I have never heard of any Documentation to substanuate her being a DICKSON. Also heard that she could have been Indian. It any documentation turns up I would really like to know because this really leaves a hole in my "tree" and the research that I have done on the DICKSONS haven't helped me much. Pat Hoffman
