Derbyshire Lookup Requests / Re: the mystery of William Hill
« on: Sunday 18 September 22 16:49 BST (UK)  »
How lovely to find someone I'm related to, albeit distantly. I am interested in learning more, all I had until I found this thread was the name Jemima and her father was William Millington. Do you know where the surname Millington comes in? A friend typed Jemima Millington into Ancestry and it came back as Jemima Hill. He also found that she was living with the Millingtons at one point and down as granddaughter so I am confused. The family tree does sound interesting,

Jemima was My Great Great Grandma, she married Jesse Sims in Ockbrook about 1864 and their son James, my Great Granddad was born about 1864 as well.  The Sims family were farmers in the Ockbrook/Borrowash area. They also had a son William and I think other children as well.

I cannot help you with William Hill but Jemima was one of my ancestors. I have the year of her birth as 1837 so it would not be registered.  She married in 1864 into a farming family, her husband died around 1915. I am sure it is the same family as I have her father as William Millington of Borrowash.
