They moved to Indiana, around Valparaiso. I believe she taught school. Don't know the father's first name for Minnie, but my grandmother was Lenora (Nora) Dillon Hineline. By the time I met Aunt Minnie she was old and retired. She grew strawberries and raised chickens - what a character! She showed me (at age 9) how to shoot the head off the chicken for a "fresh" dinner - UGH! I had very little contact with her and Uncle Harold, but I remember them as loving, sweet people. My Mom used to spend time on their farm during the summers, out of the Chicago heat. If you have any info please contact me. Oh - Minnie's father lived in a one-room frame cabin and as the years went by, it started to slip on the hill in Indiana, but he wouldn't leave! Guess the Dillon's were a stubborn bunch! Any info appreciated. Also, Violet Dillon married Roy Linderman and ran a landscaping company out of Valparaiso - she was a school teacher. Help! Suzi Schor (the long lost cousin!)
