Father Charley was working as a farmer in general farming.
At the time of the Apr. 9, 1930 U.S. Census, Everett was single, 18 years old and, along with Lester Bailey (age 22), was lodging with the Charley and Grace Chambers family on rented farm in District 26 of Sugar Grove, Dallas, Iowa. The family owned a radio. Everett was a hired man working as a farm laborer and living with the farm foreman's family. In 1935 when he was 24 years old Everett was living in a rural area of Park County, Wyoming [Source: 1940 U.S. Census]. Everett became acquainted with his future wife, Lillian Balder, during the summer of 1936 when she was working at Morris Dude Ranch and he worked a short distance away at the Trout Creek Ranch on the North Fork in Park County, Wyoming. They were married on Feb. 5, 1938 in Cody, Park, Wyoming when he was 26 and she was 20 years old. At the time of the May 15, 1940 U.S. Census, Everett H. was 27 years old and living with his 22-year-old wife, Lillian, their six-month-old daughter, Marlene A., and a 28-year-old lodger from Montana, Carl E. Huntington, in a home they rented for $5/month located in a rural area of Park County, Wyoming. He and Carl were working 60 hours a week as ranch hands on a cattle ranch. Everett had worked 52 weeks in 1939 and earned $960. He had completed his education through the 7th grade but Lillian was a high school graduate, as was Carl. This was the Hollister Ranch, where both daughters Marlene and Janice were born. The family lived there for 14 years while the girls attended Wapiti School. The Dixons rented the Stonebridge Place for three years, then worked three more years at the Broken H Ranch. In 1956 they bought the Hans Nelson Ranch on Irma Flat. The Dixons sold their ranch in 1981 and moved to Cody. Everett enjoyed fishing, hunting, pitching horseshoes, and camping. He was devoted to his family, and was a kind and generous person. At the time of his death he and Lillian were living at 825 Canyon Ave. in Cody, Park, Wyoming. Everett passed away at his home in Cody on Apr. 10, 1994 at the age of 82. |
