  2. 5.  Alice Thomas was born 4 Jun 1713; died 19 Jan 1777, East Greenwich, RI.

    Notes:

    I am making an assumption that Alice Thomas is the mother of Thomas Tillinghast, son of Phillip Tillinghast. Benjamin is the son of Phillip & Alice (Thomas) Tillinghast. Therefore, I am placing these two sons in the same family group.

    Children:
    1. Mary Tillinghast was born 5 Aug 1734.
    2. Pardon Tillinghast was born 2 Feb 1735/36, East Greenwich, RI; died 3 May 1805, Exeter, RI; was buried , Old Baptist Churchyard, Hist Cem 39, Exeter, RI.

  3. 6.  Thomas Hill, Sr. was born Abt 1692, Prudence Island, RI (son of Jonathan HILL, Jr. and Unknown Wife); died 20 Apr 1768, North Kingstown, RI; was buried , Thomas Hill Lot, Forge Rd., North Kingstown, RI.

    Notes:

    Thomas is called Deacon Thomas, dec'd, in the 1761 Warwick marriage record of his son Nathaniel. However, a Hill manuscript at NK Library says he died 20 Apr 1768. I think Nathaniel's marriage was recorded later, after his father had died.

    Thomas was a member of the Six-Principle Baptist Church of East Greenwich, from 1743; he was a deacon and frequently hosted meetings at his home. He contributed money to repair the meetinghouse in 1763 (source: "Elder John Gorton and the Six-Principle Baptist Church of East Greenwich," ed. Cherry Fletcher Bamberg, pub 2001 by RI Genealogical Society, p 490 etc.)

    Thomas Hill and Jabez Greene (1673-1741) of Potowomut built a dam to power a sawmill and gristmill. They also ran a forge, and I think that is where the name Forge Rd. came from.

    The will of Thomas Hill of NK was recorded 9 April 1768, proved 9 May (year burned away). It mentions wife Ann; sons Thomas, Matthew, Nathaniel dec'd, and Caleb; three dtrs (names burned away); and grand-dtr Mary Hill d/o of my son Nathaniel dec'd.

    Thomas married Rebekah Allen 25 Mar 1731, North Kingstown, RI. Rebekah (daughter of Thomas Allen and Anna Barnes) was born 2 Sep 1701; died 12 Aug 1744; was buried , Thomas Hill Lot, Forge Rd., North Kingstown, RI. [Group Sheet]


  4. 7.  Rebekah Allen was born 2 Sep 1701 (daughter of Thomas Allen and Anna Barnes); died 12 Aug 1744; was buried , Thomas Hill Lot, Forge Rd., North Kingstown, RI.

    Notes:

    When Rebekah married Thomas, she was the widow of Joseph Cole, and he was the widower of her sister Elizabeth.
