That's the one. Do you have Annie's maiden name by chance?

Re: gill DAR

cynlynn — 2012-05-23 12:21:28Z

Peter had a son, John Crawford Gill b. Feb 12, 1856 in Texas. John's mother would have been Mary Elizabeth Boles, b.1833 AL, daughter of Travis Boles. His wife, Annie T. Gill, who he married in Milam County, TX 1879.

Right John Gill?

I have a documented father for Peter per estate records. A documented grandfather and more. Lots of data back to Isaac Guille b.ca.1644 in France who migrated to VA in 1685. DNA tests as well.

I actually just finished my application on my mothers side, however I would love to research my paternal line. I have it up to John C Gill born Feb 1856. Not sure if your Peter Gill was his father or not. Would love assistance.

If it's the John C Gill born in Feb 1856 in Milam Co, TX whose both parents are from Alabama he later went to marry Annie (don't have maiden name, she was born in Texas ) who had my great grandmother Matilda C Gill ( Jan 1882) who married Sam S Hickman. Unfortunately when I met Matilda I was only 6 to her 94 and I was more interested in the ice cream bar. I do know that family is still In Milam, Limestone & Ellis counties.

Emilia Gill, daughter of Edward Gill, Co. Galway

petercrowley65 — 2012-05-08 20:19:30Z

Emilia Gill was my g-g-grandmother and she married my g-g-grandfather Charles McCarthy on Feb 4, 1864 in Liscannor, Co. Clare. The marriage cert said she was 18 (born about 1845) in Co. Galway, and her father was a Edward Gill, a farmer.

I've been searching and the nearest Edward Gill farming is in Athlone/Westmeath in GV, of 13 Edward Gills, but I guess it won't be easy trying to get a match.

One would wonder why Emilia Gill would be so far from home (the marriage cert said she was residing in Liscannor at the time), perhaps she was in domestic service....

Anyway if this links into anyone, I would be delighted to hear.

Re: Lydle Orin Gill

gill_krystle — 2012-05-04 00:49:19Z

I think we may possibly be related. My grandfather's name is Ivan Blair Gill and his father is Bernard/Barney Gill and his mother is Irma Blair. I know his father, Barney, was married to a woman previous, but I don't know who. He had children in that previous marriage, one of whom was named William. My father knows more information about Barney, such as his occupation(s), but I don't think he knows much about who Barney was married to previously. I just know that Barney was buried at Floyd Cemetery, Sioux City, Iowa. If you have any information about Barney and any of his children or ancestors, that would be great.

Emma E. Gill

MarkBooks — 2012-04-20 03:59:38Z

I'm looking for any information on Emma E. Gill, born 1865 in Indiana, died 1890, Logansport, IN.

1870 Fed. Census record shows her living with the Logan family at age 5 in Jackson, Cass Co., IN.

1880 Fed. Census record shows her as "Emma Logan" with the same family, and notes her status as "adopted".

In 1882, she married Henry L. Umbarger.

I'm looking for any information which could identify her biological parents.

John L. Gill b.1791 SC - lived in AL -wife Elizabeth Diffey

cynlynn — 2012-03-19 18:38:02Z

It appears that there is evidence of John L. Gill (perhaps the L is for Lumpkin) b.1791 SC, is the father of Peter Gill b.1825 AL. He had a number of children, all adults by 1850.

Children are:
Elizabeth b.1814
William Harrison Gill b.1816
James Diffey Gill b.1822
Peter Gill b. 1825
Joseph Kerr Gill b.1827 (could be Joseph Carr Gill)
Margaret J. Gill b. 1831
Charles Curt Gill b.1833
Henry Hopson Gill

Peter Gill, b.1825, was a blacksmith in Franklin County, AL in 1850. (also, later in Texas) A Peter Gill blacksmith is on a Jefferson County list for the Mexican War in the 1840's, stating his birth was in Elyton.

Trying to find a will for John L. Gill or land record or newspaper account. Any and all information on John Lumpkin Gill will be very helpful.

Lace_Lynch — 2012-03-13 17:30:55Z

YOUNGSTOWN, OH – Private services were held for John “Jack” Gill, 70, who passed away peacefully with his family at his side, on Saturday, March 10, 2012, after a brief illness.

He was born Dec. 8, 1941, to Edward and Eva (Mann) Gill, in East Liverpool, Ohio.(Columbiana County)

Jack attended The Ohio State University after graduating from East Liverpool High School in 1959.
In 1962, he began a 38-year career at American Paper Products Company in Boardman, Ohio where he rose to the position of Vice-President of marketing and sales. He then spent seven years with Envelope 1 in Columbiana, before retiring in 2007.

An airplane enthusiast his entire life, one of his fondest memories was a “ride along” in the cockpit of the Concorde in July of 1991, while on a trip to London and Ireland with his daughters. He was an avid golfer and reader, particularly history and politics.

Jack will be deeply missed by his wife, the former Betty Balog, whom he married Nov. 16, 1963; two daughters, Kathy (John) Thomas of Austintown, OH and Christine Gill of Cleveland; a brother, Tom (Judy) Gill of East Liverpool; his grandson, Patrick; and several nieces and nephews.

Friends will be invited to a memorial luncheon to be held at a later date.

The family requests that any memorial contributions be made to a charity of the donors choice.

William Gill in Ironwood, MI, Hurley WI,

Debtewes — 2012-03-11 06:53:55Z

Looking for information on William Gill, the 3rd husband of my maternal grandmother, Evelyn (Eva) nee Arnold and father of two of her children. Marriage was brief (he deserted her and may have gone to MN). Was brought back on family desertion charges and was offered the chance to join Canadian Army in WWI to serve his sentence. Returned to the area after the war and worked in a Saloon called The Board of Trade on Silver Street. Evelyn was gone I think by this time.

Re: Dr. German B. Gill of Sussex County, Virginia born about 1805

LGJones — 2012-03-10 19:52:05Z

Joseph Gill was married 2 or three times and his last wife was Mary Brown. His will (Chesterfield County, VA, Will Book 9, 1818-1823, page 596-, recorded August 22, 1822) list children Vaden and Jacob Gill, Winney Granger, Ritter Brown, Nancy Selby, Peter E. Gill, Elizabeth B. Traylor, Wilmouth Gill, Mary A. Litchford, German B., Amanda F. and Alisa M. Gill. After naming his daughter Ritter Brown, he names grandaughter Elizabeth G. Wilson. After naming his daughter Eliza B. Traylor, he names granddaughter Susan A. Traylor. He also list Vaden's son Jordan.

Ritter married Joel Brown, Elizabeth B. married Archer Traylor, Jr., Wilmouth married John Worsham Edwards, Mary A. married James Litchford, Amanda F. married Edward F. Perkinson and Alisa married 1st Pleasent Albert Mann and 2nd Thomas Clayton. I do not know the husband of Winny Granger. I do not know the name of Elizabeth G. Wilson's parents.

So you see, Jacob Gill, Nancy Selby, and German B. Gill were siblings.

Re: Daniel Gill b. 1756 d. 1844

jmgibson157 — 2012-03-08 02:06:45Z

Hi I just read your inquiry of Nelson Gill and which family he is from.
I have a copy of a letter written by Daniel Gill and wife Ansseneth to his son Jacob Gill in Coldwater Ont Canada dated August 1833.
In it he tells Jacob he had not received word back from son Nelson whom they thought was residing in Warsaw NY.
It seems that no other searchers have been able to find him either.
Hope this helps.

Kay,
The book referenced in these "threads" is History of the Gill Family, 1893 by Thos. F. Gill. He was from Perry, Ralls Co., MO. Published by the Standard Printing Co. This Thomas F. was married to a Hannah Chriswell about 1785.There is no other author or compiler named.
If "Thomas and Sarah (Bennett) Gill" have off spring with names, Marion, Curtis and John in the book you have, I would like to communicate further.

My gill family is from florida. Originally around the Orlando and Apopka area and later Jacksonville.

Also, you probably have this info but just in case
"Mr. Gill, who homesteaded on Lake Beauclair, south of Sorrento, sold his property to Mr. Dudley Adams and bought mules and a wagon to establish a route from Mount Dora to Melonville. There were seven families along the way. As some of them lived at a distance from the road, Mr. Gill carried a cow horn which he blew when approaching a home.
The residents would then bring their out going mail
and grocery lists to him and on his return trip he
would deliver their orders and incoming mail.
He made one round trip each week."

If they are the same person, I'll be more than happy to share with you all I know about him. What I will tell you about my Uncle Ken, is I loved him very, very much.

Joanne died a couple of years ago. She worked on our family history for a while, but I don't know how far she got. I think she was one of Aunt Pauline's daughters.

Thomas Gill is my father and currently resides in Jacksonville Florida. He is the only living child of Alonzo and all siblings on his mom and dads side are deceased. He was born January 8,1927 and just celebrated his 85th birthday. He wasnt raised with his father and any information you could send to me would be appreciated.I finally saw a picture of my grandfather about 2 1/2 years ago sent by Milton Gill's grandaughter. MY father isnt as tall as his dad but the resemblance is remarkable and my father has the beautiful Gill trademark blue gray eyes and had the silver streak in his hair at a young age. I have had the opportunity ti read a little about my grandfather and his life was pretty exciting.

Julie: Maybe you have found this info since 2006, but if you search the Australian Digitised Newspapers at http://trove.nla.gov.au/ for Joseph Gobey, you will see an obituary (SMH 1 July 1876) which indicates Joseph had a distinguished career as a soldier in the Peninsular Campaign against Napoleon, and that he met Prince Albert, Duke of Edinburgh during his visit to South Australia in 1868. Not bad for a cow keeper! Also see Ancestry family tree at http://trees.ancestry.com.au/tree/21751864/person/1128541995 .
