Person:Clement Hill (8)

Birthdate

Several sources claim that Clement Hill's birthdate was 12 May 1641 in Compton Bassett, Wiltshire, England, but this date is problematic with Clement's likely marriage no later than 1654, when (if the 1641 date was correct) he would have been only 13 years old, and some 16 years younger than his wife. Clearly, additional research and sources are necessary.
