Attorneys and Counsulors
Letter from Rom Dilley of Grand Rapids, MI to George E. Dilley 1 Jul 1931. Dear Sir: Enclosed letter delivered to me today; after some detective work, we find the mistake of your Chicago relative in sending it to Grand Rapids.
We have brothers at Pampa and Borger, TX. Parents live at Council Groves, KS. Did Your ancestor come from the OH River in Ohio? Our grandfather was Abner Dilley of Lawrence Co., OH. These letters have been divulged to no one, and read only enough information for proper delivery. Best Regards, Rom Dilley. (Did George E. Di11e, author of the book, collect records this far back? These are sons of Alva Newton Dilley of Lawrence Co., OH, and Kansas. JDA)
