Dixon Officer (1863-1944) was born in Ireland to parents James Officer and Mary Jane Dixon, who married in 1855 in Shankill, Belfast. He moved with his parents to Pendleton, Lancashire and married Sarah Jane Ireland in Bradford in November 1883; they had 4 daughters. I have pinpointed Dixon and his family in the England census' 1881-1939.
Dixon had a brother, Robert, born 16 March 1872, in Pendleton. Their father, James Officer, died around this time, although I can't conclusively pinpoint his death, and his widow, Mary Jane, remarried to Patrick Smith in Pendleton in July 1877.
Does anyone have any information at all on the father, James Officer? Thank you.
