Notice biographique
The Dickey Family, as documented by these records, begins with John Dickey, 1795-1851, who emmigrated from Ireland to Canada in the late 1820's. He became a school teacher and later a Presbyterian clergyman. His son, James Dickey, became a prosperous farmer and politician in the Williamsburg area. John Sutherland Dickey, the son of James Dickey, became a school teacher and later a medical doctor.
Historique de la conservation
The material that constitutes this fonds was created and/or received by various members of the Dickey Family over the course of nearly two centuries. It has remained in the family home through the generations, finally being gathered together by one of the descendants, Murray Barkley, great- grandson of the family patriarch, the Reverend John Dickey. Mr. Barkley donated the family papers to Queen's University Archives in December 2001.
