NANCY DIXON, daughter of CURTIS and LYDIA (WIGHT) DIXON, had a large family of children. She moved with her father's family from Palatine to the town of Denmark in 1804, at which place she died. In the Olney Genealogy, page 70, Joseph Olney, born about 1775, son of Hezekiah, married a Nancy Dixon. Their children were John D., born 7 August 1799, Hezekiah, born 4 October 1808, and Lewis D. born 12 May 1814. John's birth in 1799 would indicate an early marriage for Nancy. The various census records place the Olneys consistently near the Dixons. In 1810 they were in Denmark, Lewis County with five children, and in 1820 and 1830 still in Denmark. Nancy Dixon appears to have died between 1830, when she seems to be on the census and 1836 when her mother stated on her pension application that she had had twelve children.
Her birth year is from Kelly Beach. This makes her 15 & husband 23 when their first son was born. My genealogy states she married real young.
