  • Notes 
    • I called and spoke with Fern on 16 Jan 2011. She helped me with several of the names of her Dickinson aunts and uncles. She said she thought her Dickinson grandparent also had a stillborn child. She also told me the William "Bill" Pratt, the brother of Joseph Carroll "Jim" Pratt, is living in West Richland, WA and that he is suffering from some type of life-threatening illness. She also said her aunt Irma and her husband who are now both deceased, used to do a lot of genealogy work and donated lots of time down at the East Benton County Historical Society where there is a whole wall of information on the Pratt family. She recommended I take a look at that. Fern told me she was 70 years old. She told me she was a member of the Class of '55 at Kennewick High School. She said there are other Dickinson people living in the Tri-City area but many of them are not related. She is a nice gal and we had a good visit.

      I believe William and Ora had a total of twelve children. However, that fact needs confirmation.
