Jannett's parents were married in 1791. Jannett is mentioned in her father's 1818 will as having married a Dixon:

"I am quite certain that his daughter Jennett DIXON is the wife of Alexander DICKSON who lived on Yellow Creek and the slave named Colbert given to the grandson, James DIXON, is confirmed in a 1833 deed record involving Alexander DICKSON in Dickson County in which Alexander mentions the slave of the same named owned by his son."
