Individual Details

John DIXON

(Bet May 1845 and 1850 - 2 Dec 1931)

Not 100% positive the 1880 census is this family because they omitted the given names of the three children, but ages are close, except George is listed as 6/12 instead of a newborn.

He is probably the son of Alexander Dixon, who is son of the early settler, John Dixon.

The probate found selling property for him by guardian, as an "imbecile" may be him. Wife's name in the documents was Mary J.
