This part of the Hill Family History section is devoted to all Hill men and boys who served in the State Militias, the Continental Army and the Naval services during the American Revolutionary War for Independence, 1775-1783. If you have documents or information on a Hill ancestor who served in the war, please send us copies to preserve in the Family Library.
This site is sponsored by the Hill family Association, a national family club devoted to gathering and preserving family history of all Hill families.
