Notes for Micael Sills: Michael came to America in 1766. His passage was paid for by his brother George Sill who had come over in 1760 as an indentured servant to John Woods. Michael served in the Revolutionary War as a private in Capt. Harris' company of Chester Co, PA. Michael died in 1814 and was burried on Mattas Farmyard, Bedford Twp, Bedford Co, PA. After Michael's death, Barbara moved with most of the children to Montgomery County, Ohio, where she died some time after.
