  • Notes  Married:
    • Marriage date based on age of son William Hill, 12, in the 1860 Floyd County census.

      The 1840 census reflects a "William Hill," age 30-40, with a son age 15-20. On the same page is the Robert M. George family (Mahala's family), in addition to other George families and affiliated surnames. It is likely that Mahala married a son from this family; the naming of their eldest son "William" supports this likelihood. There is another William Hill in the county at the same time, but the lack of proximity makes him a less likely candidate.
