Judy Hamm, I am going to respond to your e-mail on the List, because there is an abundant amount of people on the Escambia List that has a lot more research material at hand than I do. I haven't been able to find John A. Dixon in anything that I have. He is not listed in the Santa Rosa Cemetery Book. There are a lot of Dixon's in there. I found only one Dixon in my Escambia County books, and that was Lillie Mae Dixon who died in 1985 . Of course there are a lot of cemetery's that I don't have a record of. Rosie Kersey died a year ago this month. I have a copy of her obit. I have a copy of Mary Dixon and Henry Kersey's marraige license, also a copy of Rosie and Hixon's marraige license. Be glad to send you a copy . I never knew that my Carrolls and the Kersey's were intermarried. In my research, I must have overlooked it. As I told you, my Carrolls came from Red Level Alabama. I will post them at a later time, as this is getting too long. I will look into my possible kin file and see if I can find anything on your Carrolls, which are probably my Carrolls as well. No, I never heard of Porphyria being genetic in the family, but when Rosie got something set in her mind, there was no changing it. Thank you for the information, doris
