Censuses have been downloaded from Ancestry.com and/or Family Search.org. The numbers at the end generally represent (Ward), (Enumeration District), and page(s).
While most of censuses show the surname as Dickins, the marriage record has it as Dickens. both for Hessle and his parents. Speaking of which some of the censuses show his given name as Hessie and others as Hessle. For now I'm going to treat Hessie as a preferred given name. Dardinger-2 12:13, 24 June 2017 (EDT)
