    1. [HILL-L] William Hill and Barney Hill
    2. I have posted this before, but thought I would try again. I am looking for the ancestors of two lines of Hills: 1. WILLIAM HILL (c.1735-c.1791) lived on Buffalo Island Creek in Rockingham Co. NC in the mid 1700's. Wife - HANNAH BRIDGES. Sons included Thomas (1759-1849), John, James (1761-1833), Jacob, and perhaps Joab (1775-1841). Other Hill's living on adjacent property on Buffalo Island Creek were Gustavas Hill and his wife, Charity, and John Hill. William, Gustavas and John may have been related. 2. BARNEY HILL (1804-1849) was the first of the Hill family to come to Roane County, TN. Wife - NANCY GREEN MILLICAN. His children were all born in Roane County and include: Isaac Alexander Hill (1844-1916) William Columbus Hill John Nelson Hill (1848- ) Elizabeth Hill James Moses Hill (1849-1889) Barney Hill was listed in the 1840 census for Bradley Co., TN. It has been suggested that Barney Hill's mother may have been a Barnett, hence his name. If anyone has information on the ancestors of either WILLIAM HILL or BARNEY HILL, I would appreciate hearing from you.
