I am searching for information on the family of my paternal grandmother,
Maggie Mae Dickerson Bishop. I am especially interested i her mother, as
she died when my grandmother was age 2, and she has never seen a picture
of her mother! My grandmother is 91, and this is one wish I would dearly
love to grant to her in return for her love and faithfulness to me. My
great-grandmother was born Susie Carter in Fairfield County (DOB
11-3-1878, died 12-1-1911). She married WilliamFranklin Dickerson
(9-22-1868--2-24-1960) and they had 4 children who survived: Meador,
James Butler, Fannie Belle, and Maggie Mae. Susie died giving birth to a
still-born infant. I have been told that Susie's mother died early,
also, and that she was reared by her Grandmother Pettigrew (maternal
grandmother). There was apparently little contact between the relatives
after Susie's death. My grandmother recalls meeting her
great-grandmother on only one occasion. 
    The only remembrance that our family has is a beautiful, long lock
of dark hair tied with  pink ribbon, which my great-grandfather always
kept. Susie and her husband are buried at COOL BRANCH BAPTIST CHURCH.
They were married at SALEM"S CROSSROADS PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.
    Any information anyone has would be greatly appreciated, especially
for my grandmother and her sister who is 94. Thank you in advance for
your kindness! You may reach me privately at [email protected], or
[email protected]. I will be glad to share any info that I have. Other
surnames are: Bishop, Gault, Kennett, Mobley.
    God bless you all in your search! 
Sincerely,
Ruth Ann Bishop
