Biography

Research Notes

DIXON, PETER. He was son of Peter Dixon who had a grant of land, 36 acres, in Kittery, 26 March, 1679 ; about that time he married Mary Remick, daughter of Christian Remick. He built his house on that lot, at a spot a short distance below Boiling Rock, and that locality has ever since been called "Dixon's Point." The house of the late F. A. Dixon stands on the spot where Peter built the first house that stood on the land. He was a ship-carpenter ; he did not have a yard of his own, but worked in the Diamond shipyard many years.
