THE DILLON FAMILY
Descendants of Samuel Dillon
1758/60-1836

with Massie connections

My Dillon ancestory begins with Rebecca Dillon 1825-.

Most of my Dillon information has been generously given to me by newly found cousins during my Massie research.

Many thanks go out to each of them!

PLEASE NOTE:! Unfortunately sources cannot be provided. I received these files before I realized the importance of keeping close records of the same. PLEASE…If you remember having given these to me, contact me so that I may give you proper credit and offer your email address as the source and author.

To others using this and all other lineage outlines on these pages…please understand that all information has NOT been personally researched by myself.  I offer this and all other outlines only as a possible help to others.

Sometimes a name that appears on an outline can give one the clue to a possible ancestor
Good Luck to all!

Please be aware that most of the persons mentioned in this chart were of Virginia and West Virginia.

*Brackets { } have been placed around my direct ancestory line.

**Brackets [ ] have been place around MY comments. **I have stopped with the generation born shortly after the turn of the century (1800/1900) for privacy considerations.

**If further information on later family members is desired, I will attempt to help you by contacting my sources with your request.   I will ask them to forward that information to the particular parties. If you see a name or family you would like to have more info on, email me. I have places and other info on SOME of these names. I will be happy to share what I have.

  1. I have been trying to find information on Charlie H Vider-Bailey that says he was married to Pauline Dillon. I would appreciate any and as much information as one can give me.

  2. Robert that married Louisa are my so many great grandparents. My name is Marcy Stevens from Dingess.

  3. My line of ancestry comes from John and Fannie Mccomas Dillon my grandparents I am so glad to read about my Dillon family with dates and names if you need more about information about the children of John Henry Dillon and Fannie Mccomas Dillon you can contact me

  4. Hi thanks for the great info. I’m looking for my ancestor Minerva Jane Dillon born 1821 in Virginia lived in Mason, WV later moved or lived in point pleasant. Married William Riley Ferguson/Furgerson of the David P. Ferguson family of Virginia.

  5. Hello I am searching for Mary E Dillon , wife of Floyd Bailey who raised their family in West Virginia. On the marriage certificates of their children she lists her maiden name as Mary E Dillon of West Virginia. On his death certificate it says his name is Floyd EDWARD Bailey, however , I see folks put him down as F B Bailey. They had several children, William, Coy, Charlie Newton, Carrie, Lou Emma, Frances and Geneva. On Floyd Bailey’s obituary it says he is survived by his wife ( he died at age 87 ) Mary E Dillon. My mother and aunts recall that their Gram, Mary E Dillon Bailey left West Virginia upon Floyd’d death with one of her daughters Geneva Bailey Reedy. My family never knew where Mary died or where she is buried. I would love you forever if you have any clues. I have made a diligent search and nada.

    1. Watson, familysearch.org shows the
      marriage of Geneva Mytilda Bailey to
      Roy Jewell Reed,May 1,1944 in
      Kanawha,WV.
      You might try finding Roy Reed.
      The site also shows the deaths of
      Charlie,Carrie & Anna Bailey.
      My e-mail is mountain46@earthlink.net.

      1. Watson,further searching at familysearch
        shows, Monroe D.Reedy &
        Geneva Reedy in the 1940 Census
        living as lodgers with the Bailey
        family in Big Creek,WV.
        You might want to look at
        Anywho.com for possible
        Reedy relatives.

  6. Cathy Henderson

    Creed Dillon’s eldest daughter was not Margaret, that was his youngest daughter. The first daughter was Mary Jane who married Peter Dillon in Ohio, they both died 1880 in Putnam County, WV. Sometimes the initial J looks like and I.

  7. Betty Sheppard Dulcie

    I do have some Dillon folks………My great Grandmother was Elizabeth Dillon York Evans. She was the daughter of C. Dillon and …sorry can’t remember……and there were 10 or 11 children ………Grandmother was Elizabeth she died 1916……..she had 6 children be Henry York…….two died very young………at the same night…….never knew what happen ……..she married Joseph Evans…….he had 3 children by first marriage…..Rhoda Dillon……Names…….John Evans, Sally Evans and Mary Evans…….he married Elizabeth Dillon and had 4 more children………Lousia Evans died of typhoid or diphtheria………and the little brother, Joseph (little Joe) came down with the same thing 13 days later……….and also died…….she had Bettie Ann Evans married Washington Lee Vance and had 9 children……..my mom was one…….and the older brother William……Bill Evans……..he was married several times…..with children……..

  8. My line is through Hiram Banks Dillon & Gertrude Willis (2nd wife). Yes, Asa (1911-1978) is a duplicate; they had only three children before Banks died. Priscilla (Pat) (1912-1999) married Clyde Collins(1908-1949). I’m descended through their third child, Aquilla (1915-1991).

  9. Ok so my great-great grandfather was William Allen Dillon(1855-1921?). I’m from central AR. I got his death certificate and saw that his father was B.F. Dillon. I don’t see anyone here that rings a bell but I know that we must be related somehow. I’m wanting to figure all this stuff out. Thanks for your help!!

  10. Cassandra Tomblin

    I was looking through your names and my grandfather’s name is on your list. Lawrence Dillon son of Oscar Dillon and Glide Vickers..He is my mother and my aunt’s father, their names are Sandra K. Welch and Julia Elizabeth Dudding. They live at whitman wv and I am from Chauncey, wv. If by chance you could send some information about my family I know my mom would be so happy, and if you would like some more information about our family, I would be glad to send it you….thanks, Cassie

    1. Hi Cassandra,

      I really wish I could help you and share more than what is on this page with your mom, but unfortunately, my Dillon ancestry is a few generations back so I don’t know more than what I have here. This information was given to be by several Dillon descendants about 12 years ago when I had a dedicated web page for my genealogy. Unfortunately I don’t have contact any longer with these folks as that page was deleted by the page server going under. I really appreciate your comment and hope you are able to develope your lines. I truly wish I could be of more help. Tell your mother I send my best wishes as we are most likely distant cousins…;-D Thanks once again for your comments. Joanna Newman
