JAMES HILL & SARAH WALKER of Rugeley - my great great grandparents. I'm looking for descendants of James Hill b.1836 in Rugeley, Staffs and Sarah Walker b. 1834? Abbots Bromley married 1859 in Abbots Bromley. Known children include:
Sarah Ann Hill b.1860
Harriet Hill b. 1862
James Hill b. 1864 marr. 1887 in Manchester to Zillah Gallear (b.Willenhall, Staffs 1861) - emigrated to New Zealand with four daughters in 1905 (son James Hill b.1893 died in childhood)- my great grandparents
Robert Hill b.1865
Richard Hill b. 1867
Elizabeth Hill b.1868
William Hill b.1870
George Hill b.1872
Edward Hill b.1873
We know that all three daughters reached adulthood (photos of Sarah snr with three adults women) and that one of the brothers married an Alice Venables and prob. lived in Colwyn Bay (photo of her and an Edith of same generation on the sands in 1940) William Hill was living at 46 Albion St, Rugeley in 1900 when he received a letter from ?Edward who was a soldier in Boer War.
ANybody out there who is descended from these people please contact me so we can fill in the gaps - I have a number of photos of Hill family members in UK (which I'm having trouble identifying) and lots in NZ which I can send you too.
