I have previously posted but this time I will give more detailed information and hope that someone out there in Hill Land can help me. I would like to confirm the information that I have. My father left family tree information but no documentation or sources. I also would like to meet new cousins!!! Our ancestor tree starts with CHARLES HILL who married Margaret McGregor (she supposedly was related to a famous outlaw Rob Roy) They left Kent, England and settled in Dublin, Ireland between 1700 and 1725. They are said to be the first Hill's to settle in Ireland. They had three sons. Two sons (we do not know their names) went to the USA and settled in Pennsylvania as blacksmith and latter went into the lumber business. The third son is our ancestor Thomas who stayed in Dublin, Ireland. THOMAS HILL married Margaret Daly (we have no dates for these folks) They had children Margaret, Godfrey, Thomas, Humphrey and our ancestor Charles who was born Nov 1, 1785 CHARLES HILL b Nov 1, 1785 married Sarah Murphy b May 23, 1807 they remained in Dublin, Ireland and had 12 children Margaretb 1826, Charles jr b 1828,William Godfrey b 1830, Emily b 1832, Joseph b1834, Sarah b 1836, John b 1838, George b 1840, Fred b1842 ( he went ot Australia) Elizabeth b May 30, 1849,Frank b 1847 (he went to India) and our ancestor James Andrew Hill b July 24, 1850 JAMES ANDREW HILL b July 24, 1850 in Dublin, Ireland came to the USA and became a citizen in Belfast, Maine in 1876.
