MN. Editor-Allow me to in- quire for my people. I left them in Rutherford, Tenn, in 1849. They belonged to D. C. Dement; he died and they were sold to James Flem- ing. Their names were Austin Dixon and Dilsia Dixon. They had three children with them, Caroline, Virgil and William. The last I heard of them they were living with Joseph Dement in Carroll county, Tenn., in 1869. The latter were my grandmother and grandfather. My mother's name is Mary Jane Ford, their daughter. I was brought to Mississippi in 1850 by Lucinda Dement. I was called Beriah Dement at that time. Since then my name is changed to A. B. Dick- son. Address me, care of Rev. N. Pearce, Yazoo City, Miss.
