I am searching for info on John Hill born in VA abt 1805. the 1860 Nelson Co, Va census lists his birthplace as Shenandoah. Whether it was actually Shenandoah County or referring to the Shenandoah Valley area I don't know. I know his wife was Catherine (or Katherine) and one daughter was Martha June Hill born 1832 married Zephaniah May. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Susan Murdock

I believe the LDS church has been considering it, perhaps someone of that church might be able to tell you. I did see some mention of it on several other lists some time back, but didn't go into it myself due to the expense (?) and also because I think it works best with the paternal line...
