Tom this is what I have, it's from the DILLON's written by Charles Raymond DILLON, the book that first mentioned Henry and Elinor DILLON and was full of so much DILLON information.

Descendants of Eleanor DILLION and Meshack Perdue of Franklin County, Virginia, United States.

Sometime around 1775 Meshack Perdue and wife Eleanor DILLION Perdue settled in the southwest part of Virginia. which was later to become Franklin County From the Virginia. Land Office at Richmond, Virginia, United States., we learn they purchased several hundreds of acres of land which he willed to his eleven sons and one daughter at his death. At the time his will was written, 27 Dec. 1837, his wife Eleanor DILLION Perdue was still living.

Eleanor DILLION was born about 1759 and married Meshack Perdue about 1775. He was born, according to his headstone, in 1756. They had issue:

1. John Otis Perdue, born 1776, m. Elizabeth Wingo, 5 Oct. 1812. (of whom we treat.)
2. Zackariah Perdue, m. Elizabeth Coon, 24 Oct. 1803.
3. Daniel Perdue, m. Prudence Ward, 27 Feb. 1804.
4. Eli Perdue m. Sally Chitwood, 3 April 1815.
5. Elizabeth Perdue, m. Benjamin Ward, 15 Sept. 1815.
6. Asa Perdue, m. Elizabeth Webb, 10 June 1813.
7. Matthew Perdue, no record of marriage.
8. Jesse Perdue, b. 1790, d. 18 June 1871, m. Catharine Plyborn 1 Feb. 1810.
9. Mark Perdue, b. 1792, d. 30 Dec. 1857, m. 1st Polly Bowsman 11 Mar. 1815, m. 2d Kitty DILLION.
10. Luke Perdue, d. before Dec. 1837, m. Susannah Bowsman 7 Oct. 1816.

Subject: [VAFRANKL] Franklin County Death Records

I'm trying to find the death records of John Otis Perdue (born about 1776) and his wife Elizabeth Wingo Perdue. (John is the son of Meshack Perdue and Elizabeth is the daughter of James and Catherine "Kitty" Wingo.) They lived in Franklin County, showing up in the 1850 census there. Next, they showed up in the 1860 McDowell County WV (Tug River district) census. No trace of them after that. Family history indicates they returned to Franklin County either before or immediately after the Civil War. Thanks, Betty
