19260 MEREDITH MIXON, MICAH MIXON(701), JOHN MIXON IV (6), JOHN MIXON III (3), JOHN MIXON II (2), JOHN MIXON I (1)

Meridth Mixon, s. possibly of Michal Mixon and Lydia Williamson, was b. 1765 in Cheraws, South Carolina, d. Abt 1829 in Wilkerson, Georgia.  , m. Sena “Lena”, b. 1785, d. 1870

Note:  From John Leslie Mixson’s notes in the Mixon-Mixson Familes, he says “ Michael (Micah) mentioned no wife in his will, therefore, he was a widower at the time. He did mention, however, Jonathan Williamson, directing his executor to carry out the agreement he had made with him. One record states Mr. Williamson was his father-in-law, father of Lydia.  If this was the case then Meridith would be the son of Micah and Lydia.                      Larry Mixson

Note: Several genealogies on ancestry.com list this James Mixon as sone of Meridth Mixon.  I can find no direct evidence that makes this connection but Meridth Mixon died in Georgia at the time James is shown to be there so James could be Meridth’s son.  If anyone has supporting evidence I would very much like to hear it.  Larry Mixson
