Notes for James HILTON
According to Lewis Parker Abell, he "succeeded to the ownership of
the farm in "fee simple" receiving deed from Van Rensselaers who
stated that among all their vast possessions there was not a farm
equalling the Hilton estate for fertility and capable handling, as a
token of which they received a set of six solid silver spoons which
are preserved among the family heirlooms. James Hilton was an active
man in the town and aided the Church with liberal contributions."
