Through publicly available websites I was able to find several routes of my ancestry. I am greatly indebted to the work of many people, mostly unknown to me, for the ancestries I have discovered below. One resource I owe much gratitude to is cousin Beverly Eller Aker who has done a monumental job of maintaining the Hill family genealogy. I’ve traced several of the paths below and trust that they are accurate. Also, I’ve included a complete ancestral tree for Lynn’s family back to 1726 in Germany that was done by one of her cousins.
