Barton Lloyd Dellinger PA to IL
Looking for information on Barton Lloyd Dellinger who was born about 1847 in York Co., Pennsylania. Barton was the oldest son of Peter Dellinger and Charlotte Spangler.
In about 1855, Barton moved with his parents and siblings to Stephenson Co., Illinois. In the 1860 census for Loran Twp., Stephenson Co., Illinois, Barton is listed as living with his parents and being 12 years old. Barton is also listed with his parents in the 1870 census for Freeport, Stephenson Co., Illinois. His age is given as 22 years old.
I have found two birth records that state that Barton Lloyd Dellinger and Julietta Freeman were the parents of Bert Dellinger, b. 23 March 1881 and Aurilla Lavilla Dellinger, b. 26 March 1884. On these birth records it states that Bert was the 8th child born to Julietta Freeman. Aurilla is said to be the 10th child fo Julietta. However I have found no record of any other children.
Julietta is listed as being 32 years old and was born in Walsworth Co., Wisconsin on Aurilla's birth record.
Barton is listed in the 1885 Illinois state census and is living at 73 Central St., Freeport, IL. However that census only mentions heads of household and does not mention any other family members.
After 1885 I find no record of Barton living in Freeport. Distant relatives who also moved to the Freeport area about the same time as the Dellinger family moved on to Nebraska. I wonder if perhaps Barton moved there as well, but at this time I have no proof of that.
Any information on this family would be greatly appreciated.
