstracts of the Broad Run Baptist Church minutes, but this seems to be the most complete listing that I can find.
Also, of interest is the mention of the baptism of a Nancy Hanks found on page 13 of the original minute book, and dated June 13, 1778; however, after further checking, I find that this Nancy Hanks could not have been the mother of President Abraham Lincoln. His mother was born on the 5 February 1784 in Campbell County, Virginia. Now, which Nancy Hanks could she be?? This Nancy Hanks was born much earlier.
If interested in the Hanks family, you may be interested in this site: “Will the real Nancy Hanks Lincoln please stand up?” This source lists 46 Nancy Hankses born in America between 1780 and 1866:

It is 86 pages. It has been brought to my attention that pages 97 thru about 105 are missing from this and from my copy. I'm working on obtaining those pages and will send them if I get them. Pay particular attention to the last couple of pages, where the births are listed. Libbie Griffin ________________ "Minutes of Broad Run Baptist Church, Fauquier Co., Va., 1762-1872." 60 pp., taken from a photocopy of "Genealogical Record" Vol 7, No. 3, Sept. 1965 through Vol. 9, No. 4, Dec.1967. The "Genealogical Record" was published by Houston Genealogical Forum, Houston, Texas. This was found by Mary Gregg at the Texas State Library in Austin, Texas. The first 35 pages were posted on the Prodigy Genealogy Bulletin Board. People who have already read those pages can find the beginning of the new part by searching for the word PRODIGY which will take you to the end of the posted part. This file is 86 pages long. It contains the entire transcript of the Broad Run Baptist Church, Fauquier Co., Va. Particular attention should be given to the last two pages, where early birth records from the 1760s are appended. This is the way this record was published. Please note that because this was scanned from old typewritten text, some scanning errors undoubtedly have slipped by. The text from which this was scanned was typed on a typewriter that used large and small upper case letters, which resulted in this scan being all uppercase letters. Also, the scanner tends to make these errors which may have slipped by: ones and zeros are read as I's and O's, and vice versa. The letters TH, when they appear together, were often read as M, and if all the Ms weren't found, they may be confusing. The slash marks (/) that appear throughout this text were inserted by the original transcriber to denote the end of lines in the original. That transcriber put her comments in parentheses; mine [Libbie Griffin’s] are in brackets. From THE GENEALOGICAL RECORD Published Quarterly by The Houston Genealogical Forum, Houston, Texas. Volume VII, Number 3, September 1965: MINUTES OF THE BROAD.RUN.BAPTIST CHURCH NEAR WARRENTON, FAUQUIER COUNTY, VIRGINIA 1762-1872 "Foreword: With this issue of The Record, The Houston Genealogical Forum begins serial publication of the minutes of the Broad Run Baptist Church. For permission to reproduce and publish the minutes, The Forum hereby expresses its gratitude to Lt. Col. And Mrs. Richard H. Klitch, 618 Infantry Post Road, Fort Sam Houston, Texas. The minutes are a copy of the original in two notebooks owned by Mrs. Klitch nee Helen Jeffries, formerly of Warrenton, Virginia. The copy was handed down to Mrs. Klitch from her father, Charles Edward Jeffries (decd. And in turn from his father, Joseph Arthur Jeffries (decd.), both of Warrenton. Both Messrs. Jeffries fostered lifelong interest in the history of Warrenton and Fauquier County. And both were accounted as the principal historians of the area. For many years in the early 1900s, Mr. Joseph Jeffries authored a local and family history column in the Warrenton newspaper under the literary name of Aitocs, a reverse spelling for his family farm, Scotia. Exactly how Mr. Jeffries came into possession of the copy of the minutes is unknown. Whether the original or other copies are elsewhere in existence is also unknown. Although the majority of readers may never find an ancestor in the minutes, they will find it instructive to become more familiar with this valuable but little used type of genealogical source, and will be entertained by the "successes" and "failures" of human nature reflected in the church's dealings with its communicants. Of major historical interest are the baptismal record of Nancy Hanks (page 13), the mother of Abraham Lincoln, and the record of others of the Hanks family. [Note: this could not be the Nancy Hanks who was the mother of the president. She was not born until 5 February 1784 in Campbell County, Virginia. The entry is for a Nancy Hanks who was baptized in 1778-ggohr] The minutes are reproduced in exact form without alteration of abbreviations, misspelling, punctuation, etc. "Questionable interpretations of handwriting are so labeled. Where remarks and genealogical data have been written in the margins by Mr. Joseph Jeffries, mostly about his own relatives, these have been so indicated. Page numbers of the source notebooks are shown. In the lists of baptisms shown, statements of dismissal, decease, excommunication, etc. are undoubtedly entries added to the original minutes at a later date by the clerk. A xerox copy of the notebooks is on file at the Houston Public Library.(Editor's note-Mr. Robert L. Kite, member of the Houston Genealogical Forum, brought the minutes to our attention and prepared the interesting foreword. To indicate the lines of copy in the original notebooks, diagonal (/) marks have been employed in this genealogical record series.)"
