3. WILLIAM3 DYKES, SR. (GEORGE2, DYKES1) was born Bet. 1725 - 1730, and died 1802 in South Carolina. He married (1) SUSANNAH (ELIZABETH?) EVERETTE, daughter of WILLIAM EVERETTE and NANCY ???. He married (2) PENELOPE JOHNSON.
Notes for WILLIAM DYKES, SR.:
William gave a deed to Reuben Powell in Pitt County, NC for a tract of land given to him by his father, George Dykes. It stated William Dykes of Winton County, South Carolina, now Barnwell. This is the same piece of land that was owned by William Dykes in Pitt County in 1775. The land was confiscated by the sheriff and sold to the highest bidder to get funds to hire a person to fight in the Revolutionary Army in place of William. In South Carolina, both George and William were Loyalists. After his land was taken, William left Pitt County and went to Barnwell County, South Carolina, where his son, George, then lived on land given him in 1772 by the Crown. To get a clear title for the land Reuben Powers paid 10 pounds to William Dykes in 1790.

In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal the day and year above written. William Dykes (his mark). Signed, sealed and delivered in presence of us: Joseph Jackson, Jr., Powell Herrington. Ordered to be registered, April term 1791.
It is believed that the said William Dikes was the one in Orangeburg, SC in 1773 with a probable son, George Dikes, as referenced by the SC Department of Archives & History
Alphabetical Index:
Dikes, William - Unrecorded plat for land not granted, 200 acres on Edisto River, Orangeburg District, surveyed by Robert Lang, 10 Apr 1773, Entry No. 009-018-0002-00331.
Dikes, William - Charles Brown, plat for 500 acres in Berkly County, 07 Feb 1775, Entry No. 0009-003-0013-00361-01.
Dikes, George - Plat for 100 acres in Colleton Co., 08 Aug 1772, Entry No. 0009-0003-0014-00402-01.
Dikes, George - Land grant for 100 acres in Colleton Co., 11 Feb 1773, Entry No. 0002-005-0028-00274-00.
Dikes, George - Memorial for 100 acres on Hollow Creek, Colleton Co., 21 Jun 1773, Entry No. 0030-002-0012-00253-03.
William Dikes apparently had four members in his household as each person was allowed 50 acres in a grant and he requested a grant for 200 acres.
If George was his son, he was probably newly married and asked for just his wife and himself in the separate grant.
The Revolutionary War, 1775-1783, found William Dikes and probably two sons fighting as Loyalists in the Orangeburg Militia.
Clark (1981) provided information on them:
Orangeburgh Militia - Pay abstract Nr 23, Colonel John Fisher's Regiment, Orangeburgh Militia (Fork of Edisto and Orangeburgh, SC) Captain John Sally's Company, Soldiers' Certification, Charlestown, SC, 183-six month pay, 14 June - 14 Dec. 1780, paid 23 Nov. 1781 (Taken from British Records Office, PRO T50, Vol. 1): #13 Dikes, George; #14 Thomas Dikes; #15 William Dikes (pg. 197).
Pay Abstract Nr_____, Major Zachariah Gibbs' Regiment, Spartan Militia, Ninety Six Brigade, men who came to Orangeburgh with Lieut Colonel John H. Cruger, now present at Dorchester, who also served with Colonel Ferguson, Lieutenant Samuel Toung's Company, six-months pay, 14 Jun - 13 Dec. 1780 (Taken from British Records Office, PRO, T50, Vol. 2,): #31 Thomas Dycks (pg. 281).
Pay Abstract Nr____, Lieut Colonel Zachariah Gibbs' Regiment, Spartan Militia, Ninety Six Brigade, six-months pay, 14 June - 13 Dec. 1780, 08 Sept 1781 (Taken from British Records Office, PRO T50, Vol. 1): #29 Thomas Dicks (pg. 279).
J.D. Parry of England, a member of the Association of Genealogists and Record Agents, was hired in 1985 to locate the military records of the above Loyalists; however, all he could find was the following as sent to this writer in a communication dated 19 May 1985:
T50//2. An abstract of pay due Capt. John Sally's Co., Orangeburg District of South Carolina Militia, 14 June 1780 to 14 Dec. 1780:
Private George Dikes, 6-8.8 pounds s. in arrears:
Private William Dikes, 6-8.8 pounds s. in arrears.
In arrears means that they were not paid for their Loyalist service. Nothing was found concerning Thomas Dikes. Additional research has not yielded any documents from the three Loyalists to the English government for compensation of their services.
If the said Thomas Dicks was a relative and left NC to fight in SC with the other Dikes', he paid dearly for his service as a Loyalist. Thomas Dick's land, 150 acres in Dobbs Co., was confiscated by the state of NC and sold to Richard Caswell, 25 April 1785.
Not much else is known about William Dikes. He was on the 1787 Tax List for Winton Co. (derived from portions of Orangeburg Co.)
On 06 Nov 1786, William Dyche received a state grant of land, 150 acres, situate in the District of Orangeburg on Roberts Swamp, north side of South Edisto (Vol. 16, pg. 41).

On 30 Jan 1802, William Dicks made a deed to his two daughters, Rebecca and Leurana Dicks, by his common-law wife, Lear Brooker. The deed was recorded in Barnwell Co. Deed Book No. 2, pg. 245-246:
William Dicks to Rebecker and Leurana Dicks. Deed. State of South Carolina. Barnwell District. January the thirtieth one thousand eight hundred and two. Know all men by these presents, for and in consideration of the love and affection which I have for my daughters, Rebecker and Leurana Dicks, children of Lear Brooker of the state and district aforesaid, have given and granted and by these presents, do give and grant unto my said children above mentioned, to them their heirs and assigns forever, the tract or parcel of land whereon I now live lying and being in the state and district aforesaid, containing one hundred and fifty acres together with the Mill thereon, and formerly known by the name of King Williams Mill, the said land lays in Boggy Gut, waters of Savannah River, and bounded by lands of Shadrick Mims and Elijah Gillett. I also give unto my said children, them their heirs and assigns all and singular my stock of every kind and description whatsoever together with my house furniture and every other species of property I may possess at my death, the land stock and other property to be equally divided between them my said two children above mentioned, tho should one of them die before she becomes of age or be married then and in that case I give the whole of the property above mentioned unto the survivor. It is fully understood that the right of the property above mentioned and given is to remain in myself until my death, at which period should Lear Brooker, the mother of my said children above mentioned, be then living, that she the said Lear Brooker shall have the use and benefit of the said property unless she should marry after this, then it is to rest with the above mentioned children of mine whether the said Lear Brooker is to have any of said property ___ ____, but if not marry and the said children should marry the above mentioned girls should and not their mother live with her children, she is to have one third of the above mentioned property until her death, and then to my said children. Given under my hand this 30th day of January 1802.
William Dicks (his seal). Signed sealed and delivered in presence of Thomas Bassett, Lewis Johnson. State of South Carolina. Barnwel District. Personally appeared before me Mr. Thomas Bassett, who after being duly sworn as the law directs and sayeth he was present and saw the within mentioned named William Dicks signed this deed of gift for the within mentioned purpose and who saw Mr. Lewis Johnson sign his name as witness. Sworn to before me this 9th day of February 1802. Robert Bradley, J.P. Thomas Bassett, Recorded the 9th of February 1802.
There can be no doubt that the above William Dicks was the one and same William Dikes counted by Elijah Gillett on the list of taxable persons in Winton Co. in 1787, and, from the above instrument, one can easily see that they were neighbors. Undoubtedly by the aforementioned deed of gift, William Dicks/Dikes wanted to insure that his illegitimate children would receive from his estate. The William Dyches estate was probated in Barnwell Co. and recorded in Barnwell Co. Estate Papers, Case #3, Package #12. His old friends, Joseph Jackson and Daniel McClain of Pitt Co., NC were the witnesses on the paper giving Lear Brooker the rights of administrator to the estate, 18 Mar 1802.
The inventory of his estate was as follows:
50 head of meat cattle $300.00
96 head of hogs $96.00
29 head of sheep $52.00
1 mare & 1 horse $180.00
2 stills appraised to $100.00
150 bushels of corn $75.00
3 beds, 2 bedsteads & furniture $60.00
1 barrel of 32 gal. of potato brandy $32.00
2 guns & shot pouches $20.00
1 lot of pewter & crockery wear $20.00
1 lot of plantation tools $15.00
1 set of kitchen furniture $9.00
1 lot of old chairs, table and
spinning wheel $5.00
60 barrels, pails, tubs $16.00
4 beehives $8.00
Dozen books by different persons $78.00
1 negro $40.00
Old saddle, saddlebags & ___ $7.00
We the undersigned do certify the above to be a true inventory and appraisement of the estate of William Dych deceased. _______Brown, Solomon McClain, Thomas Bassett.
1810 Barnwell Co., SC census, page 144:
Dyches, Lear 1 male under 10
1 female under 10
1 female 10-16
1 female over 45
1 slave
Lear Brooker died around 1819 in Barnwell Co., SC. Will Book 1, page 62
It is indeed unfortunate that William Dikes did not list any of his other heirs as there most likely were some. Even in the 1800 census, there were children living in his household who were under age; however, they could have been Lear Brooker's children by another man, so they would not inherit from his estate. As a result, one can only use circumstantial evidence of place and time to construct his family; therefore, it is believed that the following may have been his children:

I have an Abel Dykes b ca 1760 Orangeburg District, SC. I have his ancestors, but not his descendents. My Abel was listed in the 1800 SC census; on 11-20-1811 he signed a petition of the inhabitants of west FL for FL to become a state. By 6-1812 he had settled a claim west of the Pearl River. He was living in Pike Co, MS during the 1820 census, pg. 21. Also noted for receiving public lands east of the Pearl River were Barden Dykes and Benjamin; all 3 brothers. In the 1837 MS state census, Benjamin is listed in Jones Co.; in 1850 he & family are listed in Jasper Co. Could we be speaking of the same Dykes' family? Would like to swap info, if you're willing.

Comment:
I refer to this Benjamin Franklin Dykes as Sr. because that's how he's
listed on his headstone.

Children (1870 Jasper County Census)
Elender J. 15 - female
Benj. F. 13 - married Matilda Davis
George Allen 6
Aras 4 - female
Melvina 2
These are the only children I know of.
Benj. F. Dykes born May 7, 1857, d. Feb. 22, 1938, Pelican, La. Married
Matilda Davis, b. Nov. 10, 1854,
died Sept. 21, 1927. Children:

Andrew Franklin b. 1875
Eli Napoleon b. 1878 (named for my great, great grandfather)

Addie b. unknown
Maggie, b. unknown, married ? Dunlap, #2 Jack Pettit
Clara b. 1892, d. 1980, married James Clark d. 1957
My grandfather told us that Benjamin Franklin Dykes Sr. b. 1835, served
with Elias Davis (Matilda Davis'es father), and my great, great, great
grandfather in the Civil War. He was with him when he was mortally
wounded in the Battle of Corinth, October 3, 1862. Benjamin later joined
Newt Knight as did two of Elias'es brothers, a brother in law (David
Pridgen), and many other individuals familiar to my family. Recently
I've corresponded with a lady who gave me information on B.F. Dykes born
in 1781, I had'nt heard of him. She said his wife was possibly Martha
Elizabeth or Elizabeth Martha Coates. Their children were Martha, Sarah,
and Geo. Washington Dykes m. Frankie Gunter. Geo. Washington killed in
civil war.
She has Frankie Gunter marrying Younger Welborn after Geo. Washington's
death.

Benjamin Franklin DYKES was my great great grandfather. Benjamin DYKES
(spelled Dikes in the census book) was Mellie's grandfather. He was born
in the Orangeburg District of South Carolina in 1781, but was living in
Jasper county MS by the 1830's. His oldest son (Mellie's father) Benjamin
Franklin DYKES, Sr. was born in MS in 1835. He was in Company F, 7th
Batallion, MS Infantry during the Civil War. A farmer, he sometimes went
AWOL when he had to go home to plant or harvest the crops. This was not
an uncommon practice. His only brother, George Washington DYKES, was also
in Company F, but was killed early in the war.
Frances Melvina DYKES (Big Mama) known as "Mellie" or "Mel" was born in
MS in 1869 and married William Thomas "Tom" JOHNSTON (Big Dad) in 1887.
They moved in the early 1890's to Pelican, LA.
After the Civil War many of their relatives and neighbors had already
begun the move west from Jasper and Jones Counties to the Pelican area. A
group of these people most of whom were related, were known as the
"Mississippi Settlement" community. Some of these early settlers were
Blackwells, Davises, Johnikens, Raborns, Rishers, and WELBORNS among
others. Tom JOHNSTON was a cotton farmer and owned quite a bit of
property and cattle. When the oil and gas boom hit Pelican about 1915, he
and his sons hauled oilfield equipment. An oil company drilled a well on
the property, but only hit gas and abandoned the well. Mellie JOHNSTON
raised her family, never learning to read or write. She could count money
though. After her husband died of.DYKES Page 16 of 17

Parkinsons Disease in 1939, she continued to live in Pelican. Her son,
Luther, lived next door and looked after her, later moving her into his
own home. She died in 1960 at the age of 91.
Permelia GUNTER (Mellie's mother) was the daugher of Elizabeth of South
Carolina (b 1808) and Allen GUNTER of South Carolina (b 1798). She was
born in Smith County, MS in 1835. Her first child was born in 1855 and
her last in 1876. She died sometime between 1876 and 1894 because her
husband, B. F. DYKES, Sr. married Savilia Anderson "Sis" in Aug 1894.
B. F. DYKES, Sr moved to Pelican where he lived with his daughter, Mellie
and her family for several years before his death. They added a room onto
the house for him in the front by the porch. He spent a lot of time on
that porch with his rocker and his chewing tobacco. He was known as"Pap".
