I too would be interested. I am working on the Faglie/Faglier family and there are connections with the Dixon Family. This slip of paper that you have is a great find. I start Dixon line with a Thomas Dixon, about 1690 Isle of Wight, Va. My Olin Dixon is the son of Joseph Newton Dixon. He was born 26 Apr 1910 and died 20 Dec 1999 . Any additional help appreciated.
