Daniel Dill was the older brother of my 4x-great-grandfather Peter Dill (1807-1888). Until last week, he was just another name on my family tree. Digging deeper, I found a story that’s just begging to be told. And Peter plays a part.
The ancestry of Peter Dill
Peter Dill is my 4x-great-grandfather. He was the father of Harriet Dill, who married Zeno Bass. According to family lore (from Lola Timmons; his great-granddaughter, my great-grandmother), he was born in 1807 in Ohio. His father and grandfather were also named Peter Dill.
