Free DNA kit available to a Hillman with Sussex, England roots. However all Hillmans everywhere are invited to join. Big Y and "Discover More" can provide amazing results. We hope to find progressively more distant cousins and encourage them to test and, when those tests are upgraded to the Big Y level, to allow a mutual extending of our family trees backward in time. Confidentiality concerns will be most carefully respected. Picture: three generations of Hillmans - all part of the I-FTC36257 branch of FamilyTreeDNA's "Tree of Humankind" - pose for a picture likely in Hamilton, Ontario in about 1946. Left to right: Gordon (1939-2016), Allan (1936-2017), Grant (1935-1999), Bruce (1928-2001), Keith (1925-1982), their father Frank (1902-1975), and their grandfather Ernest (1878-1950). Thank you to Jean (Hillman) Shelton, who shared the picture, and to Emma (Bourne) Hillman (1899-1975) who usually took the family pictures. Animated version.

We gratefully acknowledge the work of Tom Hillman, whose work includes the making of professional quality movie props, for permission to use a picture of his reproduction of a coat of arms often associated with the Hillman name.
