1 This marriage is noted in "The Genealogical and Family History of the State of New Hampshire", Volume IV (1908), pp. 1984-1985.  Their marriage is also noted on Ancestry.com as Roziliah Coombs (aka Roziella or Rusella) of Winchester, NH and Jonathan Hill.  This possible lineage shows Jonathan Hill the son of a Joseph Hill. The possibility exists that the first five generations as written in "The Genealogical and Family History of the State of New Hampshire" and listed here are not related to our family.  We are definitely descended from Jonathan Hill and the information following his birth and marriage on this page is not in doubt, only his ancestors.
