William married Amanda E. Hamiter January 06, 1887 in Hempstead County, Arkansas.
They had two children, William Foster Dobson and Maud Rebecca Dobson.
(I've been told that they may have had as many as three infant children who died at birth.)

William Foster Dobson was born November 19, 1889 in Arkansas and died April 20, 1938 in Legion, Texas after falling out of a tree.

Maud Rebecca Dobson was born  June 16, 1893 in Arkansas. She married Grady Lewis Roberts. They moved to California and Maud died September 10, 1954 in Fresno County, California

I believe Amanda E. Hamiter must have died about 1895 in Arkansas. William married Laura Eliza Andrews April 21, 1897 in Cove, (Polk Co) Arkansas. Laura was born May 1876 in Arkansas and died January 07, 1936 Coolidge, Arizona.  William and Laura are both buried at the Mountain View Cemetery, Casa Grande, Arizona.

Together William and Lura had nine children. Their first child was my grandfather....Hoyt Homer Dobson There were 19 years between Hoyt and the youngest child Joseph Gordon Dobson.

As time permits I plan on making a page for each of William's children. It will be easy to make a page on Joseph Gordon Dobson because Joe played professional baseball and there is a lot of information on the internet about him.

I'm in the process of getting a photo of each of William's children. I will be adding more info about William Chambers Dobson and Lura Eliza Andrews to this page. I have put some of the documents online so you can view them.
