Birth

ABT 1865 Missouri

mother was only 36 so this was not Dicey or it was one of his daughters, name on census hard to make out

Research Note

The 1880 Census indicates Mexico's 2nd wife, a Wincy born in North Carolina, who was about 45 at the time of the Census. This woman is clearly not Dicey and was probably not one of Mexico's daughters.
