Hi I am researching William Hill married to Frances LEE 1817 probably at Warrington.

Known children were: William HILL bc1830 Warrington married to Elinor GRINDLEY at Liverpool and Jonathon HILL bc1819 married to Ann MILLINGTON and Thomas HILL bc 1826.

William and Elinor emigrated to Australia with their children.
Four of Jonathon's sons emigrated to Australia.
Nothing more known of Thomas.

This sounds as if it could be a likely candidate for your Thomas given the name of one of his sons:

1891 census of Warrington
RG12/3074, folio 125, page 27
11 Stanley Street

Thomas HILL Head M 66 Earthenware Dealer Lancashire Warrington
Martha do Wife M 64 Earthenware Dealer do Cadishead
Thomas do Son S 31 Wire Mill Labourer do Warrington
Jonathan do Son S 21 Earthenware Dealer do do

They family are in Warrington in the 1881 census and in the 1871 census:

RG10/3903, folio 81, page 20
12 Stanley Street

Thomas HILL Head M 35 Earthenware Hawker Warrington Lancashire
Martha do Wife M 48 do do
William do Son 15 Wire Mill Labourer do do
James do Son 13 Factory Operative do do
Thomas do Son 11 Scholar do do
John C do Son 8 do do do
Jonathan do Son 5 do do do

There is a marriage registration in the September qtr 1851 at Warrington reg district, vol 20, page 922 on FreeBMD of a Thomas HILL and one of the other names on the page is that of a Martha DANIELS - could this be your Thomas & Martha?

Could this be your HILL family in the 1841 census of Warrington:

HO107/521/11, folio 21, page 33
Back Cropley Street

Jonathan HILL 20 Labourer
Ann do 20 Fustian Cutter
Frances do 1

and next house

William HILL 47 Fustian Cutter
Thomas do 15 Blower
William do 10

All born in the county
