Excerpt from
The Hilton Family of Albany, New York, by Lewis Parker Abell, 1936
A typescript filed with the New York State Library

ANDREW HILTON, 3rd son of John Burgess Hilton, b. March 5, 1815 at Thorold, Ont., m. Helen Elliot, date uncertain, and had three daughters, Mary Jane, Margaret and Jennie and at least one son, Andrew E. Hilton, who resided in Detroit, but it is said that he had eight children altogether. This may have referred to his sons' family. One of the daughters is said to have married a Mr. Kelderhome.

Mark E. Hilton, a son of Andrew E. Hilton, - has resided in Los Angeles, Cal. since about 1915, is married but has no children. He conducts a modern barber-shop on Florence Ave., in southeast part of the city. He regrets their family records were lost in a fire destroying their home but hopes his sister, Mrs. Ethel Atkinson, of Maple City, Lelanaw County, Mich., may yet replace some of the records from memory.

In "Michigan Pioneer & Historical Society Reports & Collections", Vols. I to XV, may be found numerous references to Hilton individuals. Those under the names John. sheriff of St. Clair County, and of Robert, may be of members of this Hilton line.
