	The informant for Austin's death certificate was Albert Dillon, his son. The listing for mother and father of the deceased is unknown. This is unfortunate because everyone in the family I have spoken with gave a mother as Cherry Smith and father as William Dillon living in the Cole Camp, Missouri area. Birthplace for Austin on his death certificate was given as Benton county. The combination of family sources and birthplace lead the research clearly to William and Cherry as parents. Obituary list children as Floyd, Albert, Aubrey, Roy Dillon, Mrs. Ben Bradley. List wife as the "former Laura Belle Stone"
