Have really enjoyed browsing them. Since I am a great, great grandaughter of Samuel John Gregory Dickey and Edna Jane Ross Dickey, I guess I am probably related to lots of you. Charlie Ross Dickey was my grandfather's brother as was Wm. Hardin Dickey. My grandfather was Thomas Porter Dickey. He married my grandmother in Nashville area then went to Burkburnett, TX. to live out the rest of his life. I had never heard of his brother Charlie Ross Dickey nor his 16 children, so was quite surprised over a year ago to learn of hundreds of descendents. My great grandparents were Samuel Albert Dickey and Rosie Mae Kirby Dickey. No one seems to know what became of them. Are there still Kirby or Ross descendents in the area? Just want to say hello and hope I get to visit your area and all my many relatives there some day. Would love to hear from you. Lots of aloha from a family member who lives in Hawaii. Pat Bolln (yes, that's spelled correctly) >> Hello, I have a Tom ROSS, born about 1844, son of William Alfred ROSS & Jane Adaline KERR. Wm & Jane's other children (at least the one's that I've got in my files) were: James Theodore ROSS (who married Mary Ann KERR), and Margaret Adaline ROSS (who married Hugh HANNAH). Are these folks related to your Samuel John Gregory DICKEY and Edna Jane ROSS? Happy Kin Searchin' Tom E.
