HILL ..
John Hill moved from Plymouth to Boston in 1630. He was made freeman 18 March 1642. Another John Hill was admitted as freeman, at Boston, 6 March 1645, perhaps son of the first. The first John Hill was one of the grantees of "Nashaway" in
'The Town Records say that land was laid out. 19 July 1694, to "Roger Dearing, Robert Mitchell, Joseph Couch and Dennis Hicks, to be divided among themselves as they see cause." There are two other similar records. It may be a division of property of the first Roger Deering among his heirs. The fact also that Joan Crafts, widow of the first Roger Deering, made her home in her old age with Sarah Hicks points to the conclusion that Dennis Hicks married Sarah Deering.

AND HIER FAMILIES
1640 and died in 1647.1 He seems to have been interested in land speculation in several places.
A John Hill was taxed in Dover, N. H., the 8th of the 10th month, 1639. This could not have been the John Hill of Dover, who in 1659 deposed that he was about thirty-five years of age, for he was, therefore, born about 1624 and would be only fifteen years of age in 1639. If born in 1624, he would have become of age in 1645, and so would well correspond to the John Hill who was admitted as freeman in Boston in that year. John Hill of Dover had wife Elizabeth, and John Hill of Boston married Eliza- beth Strong, 16 Jan. 1656. The births of his children so far as known, indicate that the John of Boston was the John of Dover. It is probable that his father, the first John Hill mentioned above, acquired land in Dover and was taxed for it in 1639; that he returned to Boston and died in 1647: that his son John Hill inherited land of his father in Dover and was taxed for it in 1650 ; that he married Elizabeth Strong in Boston in 1656 and settled in Dover at once, where he was taxed in 1657 and is often mentioned till 1685.2
John Hill lived in that part of Dover called Oyster River. now Durham, N. 11. He was a grand juryman in 1668 and in 1671.

"Hist. Memoranda of Ancient Dover. pp. 353. 350, 349. 356. 363. Some have supposed that John Hill of Dover was a brother to Valentine Hill of that place. This is disproved by the fact that John, brother of Valentine Hill, was a merchant of London. His will, dated 14 Dec. 1665. shows plainly that he was not the John Hill of Dover. N. 11. See Water's Gleanings. Vol. I. 5.
Richard Hill is mentioned in the Court Records of New Hampshire in 1665. The inventory of his estate was made 3 Jan. 1677-8. A John Hill ‹lied in 1682 and left his property to the wife of Francis Champernowne. William Hill was taxed at Oyster River in 1657. He had wife Judith and son William. born in 1646, who had wife Hannah and son Henry. None of these have been connected with the family of John Hill of Dover. neither with the family of Valentine Hill.
A David Hill married. 25 Oct. 1710. Anne, widow of Joseph Couch and dau. of Christopher Adams. He died about March 1717. leaving children, one aged 4 years 8 months, the other 2 years. The first was Anne Ilill born 31 July 1712. m. Enoch Staples 24 Sept. 1728, d. 23 April 1742. The other was perhaps Elizabeth Hill, who m. John Cole 24 Oct. 1728. Cf. York Deeds 1X. 02.

He was taxed in 1684. after which he is not mentioned. The time and place of his death are not known. His children, so far as known from deeds and incidental mention, were:
I. JOSEPH b. 1657: m. (1) Catherine Knight, (2) Susanna Beedle.
2. SAMUEL b. prob. 1659; m. Elizabeth Williams. JOHN b. 1661 : m. perhaps Sarah Brackett. BENJAMIN b. 8 April 1665; prob. d. unm. HANNAH, m. William Frye.

2 I. Joseph, son of John Hill, made a deposition, 27 Sept. 1682, in which he says he was about twenty-five years of age. He was then a constable. In 1685 he sold to John Smart a farm at Oyster River, situated "by ye little bay between ve plantations of Joseph Kent and John Ault." The deed declares that he bought it of his father, John Hill. He married ( 1) in Kittery, about 1688, Cath- erine Knight and settled in Dover, where he bought land of Job Clements in 1689. He sold this and a grant, made to him by the town in 1694, to John Downing in 1699. Exception is made in the deed to "a rod square, where my former wife and children are buried." The deed is signed by Joseph Hill and wife Susanna Hill He had, then, before 1699, married Susanna, daughter of Christo- pher Beedle. ( York Deeds VII. 29.) In 1696 Joseph Hill bought land at Long Reach in Kittery, and it was probably about this time that his second marriage occurred. His will, dated 30 Jan. 1712-13, was probated 5 Jan. 1713. It names the following children. His widow Susanna probably married, 2 Jan. 1724, John Lydston. The marriage was recorded in Newington.
