I am looking for the ancestors of Laura Hill who was the daughter of Dr. Moses Hill. Laura was born in NY State in 1815. Although the 1850 IN census shows her father as a Doctor, there is reason to believe that he was perhaps a fake one and dealt in herbs and popular cures of the period. In 1828/29 this Hill family was living in LaGrange County, IN. In 1832 Laura Hill married Washington Adams and in the 1850 census Washington and Laura were living in Legonier, IN with their three children: Mary J born in 1840, Moses born in 1842 and Martha born in 1846. In 1853 the family moved to Mt. Carroll, IL where in 1861 daughter Mary J. Adams married Andrew J. Christian. In 1863 Washington Adams died in Mt. Carroll. Widow Laura remarried a few years later. I do not know what happened to other two children, Moses or Martha Adams. I am looking for the ancestors of Moses Hill family who came from NY state.
