Does anyone know anything about a Captain Robert Hill who was born about 1775 and died about 1842 in Essex County, VA?Father was Lewis Hill.Siblings were Humphrey Hill (possibly lived in Caroline Co, VA) Lewis B Hill, Caty Hill, Peggy Hill, John Hill.Polly Hill widow of Lewis married Mahon.
Robert Hill was also a sheriff of Essex County.He married a Phoebe Royston in 1797 Caroline Co, Va and possibly later married a Mary LNU.
Heirs mentioned in his will were Richard Hill born 1805, Eliza Hill born 1810; Emily Hill married Washington Bayne and moved to Westmoreland, VA; Julia A Hill married John Sale and had Julia Jr; and William H Anderson born about 1823--he may have been a grandson.
Eliza Hill died 1870 in Westmoreland Co, Va.her father was "Robert Hill" of Essex and "Mary" Hill.This iformation was on her death register
Thanks
