Edward, I am not doing any research on the Dies/Dias family except to try and figure out why my husband's gg-grandfather Samuel Lamb, was living with David Dyas, age 53, in the 1860 Macon County, Dixon Springs Census. Other family members were Jane, age 53, Louiza, age 28, David, age 20, Jackson, age 15, Samuel Lamb, age 14, and Emiline Satterfield, age 18. Brenda
