    3. While tracking my Hills through Family Tree Maker's World Family Tree and other CDs I found a claim by a Hill descendant that the John Hill that settled in Loveland, Clermont Co., Ohio was a descendant of Edward and John Hill of early Virginia. I found the brothers. They had been bookbinders in London. John died about 1624 from a fight with indians; he left his daughter with friends. I could never track Edward. I found references to Edwards but could not make any connection. He was middle aged when he came to Virginia. The Hill family page shows my line going back through Henry Truman to Henry and to Robert Hill, born ca 1650. This is the line I found in my research. But I never could tie Robert and Edward together. In one of their CDs there is a section devoted to the Warfield family. In this a Hill family is given where there is a Robert Hill, born ca 1650, and a Richard, born ca 1649. These Hill children are cousins to the Richard Warfield that came to Maryland. Later in the CD it says that Robert and Mary Hill died and left Henry and Phillip to Richard Hill. I finally convinced myself that the Robert Hill born in London and the Robert Hill that left Henry with Richard is the same Robert that is the top of my line. So I am offering this up to all of the Hills to think about. You can hail me at judys@ntr.net.
