<Might I ask who's child Sgt. James HILL happens to be, born 1842, died June 27, 1862, buried in Zion Methodist Church Cemetery in Lincoln Co., NC, married Anne Robinson?> I have obtained a wealth of information about the Hills of Lincoln and Catawba Counties from DreickH@charter.net (not a Hill relative) . Much of the information about the Rev. Jacob Hill came from him. Sgt James Hill may have been the James Davis Hill son of Rev. Jacob Hill who was born in Anson Co., NC Dec. 21, 1790, died in Catawba Co. NC June 16, 1855, Catawba County, NC buried at Rehobeth Methodist Cemetery, Catawba County. He married on June 2, 1820 to Mariah (Marie) Davis born March 23, 1800 Mecklenburg County, NC. Died according to tombstone December 29, 1883.She is also buried at Rehobeth Methodist Cemetery. They had 11 children. My line comes from their 5th child William Bramwell Hill born Feb. 28, 1830. James Davis Hill was the 6th child. Now for total confusion. There may have been another Jacob Hill who married a Margaret C. Kistler Oct. 31, 1846, unless the date of death for Mariah Davis was wrong. There is a James Hill from 1700's who married Anne Robinson Mar. 6, 1786. This James was a son of Isaac Hill. Hope some of this helps. Betty Rankin
