Dodge Was Born Around 1860 Near Tsíhootsooí Fort Defiance Into The Ma'ii Deeshgiizhnii Clan; His Father Was Naakaii Dine'é Of Mexican Ancestry. There Is Speculation That He Was Actually Born Three Years Earlier And That He Was The Son Of Indian Agent Henry L. Dodge Known In Navajo As Bi'éé' Lichíí'. During The Long Walk Of 1864 Dodge Got Separated From His Mother Was Taken In By A Family Who Found Him Wandering Around As An Orphan2 And He Was Subsequently Raised By His Aunt.3 As His Step-Uncle Was Anglo-American The Young Chee Quickly Became Fluent In English And Eventually Replaced Jesus Arviso As The Official Navajo Interpreter To The U.S. Military.

When He Became The First Chairman Of The Navajo Business Council In 1922 Dodge Managed To Secure Over One Million Dollars In Royalties For The Navajo Nation But Caved To Demands For Giving Oil-Drilling Rights To Anglo-Companies. Most Navajos Were Unaware Of The Council's Existence And Its Main Function Was To Rubber-Stamp The Decisions Of The Local Indian Commissioner. In 1924 He Became A Citizen Of The United States. In 1942 He Was Elected Chairman Of The Navajo Tribal Council And Served Until 1946. During His Tenure He Lobbied For Improved Education Opportunities For Navajo Children And Traveled To Washington To Convince The Federal Government To Secure More Funding. In The Subsequent Election Of 1946 Dodge Was Chosen As Vice-Chairman But Died In January 1947 At The Age Of 863 Or 874 Before The Sixth Tribal Council Convened And He Could Take Office; Zhealy Tso Was Appointed Vice-Chairman In His Stead.
