Ellery Barber Hill was a son of Varnum G. and Lovina Chesebrough Hill, and was born near Alfred, N. Y., April 5, 1849 - eighty years ago. He died early Sunday morning, April 26, 1931.
At the age of four years he came with his parents to Albion, Wisconsin. Later they returned to New York State for a time, but came again to Albion where Ellery grew into manhood.
He was married March 29, 1874, at Dakota, Waushara County, Wisconsin, to Miss Ella Green. There is one foster daughter, Ellen Hill, Chicago. Mr. and Mrs. Hill lived for a year at Dakota, then moved to Berlin, Wisconsin, where they lived for thirty-nine years. Their Berlin home for many years was the Datus Lewis farm, and after the death of Mr. Lewis they took care of Mrs. Lewis, familiarly known as "Aunt Tacy." Mr. and Mrs. Lewis were the parents of the late Dr. A. H. Lewis, grandparents of Dr. Edwin Lewis. A. H. Lewis used to visit frequently the old home and his mother and spent considerable time with Mr. Hill. They were good friends. Mr. Hill always found great satisfaction in his helpful relationship to the Lewis family.
