John DICKINSON

HUSBAND:
[F4528]. John Dickinson.
Christened on 4 DEC 1564 at Billingborough, Lincolnshire, England; son of Waters DICKERSON and Alice. (S2).

William DICKINSON and Sarah STACY are often said to be the parents of Nathaniel DICKINSON [F2264]. However, it is apparent that our ancestors are of the Lincolnshire branch of the family, and not of the Cambridge branch of the family; and thus are descendants of John DICKINSON and Elizabeth. William Dickinson was born, married, and died in Ely, Cambridge, England. John was born and died in Billingborough, Lincolnshire, England. The descendants of John and Elizabeth, our ancestors, are all from Billingborough.

Occupation: yeoman.

John was churchwarden in 1620-1621.

John married Elizabeth

John died in Apr 1637 at Billingborough, Lincolnshire, England; and was buried on 19 APR 1637 in Billingborough, Lincolnshire, England.

Elizabeth.
Elizabeth died in Aug 1609 in Lincolnshire, England; and was buried on 30 Aug 1609 in Billingborough, Lincolnshire, England.
