I'm guessing if they lived in WI in 1850, that the children were more likely born in WI.
While I don't see a connection between your Eli Gill and my great grandfather, Frank P. Gill, born in Orillia, ON, CA in 1834, it's interesting that they both trace back to Ontario.
Back in those days, it seems that people had large families. My g grandfather was one of 9 boys and 6 girls. His father, Jacob, left the U.S. for Canada in about 1810.
