According to the Hill history on line.....http://www.thehill.org/home/content.asp?id=311 The Rev. Matthew Meigs founded The Hill School in 1851 as a "family boarding school." His son, John Meigs, became headmaster in 1876 at the age of 24. From 1911 to 1914, Alfred G. Rolfe served as headmaster, succeeded by Dwight R. Meigs, from 1914 to 1922. In 1920, ownership of the School was transferred from the Meigs family to Hill alumni, .... Headmaster Boyd Edwards led the School from 1922 to 1928. Edwards was followed by James I. Wendell. Edward T. Hall was appointed to fill the void. Upon his retirement in 1968, the Trustees appointed Archibald R. Montgomery III, who served until 1973, succeeded by Charles C. Watson. The current headmaster, David R. Dougherty, came to The Hill in 1993. There doesn't seem to be a headmaster Charles Evans on the Hill list. Betty
