[R56.5]

married Elizabeth in Dent Co MO
Margaret is buried in Dobkins cemetery, Crawford Co MO

Apparently he died around 1862.
In Schermesser Farm cemetery, Dent Co MO is a William or James Rigsby who is listed as dying in the Civil War. Very likely that is Hillman.

He was a farmer.

[Are the children from a first marriage for Elizabeth, or from Hillman's second marriage? On the 1870 census Elizabeth and her husband have only her daughter Mary Rigsby with them, implying these are Hillman's.]
