General Notes: Husband - William Dixon

---

He was brought to St. Thomas township, Franklin County, Pennsylvania, by his parents in his infancy. When only nine years old he was stolen by the Indians and concealed in a cave near his home, but was brought to his parents by a friendly squaw. He joined the company under Capt. Joseph Armstrong, Aug. 5, 1755, the first organization formed in the Conococheague valley after Braddock's defeat. He served until the close of the French and Indian war, being a sergeant in Captain Armstrong's company, of the Second battalion of the Pennsylvania regiment. He was with Major Dunwoody in an action near Knobsville, in what is now Fulton County, in which Dunwoody and his entire command were massacred, only Sergeant Dixon and two others escaping with their lives. He was an ensign in active service in the Revolution.
