Individual Details

Mary Dickerson

(1794 - )



Kentucky Marriages, 1802-1850, database at Ancestry.com, has a marriage for Mary Dickerson to John Sergent, 2 May 1809, Campbell Co KY. They were married by Thos. Griffing. This date when compared with the 1850 census is a bit confusing - they would have been only 13 years old when they married which is highly unlikely. They had probably lost track of their ages by 1850.
A descendant with a family tree on Ancestry has given her a birth year of 1791. However, this date of birth is also found in a file on WorldConnect that has erroneously placed Mary in a very different family.

There were more children in this family than I have been able to identify.
