was turned over to the city years ago and turned into an industrial park.
Bolling died in 1836 and is buried in the family cemetary in Millbrook,
AL. Both brothers emigrated from Georgia in 1818, with Bolling settling
in what became Autauga County. Dixon's property became Gunter Air Force
Base. Bolling's decendants still live in central Alabama.
