This is a personal page for me, Aaron J. Hill. I have been researching since 1989 after becoming interested in the family history. In 1995, I learned of the Internet and started using it to further my work.

Using the now-defunct GeoCities platform, I designed a genealogy site compiling all of the data I had at the time.1 It only exists now as a digital copy and stopped being updated eons ago.

I have since moved on to blogging, which helps me keep track of my notes and progress, or lack thereof. It is very useful, because one can always write, even if a line of inquiry turns out being unrelated. I always separate what I can prove from my theories about what I think happened.

I try to upload as much material as possible and make it publicly available, for anyone interested and for any future researchers who may come along. I have connected with many people because I wrote about a particular subject on my blog.

1. Strangely, not all GeoCities pages are dead. Some live on, just not mine.
