I do not know anything about that family, but I am wondering if the Michael Hill that owned land next to John Sturdivant in Charles Co Va later Prince George was the father of a John Hill that died in 1715 Prince George son was married to a Francis and believe mother or stepmother was an Ann (who later married a Carter) deed from Prince George Co shows all three names plus Henry Robertson.I believe this John Hill later moved and living next door to a William Bobbitt.
Is this the Hill family from Zion.Briggs were closely related to the Gilliam family and the Gilliam were associated with the Robertson family in Charles Co va early 1700 and earlier than that in Henrico Co va in the last 1600.
Surry Co lines were very different in those days so that anyone living around Jones Holes Swamp to the south would be in Surry Co.
Thanks for any information on this Michael Hill.
