Some sources have Robert's date of birth as 1922, some as 1921.
Bobbie's father was William Howard Dillard, 1902-1983, and his mother was Bessie Mae Cambron, 1903-1991. His siblings were Howard, Eula, and Jerry. He also had 3 half-siblings, Gary, Terry, and Sammie.
Bobbie married Vera Blanche Hutchinson, 1908-1963 while he was a Staff Sgt in the Army and she was a WAVE on Nov 17 1945 in Gainesville TX - Vera later died.
At age 43, he married Priscilla Price, age 43, born in 1922, in 1965 in Indiana. Priscilla had been divorced 2x before and was working as a recpetionis.
In the 1930 census, his birth year was stated to be 1922, he was born in Oklahoma, his name was spelled Boby, and he was living in Lindsay OK with his father WH, mother Bess, and younger siblings Howard, age 5, Eula, age 3, and Jery, age "0". Robert was attending school and his father was a salesman.
In the 1940 census, Bobbie was 18, living in Borger TX, with his mother Bess Alexander and step-father Henry A. Alexander. Also in the household were Howard Dilliard, Eula Dilliard, and Jennie Alexander, age 5. Step-father Henry was a laborer in oil construction and Bobbie is simply listed as a "new worker."
His obituary included in the Marion Chronicle-Tribune, on Friday, 24 Oct 1997 can be found below under "obituary."

I am researching Tasker, Jones, Bowen, Rees of Wales; Kroetch, Chartrand of Canada; and Boggs, Ferguson, Smith, of West Virginia and Eastern Kentucky. Also Steeples of Kansas. And on my mother's New England roots - well, too numerous to name since she descends from Mayflower passengers as well as Dutch East India captains who arrived with their families before the Mayflower landed further north than was planned. :)
I'm a Founder of AncientFaces and support the community answering questions & helping members make connections to the past (thus my official title of Founder & Content and Community Director). For me, it's been a labor of love for over 20 years. I truly believe with all of my heart that everyone should be remembered for generations to come. I am 2nd generation San Jose and have seen a lot of changes in the area while growing up. We used to be known as the "Valley of Heart's Delight" (because the Valley was covered with orchards and there were many canneries to process the food grown here, which shipped all over the US) - now we have adopted the nickname "Capital of Silicon Valley" and Apple, Ebay, Adobe, Netflix, Facebook, and many more tech companies are within a few miles of my current home in Campbell (including AncientFaces). From a small town of 25,000, we have grown to 1 million plus. And when you add in all of the communities surrounding us (for instance, Saratoga, where I attended high school, living a block from our current Mayor), we are truly one of the big cities in the US. I am so very proud of my hometown. For more information see Kathy - Founder & Content and Community Director
