The
Chronology of E-Mail Explorations into the Family History of
Albert Sidney Dix and Isadora Nicoles
Dix
The following exchanges of information on the family history of Albert
Sidney Dix and Isadora Nicoles Dix, began in the weeks following
the June, 2001 Dix Family Reunion at Cheaha State Park in Alabama.
Having recently come into to the family photos after my father (Francis
Dix Whigham) died, I found a renewed interest in my family history and
had asked those at the reunion to identify some people and places in the
photos, that I didn't know. This led to a intellectual curiosity
for many of us to learn more about our family by pooling our individual
memories, photographs, and research.
