I have recently found my Dycus ancestors after finding the 1900 census record listing my great-grandmother Lula Dycus. Her father was James Larkin Dycus and his father was Davd Dycus. I have seen many Ancestry.com trees listing David's middle name as William but have no source information for that middle name.
Instead, I DO see sources for a middle initial of A, which seems to match a story posted in one tree about Civil War service in Savannah. Other census, voting, legal, etc. records for David A Dycus put him in the same Vernell, Red Clay, neighborhood as my David Dycus.
