He was named in the will of his grandmother, Isobel Lowery, dated 11 Dec 1809, probated in 1812, and that of his father Andrew Mckillip in June 1810. He signed a power of attorney in Logan Co., Ky. in 1818, when he sold land that he had inherited from his father to his brother-in-law, Michael Fair. From there, he moved by way of Lauderdale Co., Tn. and Morgan Co., Alabama, to Fayette Co., Alabama. The family lived for several years in Morgan Co., near the city of Falkville. Three of the children were married there. The move to Fayette County probably occurred in the mid 1830's."

    Notes:

    Name:

    On this date her husband, Hugh McKillip, signs a quitclaim against her share of her late father's estate; she does not sign it and was therefore deceased

    Notes:

    Hugh McKillip may have been the father of as many as 17 children; those shown here may belong to either wife; but it is likely, because Andrew and John were named executors, that Andrew was the eldest son of Ms. Hanna while John was the eldest son of Agnes (5 Mar 2018)

    Birth order of children uncertain; it can only be speculated which children were of each wife.
