Dickson Fleming (deceased), merchant and real estate dealer, son of Peter and Sarah (Caughey) Fleming, was born April 24, 1822, in Preble County, Ohio, and was of Scotch-Irish descent. Capt. Fleming never attended school after he was twelve years old, but through his own energy and perseverance obtained more than an ordinary education. He was a great reader and gave special attention to the subjects of finance, politics and religion. The early death of his mother and the ill finance success of his father impressed him with the idea that to live was to work, and accordingly, at twelve years of age, he supported himself by working by the month on a farm. In 1848, he went to California, returning, however, by reason of failing health, in 1850, and making his home in or near West Lebanon. The marriage of Capt. Fleming occurred March 4, 1852, to Miss Ann S., daughter of Icabod and Eunice Howe. Mrs. Fleming was born in Hampden County, Massachusetts. Her mother died July 25, 1825, and father December 24, 1872. TO this union of Captain and Mrs. Fleming were born two children - Fred and Allie. Fred died August 9, 1881. He was a young man of sterling qualities, and of more than ordinary intelligence. Politically, Capt. Fleming was a thorough Republican. He enlisted in 1861, and re-enlisted in 1862, but, on account of ill health, was compelled to resign the command given him, and near the close of 1862, he came home. Capt. Fleming was by faith a Universalist. Mrs. Fleming is a member of the Universalist Church, having joined in 1880. The death of Capt. Fleming occurred January 8, 1873. In his death, Warren County lost one of the most valued and representative men, and the community a highly honored citizen. Mrs. Fleming resides in West Lebanon, and is one of the most amiable ladies in western Indiana. She is a great temperance advocate, and famed for her works of charity." - Counties of Warren, Benton, Jasper and Newton, Indiana, 1883, pages 169 & 170
