The name Emma seems important to this family: brothers Lafayette Dick, Morris Dick, and Joseph Dick all had daughters named Emma. Is this just coincidence, or could this be the name of a grandmother or other relative???
I think this’ll be the last of these Dick/Butcher research notes that I post to the blog for now. I’ve got lots more notes, but have lost patience with posting all these notes. So, anyone out there who happens to come across this and wants more info, feel free to e-mail you and I’d be glad to just send you everything I’ve got so far. :)
