Hi Joyce

This is our Family Tree.   The Joseph Dillin Family.  I sent 6 generations.I have included all of the family history that Rebecca Dillon Hoose and I have gleaned from our families word of mouth that are still living and the obituaries and family information that we both had. Also some came from  the Tri-County site, which I am grateful for a wonderful site, Roots web, Ancestry.com, and the LDS.

We did the best we could with dates although some of the dates even on the documents we had do not match what we know to be true.  Hoping this will help someone else in their search.

Note the difference in the spelling of our surname.
