About Henry Dodge

Moses Henry Dodge was an American politician and military officer who was Democratic member to the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate, territorial governor of Wisconsin and a veteran of the Black Hawk War. His son, Augustus C. Dodge, served as a U.S. senator from Iowa; the two were the first and so far the only father-son pair to serve concurrently in the Senate, which they did from 1848 to 1855.
