Thomas states he was born February, 1844 in North Carolina on the 1900 Austin, Travis County, Texas census.He also states his parents were both born in North Carolina.
In the 1880 census for Travis County, Texas Thomas states he was 35 years old (born abt 1845) and born in North Carolina.Birthplace of parents is left blank.
In the 1870 census of DeKalb County, Alabama Thomas states he is 26 years old (born abt 1844)and born in South Carolina.However, Frances also states she was born in South Carolina and mistakes as to places of birth are not uncommon on censuses.
He was married to Frances Louisa sometime before 1867 as their eldest daughter is 3 years old and born in Alabama on the 1870 census.
I have not yet found Thomas Dixon/Dickson on the 1860 census so I have no further information as to his parentage or siblings.
