BIOGRAPHY: SOURCE: Averett Family History, 929.271 Ave 35a, by George W.G. Averett (grandson of George Gill,III and Jennett Hamilton)
John Averett(1780) emigrated to Kentucky and settled in Barren Co. He became acquainted with Jannett Hamilton Gill, born 5 Dec. 1786, daughter of George Gill III (1753) and Jennett Hamilton (1763). Great Grandfather, George Gill, Jr. (abt 1728) and his son, my grandfather George Gill III (1753), sometime before the war of 1776, came from Ireland to America and settled in Pennsylvania. Sometime before the Revolutionary War, Grandfather George Gill III, married Jennett Hamilton who was also from Ireland, or at least her parents came from Ireland. Great Grandfather George Gill,Jr.and Grandfather George Gill III, at the outbreak of the Revolution, enlisted in the army and fought under George Washington and other American Officers. They passed through many hardships and dangers through the whole of that war, being in one defeat (was the Summer's Surprise) and many victories.
Sometime after the surrender of Commander Wallace, George III and Jennett, immigrated to North Carolina and had one children, Mary Gill, born 12 Jan. or 22, 1781 or 9. Soon after they emigrated on pack animals to the Daniel Boone settlement in the wilds of Kentucky, there lived and fought with Daniel Boone in the early settlement of that state. They finally settled in Barren County Kentucky."
VARIATION: Elijah Averett born 1810 did temple work for his grandfather George Gill born 1753 and his greatgrandfather, Robert Gill. For this reason I have determined that his father is Robert and not George Gill as recorded in Ancestral Quest. Robert Gill is also mentioned as a member of the Fishing Creek Presbyterian Church in Chester County, South Carolina.Source: Elenor Halstead

Patrick held the benefit of a lease dated 1693 and granted to Patrick Hamilton of Granshaw, who in that year sold his inheritance in the Clanbrassil estate to Sir Robert Colvil who later disposed of the head lease to the Earl of Clanbrassel.
