If you are descended from William Hill, then your ancestress appears to be Martha "Patsy" Wade, not her sister, Mary. Martha is buried with William Hill and records for their children seem to confirm the relationship.

Mary "Polly" married Henry Hines and is buried with him.

Martha (Wade) Hill Memorial

Mary (Wade) Hines Memorial

Do you have source records that prove your information is correct?
