Life

James Moses Dick was born in Ireland in 1787, according to the FamilySearch tree, which gives no source for the year or the country and records no parents for him.1 In July 1815, the tree says, he married Susannah Webb, a daughter of Charles C. Webb and Sarah Waggoner, in Jasper County, Georgia; no record of the marriage is attached.2 The tree names eleven children, born from 1819 to 1842, among them Robert G. (1819–1884), Susan (1822–1887), William Livingston (1825–1908), Levi W. (1827–1882), Harriet C. (1834–1898), James Franklin (1840–1880) and Nancy Annie (1842–1926).3 A James Dick was enumerated in the federal census of 1830, which the tree places in Newton County, Georgia, and the censuses of 1850 and 1860 list James Dick in Newton County, with Susan in his household in 1860.4 He died in Newton County on 5 January 1864, the tree says.5 The Find a Grave index has an entry for James Moses Dick.6 The Georgia death record of an M. J. Allen, who died on 28 February 1926, names as parents James Dick and "Susie Wibb".7 Inference The record is evidently of one of his daughters, perhaps Nancy Annie, who the tree says died in 1926.7 The tree's statement that he was born in Ireland rests, as far as the attached sources show, on a user-submitted Ancestry family tree.8 Inference The censuses of 1850 and 1860 record birthplaces and would test it, but their entries have not been examined for this biography.8
