Sorry to post this to the list, but my direct mail to her came back. Lisa Anne, I know I have contacted you before, but I am pretty sure I have a definite connection now. I went to the library, and copied the probate file for Thomas Hill, and strongly believe that the signatures of one of his sons is Williams. My Williams Hill was in Spartanburg Co. Cross Anchor area which is very close to Cross Keys, where Bird Hill's probate file list his land. Thomas' probate states that his land is adjacent to Bird's. I have a little more info on some of the children of Thomas and Miriam, from a few books, and Bird's probate. I can also send you decendents of Williams if you are interested and think this is the same Williams. take care, Lisa
