Note

BIRTH Orlando Dickson was born 18 Mar 1893 (Woodruff Ward Records, Family History Library film 027,421) He is listed in Woodruff Ward Record #661 as the son of "Benjamin Dickson and Emily Francom."

NICKNAME For most of his life Orlando was known as Sy Dickson. Few people would have recognized his real name, just as they thought his father's name was Ben Dickson instead of Albert.
