Francis Henderson Hill was born about 1842, probably at the family farm at Gilnahirk, County Down, Ireland. He was the son of Hugh Hill and Mary Henderson.
Francis emigrated to America in the 1860s and became a naturalized citizen in 1868[1]. One of the witnesses was Thomas H Henderson who was Francis' mother's cousin and had emigrated to America in the 1850s.
Francis might have been living with his uncle Francis Henderson in San Francisco, California in 1860[2].
Francis was left a bequest in the will of his father Hugh Hill in 1874[3].
In 1876 Francis was living in San Francisco, California[4].
In 1898 Francis was living in Nevada City, Nevada, California[5].
It is not known if Francis married or when he died.
