Military Photo Information....George L. Dickens

Have photos of my grandfather, George L. Dickens, born 1876 in Bay County, in military. Does anyone know where he might have served, i.e., National Guard, etc?

Am also looking for information regarding the Dickens (James B, George L, Ben Hill) families in Panama City (Millville) in the 1800's & early 1900's.

Thank you.

Search for Dickins in Bay County, Florida

Ben Hill was in the military in WWI according to his military records, and he and James are buried in Oakland Cemetery. There was a George L. married and in the census' of Jackson County (search Jackson County, FL).

Also you might do a google search for "Spanish American War" to compare photos of uniforms from that war to that of George L.'s picture.

Dear Ms. Crecca -- Just saw this add'l message from you. You asked about Ben Hill Dickens of Panama City. That is definitely my grandfather, who eventually moved to Wewahitchka in Gulf County, FL -- about 20 mi. from Port St. Joe. I don't know about George Dickens, but will ask my mother if she knows. Ben Dickens
