John James3 Hilton, Sr.  (William2, Mr.1)  son of William and Ann / Mary / Josie 'Amey' Hilton, was born November 22, 1819 in South Carolina.

He married Mary B. Taylor about 1840.    I do not recall the source for Mary's maiden name
No further information about Mary, or the death of John

1850 Simpson Co Mississippi, household #427-427, shows John J. Hilton, age 32, born in SC, Mary, age 33, born in Ms, Laurinda, age 8, William J., age 6, Amy E., age 5, Mary J., age 3, John, age 4/12, all children born in Ms. Also in the home is Lourinda Garraway, age 18, born in Ms.

I do not  know the relationship of Lourinda Garraway, but feel she is possibly a sister of Mary.   They both may be sisters of Sarah, who is married to Thomas, brother of John.

1860 Harrisville Simpson Co Mississippi, household #64/64, has John J. Hilton, age 42, born in SC, Mary D., age 43, born in Ms, Renna, age 18, William J., age 16, Amy E., age 15, Mary J., age 12, Sarah A., age 8, Louisa S., age 6, Thomas W.*, age 5, Thomas W. Hilton, age 4 *, Nancy L., age 1, all children, born in Ms. Also in the home is: William H. Taylor, age 17, born in Mississippi

* this is how it is in the census!

1870 Brookhaven Lincoln Co Mississippi, page 103, household #473 / 473, has J.J. Hilton, age 52, born in SC, Mary Hilton age 52, born in Ms, Riny, age 29, Mary, age 22, S.-female- age 18, L.-female- age 16, Thomas , age 14, Nancy, age 11, Jefferson Wm.,* age 7, S.-female- age 4, all children born in Mississippi.

Jefferson, Wm. appears that his surname is Jefferson -- but I believe he is indeed a Hilton.

I was unable to locate this family in 1880, however, I did find a John Hilton, age 61, born in SC, in Family Search Organization, Beat 2, Copiah Co Mississippi, pg 97D with wife, Minteria, age 34, born in Ms, with daughters, Nettie, age 3, and Rebecca, age 1, who may be him and a new wife.

Children of  John Hilton and Mary Taylor are:

33 i. Laurinda4 Hilton
34 ii. William J. Hilton
35 iii. Amy E. Hilton
36 iv. Mary J. Hilton
