Life

Dee Jackson Sisson was born in Webster County, Mississippi, on 14 September 1893, a date and place the FamilySearch tree gives without an attached source.1 The federal census of 1900 lists him as D. Jackson Sisson in the household (the people living together at one address, as the census-taker recorded them) of George Sisson in Beat 4 of Webster County, a beat being in Mississippi a supervisor's district of a county; the tree does not yet name his parents.2 The Alabama county marriage index records three marriages of a Dee J. Sisson.3 The first, to Catherine Johnson, took place on 25 October 1913; the tree does not record her, and nothing in the index says what became of the marriage.4 On 21 July 1917 he married Vallie A. Walden in Tallapoosa County, Alabama.5 He registered for the First World War draft at Birmingham, Jefferson County, and the Veterans Administration master index, the government's card file of veterans' claims, carries an entry for him dated 24 August 1919 at St. Louis, Missouri.6 Inference The index entry suggests that he served in the armed forces during the war, though the service itself is not described in the records in hand.6 The census of 1920 recorded Dee J. Sisson with his wife Valley in Birmingham.7 The tree records their divorce before 1930, without a source, and in 1930 Dee J. Sisson married Ruth Helms in Florida.8 The census of 1940 found him in Blount County, Alabama.9 He died in Crisp County, Georgia, on 9 July 1962 and was buried in Sunnyside Cemetery, Cordele, in the same county.10
