I am trying to locate the burial place of my ggg grandfather, Leonard Hill and his son Emerald Jasper Hill. Both died somewhere along the Mormon trail close to the Fox river in Sept. 1846 while passing through Iowa. A Mr. Miller was sympathetic and allowed the Hill and Gardner families to use his smokehouse to stop in while they were ill. There Leonard and son died. As far as I know, Hill and son were buried in the Miller family cemetery. If this sounds like a familiar family story, any information you can provide about this Miller family would be greatly appreciated. Please post a reply or email me directly. Thank you!
