>My uncle Martin Elmo Hill married a Helen Grace Carvill Massey and I
>have her being from Meridian, Miss. She could have been born in
>Alabama. Helen was going to check for me. Helen and Elmo lived in
>Belzoni, Miss. for years where he was a county agent. Helen and Elmo
>adopted their first child, a girl. I do not know anything further about
>the Massey family. Helen did say she had stayed in touch with her
>mother's family. Her mother died in 1963 and Elmo died in early 1980's.

>I do not know of any Thompsons being in the Hill family but I could be
>wrong. I have traced the John Hill, 3rd great grandfather, back to Ala
>and maybe even NC but can't confirm that yet.

>I have gotten so much help from so many different people in looking for
>this research, I will be more than happy to share with you anything I
>have.

>I will work on the web page again and get it back online soon. Hope to
