Descendants of
John Todd d 1774/1775 Chester Co PA
Todd Family 18
Richard McMurtry inherited this descendancy chart when
he began researching the Chester County PA Todds. It contains some excellent information and
many errors and omissions. I have
attempted to add some of the missing lines and correct some of the errors. It is a good introduction to this
family. This family includes John Todd, the Quaker
Attorney who married Dorothy Payne (later Dolly Madison) who died in the Yellow
Fever epidemic of 1793 in Philadelphia.
Included below is a link to a portrait of John’s brother James Todd.
DNA obtained in 2022 revealed that this family had
County Armagh origins.

"The Story
of Dorothea Payne (Dolley Madison)
After her Quaker parents moved from Virginia to
Philadelphia, Dorothea
Payne, 22 years old, married John Todd, Jr. under the
care of Pine Street
Meeting. He was
the son of a Quaker schoolmaster and a rising young
lawyer. They
bought a house which is still standing at Fourth and Walnut
Streets.
For three years all went well. Then came the yellow fever epidemic of
1793. John Todd
and both his parents died. So did one of
the two sons
which had been born to the young couple. Dorothea survived, a widow with a
young child.
Within a year a new chapter in her life began. Philadelphia
was then the capital of the new nation. The President and
Martha Washington lived only two blocks away from the
Todd home. Congress
and the Supreme Court were sitting at the State
House. The social life of
the city was astir with
distinguished personages from all the states.
One
day, Dorothea Todd sent an excited message to her
friend, Eliza Lee: "Thee
must come to me.
Aaron Burr says the great
little Madison has asked to be brought to see
me."
Aaron Burr was United States Senator from New York,
and James Madison,
"Father of the Constitution" was a
Congressman from Virginia. He was 17
years older than Dorothea, but before the year was out they were
married. They moved to Washington when the new
"Federal City" was ready,
Madison serving as Secretary of State under President
Thomas Jefferson.
Since Jefferson was a widower, Dorothea Payne Todd
Madison was called upon
to be White House hostess. She won a reputation for her charm and grace,
serving throughout Jefferson's two terms and then
as the nation's First Lady for eight more years when
James Madison
succeeded Jefferson as President. Dorothea was almost
always called by her
nickname, but she had a habit of spelling it two diferent ways - sometimes
"Dolley" and
sometimes "Dolly". When her
little brick house in
Philadelphia was made part of Independence National
Historical Park,
historians of the National Park Service studied all
the available documents
and concluded that the preferred spelling is "Dolley."

The Powell/Todd marriage record, from Quaker records
is not in question.
Nor are the Quaker records that indicate the removal
of Ann and her
daughters from Pennsylvania to N. Carolina. Those records are available
and are well recognized as primary source
materials. But there is no
Quaker record for John or any sons transferring their
membership from
Pennsylvania to North Carolina. In fact, John had been disowned by the
Quakers. And no
one has been able to find a will for John Powell, nor for
Ann Todd Powell, and without one or more of those
documents, evidence of
any sons is somewhat shakey, especially Benjamin and Hugh. We are not
even absolutely sure of Abraham, though he has been
generally accepted.
There is convincing evidence, from one line of
descendants, that Joseph
Powell was the son of John and Ann.
