I must apologise for failing to mention that I had previously posted some info re Rachel HILL.


It has been so frustrating not being able to connect her to her birth family.

I really appreciate the time and effort members have made to try to assist me.

Many thanks.

Wow....there's a lot of information there!

Saves others using time to find what has already been found if previous threads have been found


Maybe a good idea to ask for threads to be merged into one   ??

Hi

I looked for other Hill marriages around that time, in case Rachel's siblings cropped up.

On 8 Apr 1864 in St Peter's CoI, Dublin, there was a marriage of Jacob Hill, Gardener, of Lower Kevin Street, son of Richard Hill, to Ellen Hannan.

There is also the marriage of a Joseph Hill of 29 Pembroke Road, again son of Richard Hill.

All three are strong biblical names - could they be siblings?   It might be worth checking them out as you may get a lead here.

I noticed the Death of a Richard Hill, age 77, on 7 Apr 1861.  Apparently this is in the Clontarf Church Register.   As Clontarf is close to Donabate, could this be Rachel's father.  Have you checked the Register to see what it says.

Regards

I doubt that Richard Hill of Mountjoy Place and who died in 1861 is the same family.
For information:
1866 newspaper articles refer to a tragedy  near Newbridge, the residence of Charles Cobbe Esq.  where Joseph Hill, agent and steward was involved in the attempted rescue.

I have a Rachel Hill as my 2nd Great Grandmother, Married Hugh McGraw - 1873 - Hutchesontown, Lanarkshire, Scotland. I'd be glad to share more info if any of this data matches your search.
