Debbie, I don't have a clue. The only link I have is that in the 1850 Nelson Co census, he lists his birthplace as Shenandoah. His wife Catherine lists hers as Augusta. By the way, my May family is from Brocks Gap, Rockingham.

Do you know where the Shenandoah Co. Hills came from? Thanks, Debbie in Harrisonburg ==== HILL Mailing List ==== Attached files are not allowed on this list.
