Although I'm a relative newcomer in researching my ancestors and those of my wife (Susan Dressler Ballard Hilton), progress has been made in the past several years--mostly because of visits to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and through many wonderful connections made via the Internet. Norma Dressler Ballard (Susan's mother) also has been of tremendous help. My family genealogy pages are devoted primarily to research on these surnames:
These pages will be updated frequently as more information comes in via on-line research and family detective work, so check back often to see what kind of progress has been made. We also hope to be adding photos soon. Please contact Bill Hilton Jr. if you have corrections, additions, questions, or new information.
