_____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Friday, November 10, 2006 9:45 AM To: [email protected] Subject: subscribe me please Does anyone know which Mr Hill of Essex county that Alexander Younger bought his land from? I ask because several of The Hills from Essex migrated to Surry County Nc and Two of the Hills were Wintesses to Benjamin Paniel(Pinions 1779 will in Surry Nc. I belive that suzannah wife of said Benjamin was a Hill and I believe Benjamins daughter Thomas was married to Susannah Younger the daughter of Alexander and Rebecca Younger . I also would like an opinion. When I read this will I get the idea that thomas is the only Child not still a Minor. I also feel that Susannah is listed last as she is the youngest child. I believe she was born Circa 1718-1720. I have read that Thomas Younger was made the guardian of his Brotehr James in 1735. Does anyone know who Susannah's guardian was?? !DEATH:Essex Co., VA Will, w/s 11 Aug 1725, w/p 18 Jul 1727 !Pioneers of Pettis, by Genevieve Carter The Early Settlers of MD by G Spardas MD Calendar of Wills; vol. 1, pg 173.
