    1. [KSNEMAHA] DILLINGHAM Family Photograph
    2. Shelley Cardiel
    3. I've "rescued" an old photograph of Roy DILLINGHAM of Padonia, Kansas. There is no studio or location indicated on the photograph, though it appears to have been taken in the 1890's with Roy likely in his teens at the time the photograph was taken. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Roy and his family: William Roy DILLINGHAM was b. in 1883 in Hiawatha, KS and married Ella May BENNER (b. 1884 near Hamlin, KS) on 2 Sept 1908. Together they had three children including, Helen Frances; Arthur Benner; and William Roy DILLINGHAM all born between 1911 and 1915. William's wife Ella May died 24 Jul 1915. Census records provide the following information: 1900 census if Hiawatha City, KS: William L. DILLINGHAM, age 38, born Oct 1861, married 17 years, born MO, parents born IN/MO, a Painter Lucy M.
