Owen, Alabama Department of Archives and History, 1911. (2) Alabama Historical Quarterly, Winter, 1944, by the Alabama Department of Archives and History. (3) Donald B. Dodd and Wynelle S. Dodd, Winston: An Antebellum and Civil War History of a Hill County of North Alabama; Annals of Northwest Alabama, 4 Vols. Birmingham: Oxmoor Press, 1972. Dr. Donald B. Dodd was a history professor of mine at Auburn University at Montgomery. He taught my wife and me (Eunice and Ron Bridges) several history courses. He was an excellent professor, who taught his students tenacious and persistent research, free thinking, and above all - an open mind with a healthy sense of skepticism. Thank you Dr. Dodd! Your influence continues in our lives as well as our children.
