Joshua Hills

Note: The birth date above is a baptismal date, so he was actually born earlier.

Joshua was the son of Daniel Hills and Mabel Webster of East Hartford, Connecticut. He married (1) Glastonbury, CT 2 Sep 1785 Azubah "Zeuby" SIMONDS; m. (2) 1819 Sarah _______. Following his father's 1782 death, Thomas Slater was chosen as Joshua's guardian. Joshua appears on the 1790 census in E. Hartford, CT; 1810 in Hebron, Washington Co., NY; and 1820 in Truxton, Cortland, NY. He appears to have remarried very soon after the 1818 death of his first wife, because a woman of like age is living with him in 1820. Joshua, of Truxton, NY, wrote his will on 10 May 1824, naming wife Sarah among others. The village of Fabius, near where Joshua is buried, is only about five miles from Truxton, near where he lived.* Reference: Find A Grave Memorial - SmartCopy: Jun 14 2022, 21:47:18 UTC
