Hi Warren:
I have followed your research of the Dickerson Family,
in which I feel we share several common relatives. At
least, Nathaniel ca 1678, John ca 1712, Martin ca
1745, and David ca 1780. Also, checked out your
Samuel Rice information as David Dickerson married
Nancy Rice, dau. Samuel Rice and unnamed wife. Want
to express my appreciation for your genealogical
research found on RootsWeb.
-----------------------------------------------------
There is an interesting occurrence in the Martin
Dickerson Family. Four sons, David, Lewis, William,
and Fountain all married four of Samuel Rice's
daughters! Surely the families must have lived in
close proximity.
---------------------------------------------------------
Other than your information about Nancy Rice in
the RootsWeb Search Tree, I have the following:
Married: 21 September 1801, David Dickerson,
in Jessamine Co., KY
Father: Martin Dickerson
Mother: Rebecca Stovall
David Dickerson data:
Veteran of the War of 1812
Listed in the 1820 KY Census, Jessamine Co.
Died 1820-1821, Jessamine Co., KY
WILL: C-158, Jessamine Co., KY (have not seen the
transcription yet) from Index at Fort Wayne, IN
Genealogical Library.
---------------------------------------------------------
NOW, THE ONLY THING MISSING IS THE LIST OF DAVID AND
NANCY'S CHILDREN; AS PROBABLE CHILDREN, HAVE MARTIN
DICKERSON, b. 1810; AND VALENTINE, b. 1815. THINK
THIS IS WHERE VALENTINE DICKERSON, b. 3 August 1815,
m. Lucy Ann Jenkins, 12 March 1837, from my husband,
Stan's family FITS INTO THE DICKERSON FAMILY.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
ANY IDEAS ON FINDING DAVID AND NANCY (RICE)
DICKERSON'S CHILDREN IN JESSAMINE CO., KY?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Also, have information about Martin Dickerson's Will
from an Index at the Fort Wayne, IN Genealogical
Library:
WILL: Written 21 July 1810;
Probated August 1811
Book A -- 1799 to 1813, Jessamine Co., KY
page 302.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Would really appreciate hearing from you regarding
whether or not you have already discovered the
children's names or have the transcripts on both David
Dickerson and Martin Dickerson's Wills.
Thanks!
