John Hill

Bef 1624 - 1689

• Name	John Hill
  Born	Bef 1624	England
  Gender	Male
  Died	08 Jun 1689	Guilford, New Haven Co, Connecticut   [1, 2]
  Probate	13 Jun 1689	Guilford, New Haven Co, Connecticut   [3]
  	Inventory taken June 13, 1689, and taken by Thomas Macoke and Stephen Bradlye, is headed "The inventory of the estate of John Hill the aged, deceased," and amounted to 123.00.09
  Notes	Smith's History of Guilford, page 20, states that "John Hill, by trade a carpenter, came from Northamptonshire, in England, as early as 1654, and settled upon the north side of the green, on the place now (1877) occupied by E. C. Bishop and tabor Smith." Dr. Steiner (NEHGR 57:87) says south side. In the Talcott manuscript (Genealogies of Guilford Families), it is stated that he was by trade a carpenter, and came early to Guilford, but not in the first company; that he was at Branford in 1646, but came with his family soon after to Guilford, the tradition being that the Hill family were "North Britons." That john Hill of Branford was the same man as John Hill of Guilford seem questionable as there was an Inventory of the estate of John Hill late of Branford taken in 1678, whole John Hill of Guilford died there in Guilford a few years later.
