Do you have the names of Jonathan's children? I am searching for an Eben or Ebenezer. All I know of him is that he was in Lewis County, NY in 1819, where his son, James Melvin was born. OK to email me direct at osogreat@zianet.com

Hello--
I have a ggg-grandfather named Allen R. Hill who was born in RI in 1793. He married Dorcas Matteson of Coventry RI. Allen's father was William Hill. There are some Jonathan Hill's in Swansea MA (near Bristol RI) and they were originally from Prudence Island, RI. They moved to the mainland for protection during King Philips' War in the 1670s. I can't connect my Hills to the Swansea ones but I do have info on them. If either of these lines seem to match up to yours, I'd love to hear from you. I also have access to a source on RI people who went west. Nancy

Nancy-
In your RI source for folks who moved west ...
is there mention of an Eben/Ebenezer Hill or Hills?
He was in NY by 1819.
Thanks, Carol

Hi--
I will check the RI source for you as soon as I can--probably sometime this week when I can get to the library. There are some Ebenezer Hill's in Swansea MA (near Bristol RI) in the 1700s I think--(not my line) --I'll see what I can find for you.

My source for Hill people who emigrated from RI failed to turn up an Ebenezer--however I will continue to look. Where in NY do you find him?
Abstracts of Revolutionary War Pension Files, abstracted by Virgil D. White, The National Historical Publishing Co.,Waynesboro Tennessee 1991, Vol. II, p. 1634, lists the following Ebenezers:
Hill, Ebenezer, S43691. BLW#691-100, CT line, applied 20 Mar 1818 Windham Co Ct, in 1820 he had moved to Chenango Co. NY and stated he was aged 64 and had a wife Ruth aged 57 and a granddaughter Maria Shipman aged 5 whose mother was deceased
Another Ebenezer or Eleazer or Primus Hill, wife Tamer CT line, if you want the info I will send it
Another Ebenezer, wife was Sally, NH, had 5 unnamed daughters and four sons: John, Ebenezer Jr., James, Joshua
and if you want this info I will send it also

According to the article, "They left RI" , p. 142 of the RI Genealogical Register of Oct 1982, the following Hill people are listed as having been born in RI:
Abner of New Berlin NY; Clarissa D. of Gaines PA, Elizabeth, New Berlin NY; Laura A. of Addison NY; Mary of Northampton NY; Mercy Ann,Yates Co, NY (her parents listed as Mr. Hill and wife Ezra Spink (?));Nathaniel of Sullivan, NY; Otis of Hornellsville NY; Sarah of Sherburne NY; Tanty (female) of Cazenovia NY; Wanton of Hornellsville NY. All are apparently from the 1850 Census of NY and PA. My list includes their approximate birth dates so if any ring a bell let me know.
I still have to find my notes on the Swansea/Bristol Ebenezer Hill, but I have a busy week so as soon as I can get to it, I will. Good luck!
