Birth*1 January 1914Frances Hill was probably born on 1 January 1914 in Tulsa, Tulsa County, Oklahoma. Although her Find a Grave Memorial recorded her year of birth as 1911, we believe the 1920 census, which reported her age as 6 years, and was nearer in time to her birth, would have been more accurate.2,1 
Name VariationShe was called Frankie.1 
(Daughter) Census US 192028 January 1920Frankie was enumerated on the 1920 census taken on 28 January 1920 in the household of her suspected mother and stepfather, Frank Hart, in Moore, Muskogee County, Oklahoma. She was 6 years old.2

Father*Levi A. Hill2 b. 1817
Mother*Laura Niles2 b. 1829
Birth*17 September 1851Harris J. Hill was born on 17 September 1851 in Michigan.1,2 
Name VariationHis full name at birth was Jenks Harris Hill2,1,3 
Name Variation and his name was found in some records as Jenks H. Hill.2 
Marriage*13 August 1876He married, as his first wife, Malissa Grevengoed, daughter of Jan Van Grevengoed and Zwerussina Blijkshof, on 13 August 1876 in Olive, Ottawa County, Michigan.4 
Census US 1880*1 June 1880Malissa and Harris J. Hill were enumerated on the 1880 census taken on 1 June 1880 in Fruitport, Muskegon County, Michigan. Harris was 28 years of age and worked as a teamster, and Malissa was 22 years of age and keeping house. No children or other individuals were enumerated with them in 1880.5 
Marriage-Possible*1895He may have married Anna E. Heaton, daughter of James Andrew Heaton and Esther Ann Lewis, about 1895. Although they were living together as married on the 1900 census, we are unsure about their marriage. They both had previous spouses who were still living in 1900 and, other than Annie's divorce in December of 1901 from William H. May, we've not found divorce or marriage records to indicate a Hill marriage about 1895.1 
Census US 1900*1 June 1900Annie E. and Harris J. Hill were enumerated on the 1900 census taken on 1 June 1900 in Slagle, Wexford County, Michigan. Harris was 48 years of age and worked as a tinware peddler, and Annie was 39 years of age. They were both able to read, write and to speak English. They reported they had been married for 5 years and Annie was recorded as having given birth to six children, three of whom were living. The couple's daughter, Laura J. Hill, was 3 years old and was able to speak English. Two of Annie's sons from her first marriage were also enumerated in the Hill household in 1900. Charles May was 12 years old and worked as a day laborer, and William A. May was 7 years old, a student, and had attended school for four months of the census year. Both of the boys were able to read, write and to speak English. Regarding Annie's two other children from her first marriage, her oldest son, Arthur May, was 21 years old, boarding with a family in Dayton, Newaygo County, Michigan, and working as a farm laborer, and Annie's daughter, Maggie E. (May) Clark, was 20 years old, had married about 1895, and was enumerated in 1900 with her husband and children in Goodwell, Newaygo County, Michigan.1,6,7 
Death*26 February 1912He died as Jenks H. Hill on 26 February 1912 in Kalamazoo, Kalamazoo County, Michigan, at age 602 
Burial* and was buried in SW-8-1 & 2 of Grand Prairie Cemetery, Westwood, Kalamazoo County, Michigan.3

Occupation*Rees was a prominent merchant in Waynesburg, Greene County. The old ledgers of his store, conducted in partnership with John Depul, were in the hands of the Tenmile Country author who reported them to show many interesting transactions, as well as information about the people who lived in the Green County area at that time.5 
War of 1812*Rees served as a Colonel in the War of 1812.5 
Political Service*1816He served Greene County in the Pennsylvania Legislature for many years, first as a member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, being twice elected, in 1816 and 1819, Speaker of the House.

It is not known to us yet whether or not his wife Nancy and any of their children went with him to Virginia, or if he travelled the distance of about 165 miles alone.
