You could do a lot worse than throwing a dart at the first sheet of this spreadsheet : http://dripinvesting.org/tools/U.S.Divid...mpions.xls
MO and JNJ seem like a good place to start.
Edit:
Lewys, I had a much longer Edit written out but don't have the time right now to say everything I'd like. From your posts over the last month it still seems you need to do quite a bit more work to internalize what it is you're trying to accomplish with your investing. Some of the statements I've read of yours are either way off base or simply not grounded in fact ( AAPL a growth company? MSFT P/E 18 as expensive? )
I'll point you to this post as basically square 1 of DGI: http://www.dividendgrowthinvestor.com/20...tocks.html
Couple that article with the spreadsheet linked above and there won't be too much room for improvement.
