looking for family of David Willis Dickerson

I'm a new seeker. I'm looking for information about the family of David Willis Dickerson b. 1810in Morris Co NJ, married to Ana Jane Miller b. 1812 in Morris Co NJ. According to the information I have received, David's son,William Randolph Dickerson b. 1837, and wife Caroline Braino (b. 1842, NYC< NY) relocated to North Bend, Dodge Co, NE sometime after 1865.

Son William R. & Caroline had six children: George Willis Dickerson b.1870 in North Bend,Dodge Co. NE (my great-grandfather) (place of and date of death unknown); Orilla Jane b. 1866 also in North Bend; William Edward b. 1868, in North Bend; Lillian May b. 1873 in North Bend; Benjamin R. b. in 1875 in WY; and Minnie Bell b.1881, in North Bend.

George Willis Dickerson married Zelma Mae Hagans in NW Missouri about 1899 or 1901. They had a general store in Allendale, MO. He and Zelma had three children - Edna Mae b. 1901; Mildred June b. about 1906; and John Willis, b. 1911, all born in Worth Co. MO. Edna Mae was my grandmother.

I also know that George Willis and Zelma Mae were divorced in the late 1920s or early 1930s, not too long after they adopted Dorothea Margaret Gilland, born March 24, 1922. After the divorce, my mother and her siblings lost track of their grandfather and Margaret.

I have the partial names of David Willis Dickerson's (William's father) four other siblings, but no other information. It appears as if they too, were born in NJ.

I would appreciate any information about William Randolph's siblings (named above) and their descendants.

Although I have names and dates, and in some cases, the name of the places they lived, I do not have much information about their actual lives.

David Willis and William Randolph appear to be direct descendants of Philemon and Thomas Dickerson.

Thank you for you help.

Susan
