DIXON and DELLA lived mostly in Darke/Mercer Co., OH area. They produced about 6 children (1 son and five girls). Several of the girls died when very young. Name: RICHARD MCCLELLAN (DICK, DIXON) ROCKWELL Born: August 24, 1861 in Ft. Recovery, Mercer Co., OH Married: DELPHENIA LEONA (DELLA) BERGMAN May 26, 1875 Died: March 24, 1924 in Ft. Recovery, OH Children: . ANNIE DIDAMIA ROCKWELL m THOMAS ERVIN FIGEL and ?? JACOBS . FAYETTE ROCKWELL m WILLIAM NELSON ADNEY and CHEST AUSTIN . OSCAR M. ROCKWELL m BESSIE LAVON KREIDER It is possible there are researchers or family descendants who believe DIXON and DELLA had no surviving son. However a son, OSCAR MCCLELLAN ROCKWELL b January 31, 1894 in Mercer Co., OH did survive. Oscar was listed in the household in 1900 OH census. It was necessary for OSCAR to leave home and work to support himself when he was 8-9 years old. Therefore he was not shown as a member of this household in subsequent censuses. In 1913, OSCAR MCCLELLAN ROCKWELL, left Ohio and moved to Blackstone, Nottoway Co., VA where he remained the rest of his life. He died August 8, 1985 (age 97) in Nottoway County, VA. -------------------------------- End of OH-FOOTSTEPS-D Digest V00 Issue #147 *******************************************
