Jeff - thank you for the response.I am not a direct descendant of this line - but a son of EnochHenry Dickson, Enoch Nash Dickson married a sister of my direct ancestor.Below is the information that I have on the Dickson line.I'd appreciate it if you could look at what I have and let me know if I have any errors or if you can add any information.
Also, Enoch Nash Dickson married Martha L. Davis in Rutherford Co TN.Do you know if the Dicksons had other Davis connections prior to coming to Tennessee?
Thanks
Deborah
