General Notes: Husband - Robert Dickson


On reaching Meadville, Crawford County, Pennsylvania, he was enrolled in the militia and performed military duty with the men when but nine years of age, serving with credit to himself and danger to the natives. For this service he was afterward awarded a State pension. Then in 1811 he was commissioned by Gov. Simon Snyder for four years Lieutenant of the first company of the One Hundred and Thirty-seventh Regiment of the militia of Pennsylvania in the First Brigade of the Sixteenth Division, composed of the militia of the counties of Beaver, Butler, Mercer, Crawford, Erie, Venango and Warren. He took part in the War of 1812 and for patriotic services in that struggle was given a United States pension. After his father's death he inherited a part of the old homestead, on which he lived for over three-quarters of a century. He died in the ninetieth year of his age.
