    • From: Jas T Kesterson Sr
      Subject: Masten Tate Hill
      Date: Sat, 11 Jul 1998 21:45:18 -0400

      I am looking for information on my grandfather, Masten Tate Hill who lived and worked on a farm in Sunbright,Morgan Co.,Tenn. around 1930.
      Masten was born in Anderson Co.,Tenn.in 1855. I don't know why he went to Sunbright, because he had no relatives there. I am trying to find out if he married and had children in Morgan County,Tenn. He had 17 children by 3 different women. If any one has any information they can share I would appreciate it.
      Thanks, Barbara (Hill Kesterson).

      **********************************************
      Jesse Kesterson and daughter Judy talked with Barbara Kesterson about2003. Barbara said that Masten married again after Harriet Dunn Hill divorced him. His wife was a Hill (Florence B.). She died and Masten put his 5-6 children from this marriage in an orphanage and left them to go somewhere else. No substantiation as of yet. J Solis 10-12-07
