    • Military: 10 Oct 1774, Battle of Point Pleasant, Mason County, West Virginia, USA; Captain of the Virginia Militia, wounded in the battle

    Notes:

    John Dickinson was a precocious fighting horseman who, in his early 20's, was named captain of a Virginia Militia company that was dubbed" Dickenson's Rangers" (misspelling 'DIckinson'. Fort Dickenson in central Virginia was named for him when he was still a young solider in command of the fort. He led a company in the Battle of Point Pleasant in what is now West Virginia in 1774.
    ---------------------------------------------------
    I spell his surname "Dickinson" (with an i) because He spelled it that way in his will, and because the historical markers for the fort named after him say "Fort Dickinson". But most Virginia records spell his (and his fathers) last name "Dickenson" (with an e), and his his Virginia Militia company is usually called "Dickenson's Rangers".
    I use his will's spelling as evidence that his father was the Adam Dickinson who was born in Massachusetts to Hezekiah Dickinson and Abigail Blakeman.
    But his children's names are generally spelled with an e, so that's how I spell them.
