Amos Nixon, 26 May 1844 - 22 July 1911, married Olivia Hon somewhere between Montgomery County, KY and California. His family ended up out here. We have an ancient family group sheet with the note:
"Name shown as Olivia W. Nixon on deed records in Book 52, Page 154 of the Johnson County,
Arkansas records".
So, he stopped off in Johnson County long enough to buy land.
Amos married at least twice. The only children we know about are with Olivia. They are Elizabeth, b. 21 Sep 1871, Harvey, b. 31 May 1876, and George, b. 3 Jun 1874.
George in turn married several times too. We know he married Margaret Dale and they produced Amos DeWitt Nixon, b. 1907, who married Sarah Ellen Dare, b. 1916.
"Hon" is sometimes spelled "Hahn", "Horn", "Hohn" or "Honn". Nixon is pretty standard. Amos is my dead end. Does anyone have siblings or ancestors?
I have them all on GENDEX format on my web page.
