    Note: John Dilling's birthdate is listed as 1706, but as his children William and Catherine were listed as being "bound out" in 1773, they were clearly still minors, making them born no earlier than abt. perhaps 1752, making John likely younger than this Ancestry Member Tree estimate. Additional sources needed.
