    Frances (Fanny) Dickenson has been the family celebrity, since her story of capture by the Indians and subsequent escape was newsworthy for 100 years. It was 29 June, 1785 that her husband, Archibald Scott, was killed by the Indians, and the children slain before Fanny's eyes. (15) After her escape, she married Thomas Johnson. An extensive history of Fanny can be found in the files of Dr. Leland B. Tate, Blacksburg, Virginia, a descendant of Fanny.
