Note: In 1876, shorty after arriving in the Verde Valley Arizona the Dickinson family changed their name from Dickerson.
Samuel Cotton Dickinson and Nancy Jane Green Dickinson
SAMUEL COTTON DICERSON/DICKINSON is the son of Zadock Dickerson, born in Pennsylvania on September 16, 1774. He married Mary "Polly" (Williams) Thorn in Washington County, Ohio, on February 13, 1817. She was born in Wales on February 25, 1789, and is the daughter of Robert (1762-1843) and Jane (Roberts) Williams. She is the mother of David Thorn (1811-1899). Zadock and Mary are listed in the 1820 and 1830 Census of Bristol Township, Morgan County, Ohio, then in the 1850 Census of Van Buren County, Iowa. They are buried in Heidlebaugh Cemetery, Davis County, Iowa. He is probably the parent of David Dickerson (1806-1886), Harriet Dickerson Sanford (1810-1886), Zadock Dickerson (1812-1855), Rhoda Dickerson Harward (1814-1892), and they are probably the parents of Elizabeth Dickerson Haney (1821-1908) Mary Ann Dickerson Brown (1826-1914) and Samuel Cotton Dickerson (1827-1907). (Find a Grave.) There are at least 2 Dickerson families arriving from England and settling in the northern Colonies. Grandsons of Henry Dickerson were patriots in the Revolutionary War: his sons are John (1721), whose son is Henry; Thomas (1723), whose sons are Thomas, Kinzer, and Vachel; and Sarratt (1725), whose sons are Zadock and Solomon. (GenForum.) It is likely that these are the ancestors of Zadock Dickerson (1774) and Samuel Cotton Dickerson, who was born in New York (Ohio or New Jersey) on September 10 (Sharlot Hall.) or 16 (Gravestone.), 1827. Samuel died on January 17, 1907, then was buried in the Cottonwood Cemetery, plot C 437.
