   HENRY C. HILL (deceased), son of John and Jane (Johnson) Hill, was born in
Greene County, Ind., December 13, 1834, and was always a resident of his native
county. He received a liberal literary education, read law with William Mack,
now of Terre Haute, and after his graduation from the Law Department of the
State University in 1859, formed a partnership with his preceptor and embarked
in the practice of his profession. He was a man of keen discernment, possessed
of superior qualifications for his profession, but in the midst of a successful
career was compelled to relinquish active pursuits by reason of ill-health,
which culminated in his death May 4, 1865. Mr. Hill was a member of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, a Democrat, and for some time held the office of
County School Examiner. His father migrated from North Carolina to Greene County
at an early day, and became one of our early pioneers. June 25, 1861, witnessed
the marriage of Henry C. Hill and Miss Emma Ritter. Mrs. Hill is yet living in
Greene County, where she was born, raised and has always resided.
