W. Jones presented me this book in Bridgeport Conn 1847 Henry H. Hill. Henry H. Hill attended the Cottage School on Golden Hill in Bridgeport, Conn. whose Principal at the time was the Rev. Henry Jones. ========================================================================= Henry H. Hill, according to the Helena, Montana 1900 Census was born 1825 in Rhode Island. His wife Maanry Hauser was born 1835 in Pendleton Co. KY and was the daughter of Samuel Thomas Hauser and Mary Ann Kennett. According to the information recorded in the birth and death records of Henry and Maanry's children the family moved a good deal. In an old newspaper clipping from a Helena, MT paper reporting the death of Maanry Hauser Hill in Falmouth, KY on June 6, 1901 it is reported the family moved to Helena, MT about 1887. Samuel T. Hauser (b. 1833 Falmouty, KY), Maanry's brother had been in Montana for some time and served as Territorial Governor of that state in 1885-86.
