    3. Hello, does anyone have information to share regarding a "lost relative" named Lizzie Hill? She was born July, 1874 in Pennsylvania. Her parents are John Hill and Harriet Hill, both from England. They migrated to Brazil, Indiana around the middle 1870's and both John & Harriet Hill are buried at Cottage Hill Cemetery. Harriet Hill's maiden name was Harriet Fisher and her name by her first marriage was Harriet Moore. Her marriage to John Hill is, I believe, a second marriage. Lizzie had a son named Harry or Henry Hill, born 1898 and died 1913 - also buried at Cottage Hill Cemetery. The boy was adopted by my great grandfather, John William Moore, in 1907 and I believe the reason for the adoption is because Lizzie died in either 1906 or 1907. The father of the boy is unknown(based on his death cert). I believe my great grandfather is the step brother to Lizzie Hill. I can not locate Lizzie Hill past the 1900 Brazil census record and the State of Indiana can not trace a death certificate for the period around 1907. Lizzie had an older brother named John Wesley Hill who was married to Rosetta Barrell and both are also buried at Cottage Hill Cemetery in Brazil, IN. Any information on Lizzie HIll would be appreciated. I can not be sure if she is also possibly buried at Cottage Hill Cemetery since all her relatives are buried there. No obit or death record can be found from the Clay County Genealogy Society. Any information or leads would be appreciated. Thanks, Sandy Sydlik
