    1. Re: [FLESCAMB] John Alexander Dixon
    2. Vanessa, Thanks for the offer of sending me a copy of the Bible records on Francis Dixon. I would love to have it even though I don't descend from him but his brother Eli. I have copied your post and will keep your info in my records. After reading your note on the 2 death dates for Martha Ann Cobb Dixon, I started looking at my records to see what I have documentation on. Here's what I have: Keep in mind that Escambia Co. AL was cut from Conecuh Co in 1868. I have a copy of the marriage records from Brewton, Esc. Co. AL for all Dixon marriages. I went to the courthouse and a worker xeroxed the Marriage books for me. In Book A page 175 there is a license for F.F. Dixon to Mary J. Cobb on 6 Jul 1885. I made a mistake in my last post and put 1883. My subsequent research proved to me that this was Francis F. Dixon s/o John and Martha Peavy Dickson. and Mary J. was Mary Jane Maine Cobb. I have a copy of the cemetery book "Headstones and Heritage's" for Esc Co. AL but I could not find where Martha Ann or Francis was buried. Do you know? I do not believe that Francis middle name was Marion. In some records I show his middle name to be Alexander but I at this time I can't tell you where I got that. His brother Berryman Dixon had a son named Francis Marion b. 1856. Can you tell me the first name of the Mims that Florida Alice Dixon was supposed to have married? In my Uncle Abe Dixon's family Bible he has the children of Francis Dixon listed. Since there are only a few pages left of this Bible I don't know why Francis family is listed or if there were a lot more relatives listed and the pages lost. It lists Florida A. Dixon married Thomas Morrell on 19 Dec 1872. I will be happy to research the books I have and see if I can come up with anything for you. Judi Hamm 7108 Joy Street Pensacola, FL. 32504 850-478-0491
