James Dickinson 1828-1894
« on: Monday 02 February 09 13:59 GMT (UK) »
Hi

I have the following on my tree:-

James Dickinson born 1828 in Lancashire, England.      His parents were Mary Hampson (born in the Upholland/Orrell area of Lancashire) born c1797, died c1851 and John Dickinson born 1796, died 1837.

They travelled with family and other "Saints" in 1850 from Liverpool to New Orleans.   

I believe most of the family died due to a Cholera epidemic in or around 1851.    Although approximately three family members survived.

James Dickinson was the brother-in-law of David Sudworth.

James Dickinson married a Sarah Jane Snyder born 1838, died 1924 and I believe they settled in Utah.     I have accounted for approximately fifteen children.

Apart from the fact that I would be interested to hear from anyone descended from James and Sarah and would be interested if anyone could add to the story of the journey from Lancashire to New Orleans etc.

I may have information pertinent to other people.

I am a Hampson and Mary Hampson was the sister of my g.g.g.g. grandfather Thomas Hampson and I do have information on Hampson's if anyone is interested.

Any information would be very much appreciated and if I can pass on anything useful I am happy to do that.

Many thanks.
