Liz Ilnicki sent some photos of her Hilton gr-gr-grandparents (Rev. William Harrison Hilton & Amanda Melvina Fuller) and her gr-gr-gr-grandparents (John Hickam Hilton and Martha Ann Agee) to the Scott Co Historical Society.

Listed below is the modified register report for John Hickam Hilton and Martha Ann Agee.

Thank you for having this up. I am descended from John H Hilton through Jefferson Beauregard Hilton. Nice to have a picture to put to a couple names in the file.
My wife is a direct descendant of John H. Hilton while I am a direct descendant of John Hickam. It is interesting that John Hickam bought farm land from Abraham Fulkerson (John H. Hiltons grandfather) and this land would later be owned by John H. Hilton. We never knew the “H” in John Hilton’s name was “Hickam”. This would suggest a strong relationship between these two families.
Stan Hickam & Lennea Derting Hickam
Rev William H Hilton is my Great-grandfather
Hello everyone, My grandma was Burl (Hilton) Giltner. She descended from David Jessee Hilton, who moved to Indiana in the late 1800s. I would love to get a copy of the book, Hiltons of Scott County, but cannot find it for sale anywhere. If anyone has an extra copy please let me know. My email is joseph.e.larue@gmail.com. Thank you, Joe
