Collection of photographs from an album given to Dr. Jay D. Andrews by Anne Dilley, widow of Condit Dilley. Condit Dilley was the only son of Thomas Anderson Dilley, son of William Dilley and Mary Axtell Dilley.

Collection graciously submitted by Judy Dilley Mooers. Dr. Andrews permitted Judy to scan these images to share with Dilley researchers. Thank you Judy!

Captions included with each photo were also done by Judy. Judy states "Most of the photographs that I have sent were taken in Illinois. Most of the individuals pictured moved from Illinois to Kansas around 1880. This whole crowd moved from western Pennsylvania to western Illinois in about 1840".
