Melinda, Finally, some northern Hills. I am descended from Abraham Hill b ca 1747, lived in or around Greenwich CT. He married Hannah Ferris, and moved to what is now Carmel NY, in Putnam County. I have much info on his descendants, but no info on his origins. Is my Abraham in your data? thanks, Richard Hill ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, September 06, 2002 1:00 PM Subject: HILL-D Digest V02 #176

Many people have tried to prove their connection to the HILL-SMITHER (William Hill Sr.) line. Now more than ever, proof may be available for you to connect to. Two HILL-SMITHER researchers from independent branches of the tree have received perfectly matched DNA results at the HILL DNA PROJECT (http://www.livingston.net/hilldna/) DNA participant #4005 descended through Daniel HILL, and participant #4025 descended through Captain Robert HILL, have confirmed their researched connection to William HILL and Susannah SMITHERS through DNA testing. The beauty of this connection via DNA is that others can now confirm their connection to the line as well, by comparing their DNA results with the two above mentioned researchers. On the other hand, researchers may find that their results match one of the other lines posted at the HILL DNA PROJECT. The results of DNA testing can eliminate years of researching wrong lineages. Please join in on this project. Participants must be living MALEs with the surname HILL.

Hi Melinda..... I am also researching this line of Hills. The line I am particularly interested is John HILL(b.1615), James HILL(b.1646 - m.Sarah GRISWOLD), John HILL(b.1694 m.Ruth RICHARDSON), Nathan HILL(b.1731 - m.Esther), Lyman HILL(b.1769 - m.Hannah HULL). My gggrandfather Andrew HILL was born in Livonia, NY in 1810. I know his mothers name was Hannah and because the name Lyman is found several times in his children and children's children, I did a search for a Lyman HILL and Hannah in CT (both of Andrew's parents were born in CT)on the LDS site. This is how I ended up researching this line of HILLs. In the 1810 census for NY I found a Lyman HILL with the right amount of children and adults to fit in with the Lyman and Hannah HILL family I found on the LDS site. I am still looking for another form of verification and am interested in anything that might help me get there. Would love to hear about your line out of John HILL and how you found your info. Thanks, Sandy (Hill) Bolton Round Rock, Tx.

I forgot to mention that John Hill was first married to Francis Symonds. She died in 1673 and that same year, he married Catherine Chalker. He had 6 children with Francis and none with Catherine. Melinda

Hi! I'm a Hill descendant from the New England Hills. My line starts with John Hill who was born in England in 1615 and married to Catherine Chalker. They settled in CT around 1646. John became freeman at Guilford before 1657, having been in Branford in 1646 During the troubles between Connecticut and New Haven, he was of the Rossiter faction. Suits against him for slander are discussed in 'Steiner's History of Guilford' page 95. He was one of the lesser planters, being known as Goodman Hill. His home lot was on the south side of the Green, and contained about an acre and three-fourths. In addition to this, he had other lands. They had 6 children. I have all the info to my current generation. My grandmother was a Hill. Her grandmother was a Goodyear that married a Hill. Melinda

Hello Westley and all of you other Hills, I have been just watching this list for a long time. My grandmother was a Hill and from what I can gather, most of the Hills in my line lived rather non-discript lives. I was ready to give up because the name is so common and beyond the 1855 census on Saratoga County in NYS, I have found nothing. Most of you are researching Hills in the southern US and my Hills emigrated to this area from Massachusetts. Westley's letter encouraged me because his line is at least a little closer to home. I should have written instead of just watching the list for so long. If we don't let ourselves be known, the list is only a portion of what it should be. My Hill family came to Saratoga County in NYS circa. 1837. Truman and Hiram were basketmakers. I think Eunice Hill was the mother and there was a sister Terzah. Truman married Mary Ramsey and they had a son named Samuel who married Eva Corp. He was also a basketmaker and was murdered on the road to his home in about 1902. My grandmother Lelah Hill was one of four of his daughters. There really isn't much connection to your family, Westley, except for proximity. But thank you for writing to the list.

Looking for info on Oliver Hill b. abt. 1830 in KY. Need parents, siblings would be nice too. He married in IL. Does anyone have an Oliver in their line? Thanks, Kris

Here is a wonderful opportunity for researchers to validate their possible connection to William HILL and Susannah SMITHER. The DNA results are in and posted for two (DNA matched) HILL/SMITHER researchers. The information is posted at the HILL DNA PROJECT website at: http://www.livingston.net/hilldna/ Other HILL male HILL/SMITHER researchers are welcome to submit their DNA to the project, which may confirm or eliminate their connection to the line. If you are interested in this, please contact Ray HILL at: [email protected] Byron Hill

We need more living male participants from the Henry Truman HILL line to join in the HILL DNA Project. If you are reasonably certain of your connection to Henry Truman HILL and want to join in this study, please contact Ray Hill at [email protected] Your contribution of a DNA sample to the project will help validate the research of others and your own. If you would like to see how the project is going, please visit the HILL DNA PROJECT website at: http://www.livingston.net/hilldna/ Thanks for your help. Byron Hill

Does anyone have a Roy Elmer Hill Born November 19,1911 and died November 1984 in their family tree? He was married to Jeanette Beverforden and they had 4 children. One of their children was named Geraldine but she died very young as a teenager. Roy was also married to a Viola and a Peggy. He was married to Peggy when he died in 1984. Roy was from Fort Wayne, Indiana. He had worked for GE. Roy's parents names were Lumuell Hill and Elizabeth Bell. Roy had a sister named Mary and a brother but I do not know his name. If anyone has any information regarding any of the people mentioned above please e-mail me at [email protected] I am the granddaughter of Roy and I seem to have reached a dead end in finding information on this family. I would greatly appreciate any information. Sincerely, Jennifer Hill Phillips

Hello to all the Hills on the list! My name is Wesley E. Hill. My Hills I believe originated in Connecticut. My gggGrandfathers' name was Johnson Silas Hill, born in CT in 1782 according to the NY state census for Essex county. He also shows up in the 1810 Federal census for Elisabethtown, Essex county, NY. He also went by his middle name "Silas". Essex county land records refer to him as "Johnson", and his tombstone inscription at Black Creek Cemetary in Westport, NY reads:"Johnson S. Hill". He died at age 86 on July 7, 1868. Who his parents were or where they lived is not known exactly, I presume it was Connecticut. Johnson Hill was married twice, once to an unknown first wife, and second to Anna A. Beell who was born in 1806 somewhere in Canada. Where she is buried is not known. She is not buried along side her husband. Johnson Hill had a total of ten children: Silas, b 1818 Charlotte, b 1821 Jane, b 1825 Henry, b 1829 Montraville, b 1830, m Demmis D. ------------- Julia M. b 1832 m Joseph Cherbino 10/21/1848 d 3/19/1903 at Weybridge, VT Edgar Silas (my ggGrandfather), b 1834 m Mary Cherbino 11/15/1854 d 1905 at Chetopa, KS (?) Ion (perhaps Ian) Isaiah Sarah A. b 1847 m William F. Gregory of Westport, NY 1/26/1865 Without vital records its impossible to tell what happened to the other children. I would very much like to find out what happened to them, and I would like to go back further In Johnson Hill's line. Is anyone out there working on New York and Vermont Hills? Does anyone have lines that take them into CT, NY, or VT? I would appreciate any advice or info. Thanks, Wesley Hill I

I am confused about this--can someone help, please? I have Elsie Hill 1804 married to John Jividen / but then I also have this couple's daughter Josephine Jividen married to Jacob Homer Searles---whose mother is shown as Sarah HILL. I'd be much obliged if someone could clarify this for me and maybe also give me Sarah HILLS parents names. (A separate record states Sarah's maiden name is Lyons so I'm wondering if Sarah HILLS is not her name at all.) Thanks, Sarah
