The 1850 census, Mercer County, District 42, lists a James P. Dillion, age 34, farmer. Also in the household is Juliet, 34; Cynthia, 12; Polly Ann, 10; and Avilia (spelling a little difficult to make out), 7. Hope this helps.

His wife was Julia or Juliet, and that's all the info I have on her. One of their childrens' names was Emarilla born November 14, 1843, but I do not have her date of death. I am new to researching geneology and any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
