Edgar Hill was born four miles southwest of Kellogg, February 20, 1877, and he
is the son of Joshua B. and Elizabeth (Stanley) Hill, who were born in Indiana.
There they grew to maturity, were educated and married, later coming to Iowa, and here became

County and there he worked during the crop seasons.
He received a good education at Pleasant View School, in this County,
after which he turned his attention to farming, which he has continued to the
present time, having located on the farm, which he now owns, in 1902. He has a
well-located and productive farm of one hundred and ten acres in sections 23 and

Hill was married December 25, 1892, to Buella Gibbs, whose birth occurred in
Kellogg, Iowa, December 13, 1878. Politically, Mr. Hill is a
Republican and, fraternally, he belongs to the Modern Woodmen, and Mrs. Hill is
a member of the Christian Church. They are highly respected by all who know
them. The Past and Present of Jasper County, Gen. James B. Weaver, Editor-In-Chief, 1912 B.F. Bowen Co., Indianapolis, IN, p. 1286. |
