    Notes 
    • BIRTH: No birth rec found. While there is no absolute proof that John is the son of John Hillman, Sr, it can hardly be doubted, as there was no other Hillman family on Martha's Vineyard. Furthermore, John Hillman, Jr, of Chilmark sold land to Benjamin and Jonathan Hillman, proved sons of John Hillamn, Sr, on 9 Dec 1723. The land bordered the land of John Hillman, Sr (Dukes Co. Deeds, 4:322 [FHL #911712]). Date and place of birth are approximations. John Hillman, Sr, was living in Tisbury, 1685-1692. See deposition of John Hillman, Sr, 2 Sep 1698, Suffolk Co. Court Files, #4714 (FHL #910808).
      MAR: No mar rec found. John's adm of estate, below, identifies a widow Ruth. Ruth Hillman is identified in the will of her father, James Cottle of Tisbury, 6 Aug 1739, proved Oct 1750, Dukes Co. Probate, 3:254-55 (FHL #911747).
      DEATH: VITAL RECORDS OF CHILMARK with addenda by Catherine Merwin Mayhew (Bowie, MD, 1991; repr Boston, 1904) 144 (FHL #974.494/C1 V2v).
