Joyce, would you share with me what you have on this person mentioned in your query?:
Michael DICKSON, Jr. b. 1748, NC, (Rev. War soldier) d. 1803 in Hancock Co., GA m. (1) Margaret BARNETT in Jan. 1779. Margaret was d/o Hugh BARNETT and Elizabeth CURRY of NC.
Do you know if these DICKSONs are related to Gen. David DICKSON living next door in Jackson Co., GA? Do you have copies of Rev. War documents for Michael, Jr.? Do they give any clues as to where he lived, where he fought, who he served under &etc?
My reason for asking is that my 5Ggrandfather, Alexander GILLESPIE, a Rev. War vet. who lived in York Co., SC, did all or most of his Rev. War. service in South Carolina and lived in Jackson Co., GA from at least 1796, was connected in various ways to an extended family of DICKSONs, including Gen. David DICKSON and another David DICKSON who died in Jackson County in 1808.
Anything you can contribute would be greatly appreciated.
