HILL. 1. Ralph, was early at Plymouth. The tradition, in his
family, that he came from Billericay is prob. and strengthened by the fact
that there was a clergyman bearing the same name in Essex, 1645-69,
(See David's Annals of Nonconformity in Essex, p. 440), whose wife was
Persis , and who had dau. Sarah bap. at Shalford, 1645, Aug. 10. In
1650. he was at Ilidgwell, "'a godly preaching minister;." afterwards, at
Pattiswick. where he was 'ejected,' and in 16()9, he is reported at Sheldon,
" having a conventicle there." Our Ealpli Hill "of Wellingsly," prob. a
locality in Plymouth, sold 1643, Sept. 16, for £12. to Stephen Wood,
house and garden, ''upland at Wobery," 12 acres or thereabout; and we
soon after find him in Woburn, where he was freeman, 1647 ; Selectman in
1649. He joined in the settlement of Shawshin as early as any; and
lived on ' the farm.' a mile south-west of the village, his house standing a
little west of the place Avhere Mrs. Judkins, his descendant, now lives. In
April. 1663, he gave the town one-half acre of land for a " buring place."
and on the 29th, he died. — his own liody. doubtless, the first to be laid in
the old 'south' burying ground. His wife d. and he m. 1638. {Savage.)
