Mildred O'BRIEN's book, Calvert Co., MD, Family Records has Benjamins before and after yours.

Christ Church Register:Robert DIXON m. 20 Apr. 170[3/5?], Ruth MANNING, & had
Benjamin, b. 28 Feb. 1704; Mary, b. 8 Feb. 1706; & Obed, b. 20 May 1709.

Obed DIXON, b. 20 May 1709, & wf. Sarah had
Mary, b. 2 Aug. 1741; Robert, 17 Sep. 1743; Ruth, 7 Jan. 1748, & Benjamin, 6 Feb. 1750.

Prince Fredk., Calvert Circuit, Methodist Episcopal Conference, Baptisms, DIXON

Benjamin Franklin, b. 9 Nov. 1883, B. F. - S.
Virgil Cleveland, b. 1 Oct. 1884, Benjamin - Susanna
Gertrude Olivia, b. 2 Jan. 1898, Joseph A. - Hester O.
Mamie Victoria, b. 24 Oct. 1881, Hezekiah - Barbara J.

Could your Benjamin F. have had wf. Susanna & children Benjamin Franklin & Virgil Cleveland?

The census of 1860, Calvert, had at Huntingtown, DIXON, Rebecca, 51; Hesekiah, 24; James, 22; Benjamin, 18; Barbera, 20; Thomas Knett, 9; & Mary, 3 mos.

Census of 1900, Upper Marlboro, Prince George, MD, DIXON:
Benjamin, 60, married 37 years
Wf. Susanna, 56, had 6 ch., 5 living
Eldridge, 20; Sinclair, 19; Benjamin, 17; Verney, 15; Susanna, 13; John D., 11; & Elmer, 9.

This is a real puzzle. If they had been married 37 years & had five living children, why were the SEVEN children all 20 and younger? And did Susanna have children when she was 43, 45, & 47?
