My name is Patsy
Vinson and I will be serving you as the Hill County Coordinator
with the TXGenWeb project. I plan to work on researching at the
Hill County Courthouse for more information to place on these
web pages. There will be changes made to some of the pages so
that if you are on dial up instead of high speed internet, the
pages will load more efficiently for you. If you have any questions
or comments, please contact me at the below:

Your Coordinator
Hill County, Texas
was formed from Navarro County and came into her own 14 May 1853.
Dr. George Washinton Hill was the secretary of war and secretary
of the navy in Sam Houston's cabinet for whom the county is named.
After the annexation, Hill resumed the practice of medicine in
Navarro County.
