My John Cox who married Elce Hix had a sister who married a Hilton. Wouldn't surprise me to find some of the Hixes of that family marrying into the Hiltons also. As I recall the Hilton family moved to SC...no doubt with some of the Hixes. Will dig into this and see what else I can find out. It may be the key to the ancestry of your Hixes. Lou Ann
