No mention of her father being a Patriot - Her father's Will was probated on January 28, 1809, in Culpeper, County, VA - this doesn't match what we have on GENI, although a mistake can be made in Genealogy Books- I will locate the original Will of William Hill as it names all of the children - it should have a probate date-
