I have a version of the document you prepared on the Dillon family a few years ago. I believe I got it from Merton L. (Dick) Dillon, although I'm not certain of that. I just now tried to pull up your line, but couldn't find it. A bit more perseverance may be all that is needed. I've been researching the Dillons since I was about 15, and it has been 50 years now. I am presently writing up some material for publication on the earliest material I have. I have a lot online at Ancestry.com, but I want to put the material into print to reach those who may not be able to subscribe to Ancestry. I also feel compelled to correct some errors which have become folklore, it would seem, because they've been published (in print) elsewhere. I can share more on that idea when I'm closer to publication. My line (as you saw from my previous post) is John and Phebe Dillon, Matthew Dillon and Anna Ryan, Lorenzo Dillon and Abigail Pratt, Leander Dillon and Ellen M. Schutt, Harry Ira Dillon and Mary Elizabeth Vandervolgen, Ellen M. Dillon and Walter E. Van Camp, Mary Ellen Van Camp. By the way, I am sure of the maiden names for the women, and I've used the spellings as they were used in each appropriate generation. Perhaps you could send me your line. I've seen your name online many times in connection with the Dillons, but I think we've not communicated previously -- unless you sent me your Dillon document directly about 4 or 5 years ago. I just can't remember. I would like to see what obituaries you have. Hoping to hear from you, Mary Ellen Van Camp Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
