Hancock County. Obituary of Greene Dickson (April 1858 – April 24, 1937) Funeral Services Held At Sparta For Victim Of Accident. Sparta. Ga., April 27. Funeral services for Green Dickson, 80, were held at 11 o’clock yesterday morning in the chapel of Lanier Funeral Home. Mr. Dickson had lived in Hancock County all of his life, being a farmer. He died from injuries received when struck by a truck as he walked across the road in front of his home. Mr. Dickson lived on the Sparta and Sandersville highway, his house being a few feet from the highway, and he had walked out to see about a truck which had wrecked when he was killed. The accident was said to have been unavoidable as the driver did not see him come from behind the other machine before it was too late to stop. Mr. Dickson is survived by one brother, and other relatives. Internment was in the family cemetery. Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle April 28, 1937
