General Notes: Husband - Jacob Dickson


In his veins flowed the blood of the Delaware Indian tribe. He was a soldier in the American army of the Revolution, at one time serving as aide-de-camp to General Washington. He enlisted from Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, and was the only Pennsylvania pensioner from that county, receiving for his military service fifty acres of land in Allegheny County, which he afterwards exchanged in a trade for a tract of two hundred acres in Pine township, the same county, near Wexford, there conducting farming operations.
