(b) Gravesite of Vincent Dillon Sr., in the Scottown Cemetery(Wi-30), Windsor Twp., Lawrence Co., OH. This cemetery is
believed to have originated as a family cemetery through the efforts of Vincent, perhaps beginning with the death of
Vincent's father, John Dillon, abt 1848. Located on Vincent's original farm near the present community of Scottown, it also
includes several members of Vincent and Hannah's immediate family. Vincent was probably born on the ancestral farm of
his grandfather, Peter Dillon Sr., in Greene Co., PA. He resettled with his father and family to Monroe Co., OH, about 1835,
then again to Windsor Twp., Lawrence Co., OH, about 1847, where he lived on the same farm for the 45 remaining years
of his life. Vincent and Hannah had thirteen children over these three locations, twelve of which reached adulthood.
