My gg-grandfather is William Jasper HILL (b.15 Jan 1842) fr GA. He married Hettie Ann SHAHAN in Walker Co, GA. I have been unable to locate his parents. His father is ? HILL, b.? GA; married Mary "Polly" ? (b.abt.1813 in ?,GA). Friday, Oct 8, 1999 - Frances Moore posted a query concerning a John James HILL (b.1812) that married Mary "Polly" Cape (b.1815). She indicated that they had 8 children that lived in GA and that 2 of their sons (William and Aaron) were in the Civil War. My William Jasper HILL was in the Civil War (Co.I,35th Regiment, Georgia Volunteer Infantry). Just curious about the names submitted and the time line. We had "assumed" that William J.'s wifes surname was TOWNSEND but have not located ANY information to validate or dispute that. Perhaps Mary "Polly" CAPE and our Mary "Polly" are one and the same. Anyone know anything about this HILL family? LDKingsley - Gainesville, Texas kingsley@ntin.net
