In Reply To:Hill family by mjhill on June 1, 2001 at 22:13:49
I can't help you, BUT my Hill family originated in SC with Peter Hill and then came to MS. Peter's son, Jesse, was the father of my great grandfather, Richard. Peter Hill died in 1874 in Louisiana. He was married to Phoebe Courtney born in 1779 in SC. Jesse was born in 1806 in Amite County, MS. Your information about the family moving to MS along with the common name of Richard tends to make me think the families could be connected. Do you have any information on the family that came to MS? You may e mail me at karleen_t@hotmail.com
