I am writing to inquire if anyone has knowledge of a James Hill. He was a carpenter, born in Pennsylvania. He moved to Tyler County, (West) Virginia between 1830 and 1840. We are looking for his parents. Some documents suggest that his father was William Hill and that his mother's first name began with an "S." His family sailed to the United States from Ireland. It has been said that when his parents were sailing from Ireland, that the grandfather died and was buried at sea. Thank You, Suzanne Hill
