Note: According to his Death Registration, Henry Robert Dingman was the son of "Leucina Dingman" and it shows no father. This would likely refer to Lucina Dingman (1825-1878), an early child of Garret Dingman and Annie Sabins. That would make Lucina an older sister of Henry. There seems to be a long period between the early children in the 1820s and then in 1837 and 1840s. Were there two wifes of Garrett Dingman? This must have been well known to have been written in the Death Registration.
