General Notes: Husband - James L. Dixon


He came to Butler County, Pennsylvania, when aged twelve years, and after his marriage moved to Parker's Landing, where he bought and cleared a farm, on which he continued to reside un­til 1865, when he sold out and returned to the old homestead in Penn Township, Butler County. He, at one time or another, held every pub­lic office in the township. He was an out­spoken Republican and a close student of public affairs.
