Albert Hambright Dickson

1896 - 1978  (81 years)

• Name	Albert Hambright Dickson
  Born	10 Nov 1896	Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
  Gender	Male
  Died	13 Apr 1978	Mount Ephraim, Camden, New Jersey, USA
  Notes	"He died in his sleep at the age of 81 in April of 1978. He worked various jobs (sometimes 2 or 3 jobs at once to support his family). He smoked a pipe (cherry tobacco) to relax. If he didn't want to pay attention to anything, he'd turn his hearing aid off. He was a very quiet gentle man. He and his brothers formed the Dickson String Band, which later became the Garden State String band and now its Durning of Gloucester City. He played the banjo and mandolin. String Bands are a big deal in the Philadelphia area. They're called 'The Mummers'. They have a big parade in Philly every New Year's Day and make special appearances throughout the year." (thanks, Helen!)
