    Seeking info on fate of DICKERSON siblings who were orphaned in Bloomington, Muscatine in 1840. Nine boys and one girl ranging from 11 to 24 in age. Specifically seeking what became of Xenophon the youngest who was born in 1828 in Ohio and brother Whitten. I am a direct descendant of brother Jesse who lived in Muscatine and Louisa counties until his death in 1871. Family arrived at Bloomington in 1836 with mother Sally Dailey who passed in 1839-40. All children born in Washington county, Ohio. They lived in Indiana prior to arrival in Iowa. Sister, Nancy walked the Oregon Trail in 1844-5.

    Noted in the Muscatine list one James Welch. I believe he is the husband of my great aunt Nancy Dickerson. They were married in Muscatine in 1840. The Dickersons settled in Muscatine (then Bloomington) in 1836 and spread out from there. My great grandfather Jesse moved on to Louisa County. James and Nancy went to Missouri in 1844 and walked the Trail to Oregon. I would be grateful for any reference to James Welch or anyone with the surname Dickerson. Nancy had nine brothers. Her mother Sally died in 1839 and she cared for them as mother until moving on to Oregon. The father Joseph Dickerson had died enroute to Iowa. All were native to Ohio. James Welch was native to Kentucky. Thank you. Bill Dickerson, Milford, NH
