Thanks for writing. Please do give my name to anyone researching the Hill family there in Lee Co., VA. Below is a copy of what I've sent to the Lee Co., KY site. It lists the four Hill men that we are trying to figure out where they belong. They are all from NC but just yesterday someone sent me info on Samuel P saying he was in the Lee Co., VA census for 1880, then we find him 1900 in Lee Co., KY although he has a child by 1883 in KY. I'm trying to find census info for Lee for those years that I listed to see what names are there and where they are from. We are trying to tie back to the NC Hill families. Marge 1. William P Hill b 1816 NC comes first to Breathitt 1850 and is a tailor and jailor. He marries Nancy Hargis 1847 Owsley. 1860 he's in Owsley and dies before 1870 in Lee. But Lee came from these counties so it could be he was in the same place and it just appears that he was moving around. He says his parents are from NC. He seems to be the first Hill in the area. children: Mary, Robert, Wm P jr., Palla Alto, Samuel Pryse, Caleb Breckinridge 2. James A Hill b 1838 NC m Anna Beatty 1868 Owsley. James was in the Civil War in NC and says when he is released from Yankee prison in DL that he resides in Owsley Co and this is where WM P is at this time. We think that James A is a nephew to WM P. No proof. He also ends up in Lee Co., KY children: Emily, Elizabeth, Jeannie, Samuel, Mary 3. Joel H Hill b 1830 NC(according to the 1880 lee Co., KY Census)d abt 1882 Lee co. m Arena Moore abt 1864 and had Rufus (among others) and they are my g and gg grandparents. Joel names children's names same as some by WM P. Have never found him with parents or in any other census. Children are born in NC, VA and the twin girls Abba and Palla Alto b Lee Co., KY 1878. The family of Wm P has a dau named Palla Alto also among other similar names. children: Rufus, Mary, Phoebe, Henry, Walter J, John, James, Abba and Palla Alto (twins) 4. Samuel P(arker?) Hill b sep 1854 NC d 8 aug 1932 Lee Co., KY (mother and father NC) m 1872 Mary Ellen Jackson b May 1857 NC d 19 jan 1944 Lee Co., KY. He is in Lee by 1883 when dau Nancy is born maybe before. Children: 1.Annie M b 1873 m Howard D Goe and has Dovie, Farris, Willis, Otis, Mavis. 2.Emma b 1879 m David Coomer 1903 has Lucille b 1904 3.Nancy E b 1883 m 1901 Judd James Roland Jr. had Clayton, Dorothy 4.Robert b 1885 (no other info) 5.Samuel Kenton b 1888 d 1973 m 1910 Elsie Simms had Robert, Lenora, WM, Eugene, Earl, Samuel Parker Hill. (from this name I wonder if Sam b 1854 is a Parker) 6.Georgia b 1893 m 1913 Robert Lee Palmer had Vina, Carl, Robert, Hester, Samuel, Howard 7.Charles Dewitt b 1895 d 1969 m Minnie Davis 1918 dau of Charles and Sarah Powell Davis. children: Vergil 1919, Ethel G 1924, Jeanita 1927, mary 1927, Frieda 1928, Charles Edward Any help on these families appreciated. Are they connected or just four families that happen to come to Lee Co., KY.
