===Middle Name===

There is no evidence from primary sources David's middle name was Jonathan or that he even had a middle name.  All known sources refer to the subject as [[David Hickox]] only.  Much of the confusion has likely arrision from his twin sons, [[David Jonathan Hickox]] and [[Jonathan David Hickox]], and the many decedents named after one of these three.

There is no evidence from primary sources that David had a nick name of "Yankee Dave", in fact, I believe I have identified the source of this idea. I had previously reached out to O.J because I have run across some of his research online, and his work seems to be the source of much of the information online about the Hickox family. In an email he claim “My father and his siblings used that moniker to differentiate between their Great-Great Grandfather David Hickox and his descendants with the same name.”<ref>Email - sub- source of Yankee dave.jpg/Citation Listing</ref>  Since then, and without citing their source, this seems to have propagated across the internet and can be found in many places.
