John's will was registered 22 FEB 1802 and probated 24 SEP 1802. It mentions father Isaac Hillard and his wife Sarah; brother Thurston Hillard; sister Polly Henry; and friends Craig Richee and Andrew Munroe.

In 1800 census John W. Hillard, Esq is recorded as male 26-45. In the household is a male 10-16, female 0-10, and female 16-26.

John W. Hilliard, esq. (01010-10100).

Daughter per Barbour.

I suggest he is either a son or grandson of Isaac and Sarah (White) Hillard because of the Redding, Connecticut heritage of his wife Abiah.
