I am looking for information on Abram (Abraham) F. Dillman and his immediate family. Abram (1877-1949)is my gg-grandfather's brother. Abram and his brother Harry left Gettysburg, PA in their early 20s---both going west. Harry settled somewhere near Johnstown, PA while Abram went to Illinois. I have some census reports that has Abram living in Ogle County and Lee County. I do know Abram married a girl named Hannah (1880-?) and they had a daughter named Catherine (1908-?). Hannah's maiden name was Hypes. His middle was probably Francis. His father's name was William Francis Dillman. Abram was one of 14 children of which only 8 lived. If anyone has any added information they would like to share it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Cecilia

Name You Are Researching Abram (Abraham) F. Dillman

Hi, Cecelia.
In the Dillman/Dagga (or Dayga) info, I show an Abraham Dillman (b. 1790) married to an Elizabeth "Betsey" Hypes but haven't found yours in any of the info here in the DFA Library (my house). I have a binder of "unplaced PA Dillmans" which has a Grace Gertrude Dillman (1889-1972) married to a William Martin Shealer and pictured in Gettysberg, PA. Her parents were Albert John Dillman and Ida Grace Riley. Not sure if they tie into your group. Meanwhile, I saw listings on Genforum by two people researching your same names, although, the posts were from a while ago. Hope that helps.
