Newton Gills Hill

   Cause of his death was Coronary Sclerosis.

  General Notes:

The World War I Draft Registration Cards, 1917-1918, Ohio, Lawrence County (ancestry.com database) records Newton Gills Hill as a self employed merchant whose date of birth was Dec 25, 1878. His physical description is listed as medium height, medium build, blue eyes, and brown hair. Family stories report he served in WWI. Personally, my opinion is that his age would have prevented him from service.

The 1900 Federal Census for Upper Township, Lawrence Co., Ohio, District 80, page 47B records Newton G. (Dec 1878) and Lois (June 1881) with new born daughter Marie (May 1900).

The 1910 Federal Census for Upper Township, Lawrence Co., Ohio, District 97 records Newton G. (31) and Matilda L. (28) with children Alice M. (9), Lowry B. (6), and Ina G. (8/12).
